Great, just great: the planes we were flying on in Japan last month have just been grounded due to safety concerns. A "burning smell in the cockpit and cabin", wheeeeeeee.

Illusions commend themselves to us because they save us pain and allow us to enjoy pleasure instead. We must therefore accept it without complaint when they sometimes collide with a bit of reality against which they are dashed to pieces.
