It’s amazing that we can land a rover on Mars and get the thing to patrol around for over a year all while broadcasting images back to Earth and yet we’re unable to invent scaffolding that doesn’t malfunction. Today, two workers were rescued after the scaffolding basket gave way leaving it dangling at a perilous angle, 60 stories above the street. They were eventually pulled to safety through a window in the building. |Newsday|
