ICAM that the human nature speculation after an accident, when trying to
put the pieces together, should be done constructively and with respect.
But as you said, much of the speculation comes out of trying to learn
from the event and what is known about it, so we don't make the same
mistake. For that reason, I think speculation and the offshoot
discussions that arise from it can be a very beneficial thing...sounds
overly dramatic, but the resultant thinking and conversation might save
someone else.
