Into the Deep End of the Pool: The Making of an Engineer | ENR

Into the Deep End of the Pool: The Making of an Engineer | ENR - - This is by Charles Thorton, founder of Thorton Tomasetti PC.

Loved the part regarding the three schemes for every project:

1. The Wild and Crazy
2. The Small Step for Mankind
3. The Plain Vanilla

The Wild and Crazy was never selected - - but left a lasting impression.  Clients usually selected something between The Wild and Crazy and The Small Step for Mankind.
