	Hi Bogdan, Very good is a person to stay on top of your game. But have and negative Moments in our life. Important is how we think about a situation. In life if we lose we may not get a fresh start. But if we lose a game, we must try again. Maria

	Hi Bogdan, I'm not sure about this one. I don't think either should fill us with deepest despair. I think that we have all, at one time or another failed to realize a possiblity. To be eaten up in despair about it seems alittle over board. Instead we should take a look at our lost possiblities, note them, and make a decision to watch more closely for opportunities. On the other hand, I have a little poet in me , and we do tend to go overboard.

	Hi Nick, It is true that we shouldn't be filled with deepest despair over anything, yet we are and this is what this quote is talking about. The moral of this quote for me is that there is no point to dwell on what could have been but look at what is ahead of us. Bogdan

Hi Bogdan,

Born in Dublin on June 3, 1810 as the son of the factory-owner JOHN MALLET, he entered Trinity College in Dublin at the age of 16 and was the awarded four years later the B.A. degree. In 1831 he joined the his father as a partner in the factory that carried out all kind of technical engineering tasks, e.g. constructing the roof of St. Geogre Church that weighed 133 tons, the construction of bridges, railway stations or canons. During this time he wrote the important treatise on the dynamics of earthquakes (1846), he carried out blasting experiments for determining the propagation speed in sand and in solid rock (1851, 1862) and wrote detailed reports about the facts and phenomena of earthquakes for the British Association (1850-1858). Until 1852 MALLET did not experience an earthquake himself, as Ireland is a typically aseismic area. He only witnessed the earthquake on November 2, 1852 in Great Britain. But MALLET could have a direct experience of the destructive force of earthquakes only after the earthquake in Naples on December 16, 1857, when he visited this area a few months later with financial support by the Royal Society. After his return he moved to London in 1861. There he worked not only as a scientist but also as a consulting engineer and editor of the Practial Mechanic's Journal. During the last seven years of his life he was totally blind. He died on November 5, 1881.
