Would that be a JFK moment as in sleeping with a woman that isn't your wife? I don't remember the when, the where, or the what... just remember thinking at the time... when people loose at Russian Roulette... why is it considered an accident (or in this case, a disaster.). These days I think whole space program is built by people on a deadline, trying to stay under budget, and there is more politics, ego and nationalism in that system than rocket fuel (not to mention a room full of the brightest of the bright that never thought that a contained space with a pure oxygen environment and a thousand electrical contacts might be a bit of a fire hazard).
