(sort of) Quote of the week.
But engineers insisted yesterday that the relatively low death toll vindicated the bridge design.
I'm sure that'll be a great comfort to those who lost their loved ones.
At least those caught up in the Minnesota bridge collapse can be glad they got some media coverage. Last night's 10 O'Clock News on BBC1 had a report lasting a full 30 seconds on the floods on the Indian subcontinent which have killed at least 1,100 and forced 19 million people to flee their homes. Immediately following it was the report on the bridge collapse, which occupied a slot at least 3 minutes long.
