   RE: [xml-dev] The Airplane Example (was Re: [xml-dev] StreamingXML)

Umm... it may not catch all but it may catch most and 
that may be good enough or as good as it gets.

The Saturn V was triple redundant.  Pogo effects weren't 
well understood.   Lightning was.  In both cases, catastrophes 
were avoided.  In the first case, the system survived the 
pogo effect well-enough to be studied and handled.  In the 
second case, the systems could be reset in real time.

Good point, especially re: my surprise that redundancy didn't save
Ariane, but again I'd say such catastrophic failures are beyond the
reach of most techniques, including static type checking.
