[Elecraft] If it plugs in, then it should work

[G4GNX]

I once tried to idiot-proof a Theatre Organ console on its lift, by using a 
very stout multi-way connector for power and lift control, along with much 
smaller connectors for signals etc., There was no way that it was possible 
to put the wrong plug in the wrong socket, not even with a hammer!!!

So what did the contractor/builders do? They did not read the large yellow 
and black notice on the rear of the console that instructed them to remove 
all plugs before moving the console. The result was that they gave the 2 ton 
console a hefty shove to start it moving and smashed the sh*t out of the 
connectors.

Well, I didn't see that one coming!

The local Micro-Center store sells T-shirts that say "When you have it
idiot-proofed, we'll build a better idiot."
