We have not heard any signs of life from the people in the cars since the rescue operation began," said Richard Seguin, director of the Laval fire department. "That does not mean they are dead, but we need to get them out as quickly as possible. "Portions of structures like this fall off all the time, and most of the time that does not affect the stability of the bridge. It is just the cosmetic part of the bridge," [Mario St-Pierre] said. "This bridge looks like it snapped under its own weight," said A. Ghani Razaqpur, president of the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering. "This is highly unusual. If one cable snapped, it could have a trigger effect."

THE Winnipeg Free Press editorial Tension on campus (June 6) claims that: "Every large organization needs a dreamer to grow it bigger and better, and it needs a bean-counter to ensure that the dreams do not become nightmares." Unfortunately, as Thomas Sowell, the American economist, pointed out in his book Inside American Education: The Decline, The Deception, The Dogma, colleges and universities have many more dreamers than bean-counters. Two examples from the University of Manitoba will illustrate this point. Why pick on the faculty of engineering? Earlier this year, James Blatz, associate head of civil engineering, wrote in the Free Press (Jan. 21) that he had to cancel courses because his department was being "strangled" by the lack of funding. More specifically, he said: "The poli...

If there's heavy rains that raise the water level, that will become an issue, but as long as that doesn't become a problem, they'll continue," said Lieut. Amelia Huffman, a police spokeswoman. "It's a horrible, tragic event. But it could have been a hell of a lot worse," said Kent Harries, assistant professor of civil and environmental engineering in the University of Pittsburgh's School of Engineering. Minnesota officials say they don't yet know how many cars were travelling the span during the collapse. But judging by the length of road, the lanes that were open, time of day and widely accepted traffic formulas, Northwestern University engineering professor Joseph Schofer estimated that 100 to 150 vehicles were on the bridge.
