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.

A civilization is a heritage of beliefs, customs, and knowledge slowly accumulated in the course of centuries, elements difficult at times to justify by logic, but justifying themselves as paths when they lead somewhere, since they open up for man his inner distance.
