    In the early days of commercial jets, the de Havilland Comet had square windows. After two crashes and thorough investigation it was found that the corners caused catastrophic weaknesses in the fuselage. This was caused by metal fatigue (take a thin piece of steel and bend it repeatedly and eventually it will snap). Circular windows distribute the stress rather than concentrating them on particular corners.

Philosophy

Each of us has his own philosophy in life. We live by those terms every day. The world is full of mysteries and questions like life does. In the never ending search for the meaning of life and how to deal with it, many philosophers seek knowledge to give us an answer. A part of philosophy explains an invisible bond shared by everyone in this world. Simply saying that whatever you do affects someone around you. It sounds more like a story in a movie but, yes philosophy is always applied in it. It's a broad topic to begin with and the simple philosophy to live by is to always choose the brighter side.
