physics

"In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes."
Benjamin Franklin

There's one more--physics.

What happens when a train goes 100+ mph into a curve that is rated for 50 mph? derailment. carnage.     Amtrak derailment     It's physics--centripetal force

I pray for those who died, their families and those who were injured in the Amtrak train derailment.

What happens when structures are unable to withstand forces applied to them?    Failure. destruction. carnage.     Watergate garage      Nepal earthquake

I pray that the Silver Spring Transit Center doesn't become another example of the unrelenting, unyielding laws of physics, resulting in property damage, injury and death.
