<BR> 
Any wire or tube cut to length will be too short.<BR>
 <BR>
Identical units tested under identical conditions will not be
identical in the field.<BR>
 <BR>
After any machine or instrument has been fully assembled,
 extra components will be found on the bench.<BR>
 <BR>
A dropped tool will land where it can do the most damage
 (also known as the law of selective gravitation).<BR>
 <BR>
Components that must not and cannot be assembled improperly will be.<BR>
 <BR>
Any error that can creep in, will.  It will be in the direction that
will do the most damage.<BR>
 <BR>
All constants are variable.<BR>
 <BR>
In any given computation, the figure that is most obviously correct
will be the source of error.<BR>
 <BR>
The most logical way to assemble components will be the wrong way.<BR>
 <BR>
In any given miscalculation, the fault will never be placed if more
that one person is involved.<BR>
 <BR>
Dimensions will always be expressed in the least usable terms.<BR>
 <BR>
After the last 26 mounting screws are removed from an access plate,
 it will be discovered that the wrong access plate has been removed.<BR>
 <BR>
The probability of a dimension being omitted from
a set of instructions is directly proportional to its importance.<BR>
 <BR>
It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious.<BR>
