Dear Editor,
Re: [Matthew Claxton opinion column Failures are fascinating, 91原创 Advance Times, Dec. 2.
鈥楶roject Habakkuk鈥� refers to a Biblical story from 612 BC regarding the destruction of Jerusalem. Similarly so to the destructions caused between Germany and Britain 1940 to 1945, when scientists were building 鈥渋ndestructible鈥� ice floating boats.
Ingenious but not practical did not mean failures. Experiences aren鈥檛 necessary mistakes but part of a strategy.
In other words, never be afraid to do something new. Remember, amateurs built the Ark. Professionals built the Titanic.
George Lieuwen, Murrayville
