As a great and famous (albeit imaginary) man once said on many occasions, "Make it so." Words of advice from a fictional universe, perhaps -- but definitely words to live by for practitioners of the ICT cabling installation trade, confronted daily by a plethora of real-world mini-tragedies, as photographed on the job site by social media posters to Reddit's 'Cablefail' sub-community. The final frontier?
