Not to mention, the civil engineer's work can't be patched post-release, and tends to have more severe consequences if it's buggy.

Funny you should say, a couple of days after I read http://www.duke.edu/~hpgavin/ce131/citicorp1.htm via hn: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1325393

I agree, though -- being responsible for people's lives has a certain je ne sais quoi when it comes to stress levels.
