All accidents are, at the root, due to pilot error. Sometimes, though, the
pilot's only error is in getting out of bed that day.....

I don't agree. The DC-10 in Sioux City IA (Capt Hays); an MD 80 ntype
crask in the Pacific, The Airbus in New York soon after 9/11, etc are
mechanical issues that I would not attribute to the pilot(s).
