That reminds me of this story about removing empty boxes from a production line.

> and six months (and $8 million) later a fantastic solution was delivered — on time, on budget, high quality and everyone in the project had a great time.

I don't believe this story

Funny, but obviously not real. If the guys were tired of "tired of walking over every time the bell rang", the number of defects detected wouldn't be 0.

1.Bell is ringing too much and people are tired of walking over: defects > 0

2.Put fan there to blow empty boxes: now defects == 0

I don't see the problem.
