Oh, I knew exactly which Who you were referring to; just having a bit of fun. I stopped watching when he left the show.

Hi All,
I work for a very risk adverse company. One of their aim is every day you go home feeling the same if not better when you go home. I have identified a (in my opinion) major risk, by that some one said have a look at this. The product is now called by Test & Hardware as'Legal Case on a Tray', Production already call it 'Death in a box', I think it needs altering, Hardware is happy, the drawing office is happy, production is very happy, Inspection 'oooh you can't change that, it's worked for years, the people that use it know how to use it, so it's dangerous to change', Hmmm, If you don't pay attention when plugging it, 'KABOOM'... because it's never happened don't mean it won't, surely! 
I have made enough noise about it so we are covered internally but...

I would suggest to let the product be inspected by a certification institution or company. If it passes, you can even place a sticker on it and use the certification for advertising.
If not (which I expect according to your post), it must be fixed. Then you will usually also get informed if the product does not conform to specific (country or region like EC) rules or laws.

Quote: certification institution or company
And there is the rub, it is of the generation where all sorts of certification were claimed and non-was. They won't send it to certification as will fail and questions will be asked about other...All I can is thank ![Green Alien | [Alien]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/alien.gif) my name is not any of the docs...

If they send it out for certification and it fails, they've just increased their liability, and certainly their culpability. Once you know you have no excuse to have not known . . .

It seems they know already and don't certify for that reason. So the liability would not increase much. It is already at a high level and not fixing it can be treated as negligent.

I had a similar discussion with a railway company recently about the dangers of over-crowding. They denied that there's a problem, saying that basically that there was no issue because nothing bad had happened yet.
In other words: "everything is safe until it goes wrong." That cladding on Grenfell would be a prime example of the flaw in that approach and we all know that the Titanic was unsinkable ...
Probably not a bad idea to register your concerns in some small way, even if just in an email to your line manager. It might not prevent any calamities but it will at least show that you weren't the one with your head in the sand.

Well I have done that the Manager said take it up with... so I did, now there is one holdout against the 'Mod Strike'... so maybe my 'butt' covering exercise has done some good!

It's as much as you can do to kick it upstairs.

Well bearing in mind it's one the products we make that has not disappeared after six months you'd think it was policy to do a good job...

Reading "Horny african" I thought of it and reading on confirmed it.

Rondò Veneziano - Arlecchino[^]
So I just had to wake up at 6:45, which really isn't much earlier than my regular 08:00 and even a lot later than my previous 05:00.
However, it hit me like a rock and for some reason I was reminded of a very specific period from my morning newspaper delivering days (which I did for about eight years, do that's not saying much).
Anyway, there was a time I woke up to Rondò Veneziano every morning and that's what I'm listening to now.
So it's a bit of an impulsive and last minute SOTW, but surely one I can get behind 
It's kind of like he (or actually they) brought baroque into the 20th century (maybe their latest work includes dubstep and they even got it to the 21st, I don't know).
Anyway, enjoy

Wow, especially Non-eternal is really very great!
It somehow reminds me of a lot of movie and game soundtracks all at once
I'm definitely going to listen to more Max Richter
