What kinds of mistakes does an engineer make that causes a train to derail? Too fast on a turn or a known bump or something? Edit: Oh yeah I think I remember being on the ski train from Denver to Winter Park that had to slow down or stop for a while because outside temperatures made the tracks too far apart or too close or something. Is that the kind of operator error you are referring too? Maybe driving on icy tracks too?

I respect your ideology, I believe we should be good stewards of all life on earth. However, I have trouble with where to draw the line. Do you not eat honey and are you anti beekeeping? Does a life form have to have some minimal level of intelligence to qualify? Are you be against mosquito control? New research has been uncovering plant intelligence , how do you decide where to draw the line?
