Big Dig Death! Stay Away From Those Tunnels!

Earlier this week, a woman from the Jamaica Plain neighborhood of Boston was killed when 3 tons of concrete fell on top of the car she was riding in with her husband while they were going through a tunnel to Logan Airport Monday night.  It's a total mess out there.  The officials (Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney and other government types) have been on this as soon as it happened.

I didn't know the victim, but this is awful.  The trouble with the government officials is that they don't know how to do things correctly.  Most of them are more concerned about office politics that getting the job done.  If they hired a contractor who was great at constructing tunnels instead of someone who has good social skills, no one would have died this week.
