This is a question Expensive Mistakes

coopsweb asks "What's the most expensive mistake you've ever made? Should I mention a certain employee who caused 4 hours worth of delays in Central London and got his company fined £500k?"

No points for stories about the time you had a few and thought it'd be a good idea to wrap your car around a bollard. Or replies consisting of "my wife".

Not myself but...
well tellnig this will most probably reveal the person.. should said persons be rawling le tinternet...

Anyway... My old geology tutor strange as it may seem used to actually have a proper job... in the real world.. and we're not just talking about for 5 minutes before he failed and had to go into teaching...

No my tutor was a Dr. in Geology... and was exiled from that lovely country of Yeomen... you know where they chop of peoples heads with rusty pigeons...

apparantly the yemonise gov. had been sureveying an area for years.. plowing money into oil exploration... but with very little luck... Said person came on the scene, made a hand ful of discovery's over a 2 week period... and I cant remember the entirity of the story... but essentially... well... the yeomonise gov. wasnt too happy with the whole affair...

Apparently it's de rigeur among today's hip, fashionable youth to emulate e. e. cummings whenever possible.

That, or they're just lazy bastards.

Nah, just too lazy to use punctuation
or capitalize letters either.



I know. because although I'm not all that young or hip, I'm often too lazy to capitalize.
