?Doctors can bury their mistakes. Architects can only grow ivy over
theirs.?
-Architectus Frustricus

Shielding the light is like growing ivy, and flipping the switch to OFF
is like burying it, but nobody wants to admit to their mistakes,
so the rest of us get to live with the results. -sd

PS: How come the rest of us get fix it on our own time and nickel
when we make mistakes, or was the mistake hiring the original
designer?
