ENR's Oil-Spill Editorial Is 'An Assault'

摘要

Your editorial ("The Gulf Oil-Spill Disaster Is Engineering's Shame," 6/7 p. 56) is an insult and assault on the engineering profession. ENR should retract the editorial because it misplaces responsibility, cites an honorable profession as something far less than deserved, makes an outlandish connection between disasters such as Three Mile Island, the Challenger, Hurricane Katrina and the BP Oil Spill and the engineering profession as a whole.
