Does this go to show the value of preparedness? Or does it illustrate the
power of luck? Or some intersection? I've often been lucky about when and
how stuff breaks down. And I've known people with what looked like real
computer jinxes. On the one hand, you never want to just trust your luck. On
the other, if luck can be involved, could it be that the profession selects
for those who have it?
