Thanks for such worm words, but in any case, I'm feeling today as a job
responsable who realizes about an error.
We have exemples averyday when a plane crashes, a bridge or a building
collapses, etc.
The fact is that there where 2 errors joined. The second one was not having
specificated an e-mail adress to receive any "mistaken-writed" e-mail, which
ought to save the information...
At last, this was the biggest error: Not counting with a rescue net.
In my idiom, we say: "No s'en sap mai prou" Man know never sufficientlly
(Its writen in Catalan)
Thanks a lot!
