There is that. Personally I put in the hours, took the written, and never 
followed through. There were days and days and on the not 100% days I 
wasn't confident I would do the right thing when the shit hit the fan. Or 
the fan stopped working for that matter.

Rationally I know a plane is about a thousand times safer than doing 100 
mph on the interstate on a bike but I never claimed to be rational. I'm 
not sure my programming is really rational, but that's a philosophical 
argument.
