I used to work in sub-contract electronic engineering and I told my bosses that I didn't want to do defence work. So I ended up building a bunch of equipment for coal mining and civil aviation. This has killed far more people than the defence work would have done.

Did these civil aviation devices helped anyone move more efficiently from place A to place B? I often move from place A and place B and happily accept all the risk involved. Absolved! Next!
