Don\’t Call It An Accident

Three lives are lost and counting in the Crandall Canyon mine in Utah. The flamboyant, camera-hogging mine owner, Bob Murray, has called this a \”once in a lifetime\” accident, like a car crushed by a boulder suddenly dislodged. These horrors happen.

Yes, but when we add one plus one plus one, we don\’t call three an accident. We call it a product, a sum, the result. And the Utah disaster wasn\’t random; it is the product of conditions just waiting to be added up.
