Talent.  Real Talent. 

Make things idiot proof and the world will just produce better idiots.

I had a friend who was an electrician, and owned his own company.  He worked hard to grow from zero, to a full-time one-man shop, to eventually working in the office or doing repairs on items customers brought to his shop while his three two-man teams did the major work.  He would see something like this "indestructible case" being damaged, shake his head, and say "you could take a one inch by one inch by one inch cube of pure stainless steel, give it to the public, and they would ruin it the first day."
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

Our saying about folks at the plant where I worked as, "That idiot could split an anvil with a rubber hammer."
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

"When it comes to the enemy, just because they ain't pullin' a trigger, doesn't mean they ain't totin' ammo for those that are."~PegLeg
