Ep 121 - 5 Biggest QMS Disasters Part 3 - iPhone 4 and a big Dam(n) Failure

We continue the Top 5 Quality Management System Failures of All
Time-a review of an article written by Domenic Tramontana.  We
quickly discuss a design flaw with the iPhone 4-an antenna in the
wrong place.  Kyle tells us about the process of testing and
validation.  Included in this episode is the Teton Dam. 
Construction began on the dam in 1972, and was completed in
November of 1975.  On June 3, 1976, two small seeps were
observed.  On June 5, 1976 the embankment breached and there
was a rapid release of the entire contents of the reservoir. 
This flooded 5 counties, 300 square miles and traveled 155 miles
downstream. We discuss the planning, lack of communication and lack
of sufficient treatment that caused this incident.  So many
different steps could have prevented this tragedy.  We discuss
them all.
