Clearing The Air

Everytime I see the shuttle launch.....


I am reminded of what Steve Buscemi's character in Armageddon says while being strapped in before lift-off:

and I paraphrase

"Hey Harry, you realize we're sitting on top of a ship with 4 million pounds of fuel, 270,000 moving parts, all built by the lowest bidder?"

Kind of puts it all in perspective doesn't it?
