Priorities

Or, how an engineer and a politician approaches a problem...

"Let's work the problem, people.
  Let's not make things worse by guessing."
  (~NASA Flight Director Gene Kranz, during the Apollo 13 crisis - 1970)

"I want to know whose ass to kick!"
  (~President Barack Hussein Obama, during the gulf oil spill - 2010)
