 I see no reason why someone would have to apologize

for knowing (or being...) better - which is for what the word "humility" 

stands in the quoted statement, as I understand it.



Doing nothing guarantees no mistakes are made.



Whether the knowledge gap between designing an ark and a ship

like Titanic makes the above statement apply is something I would

not question - or should I apologize for thinking so? ...



 Being cautious not to err is something totally different from

being opportunistic. Or should I accept the "oh come on,

there is nothing like mafia-state, those conspiracy cranks

make it all up, everybody (meaning all media) says so" disregarding

my own senses and experience?
