Yeah, The union should buy all their victims the nicest coffins made,
which would be non union. They already had a building fall in on them,
they don't need the bottom of their coffin to drop out.

From the snippets that have gotten out so far, they dropped
something and broke one of the sway-links between the crane and the
building while they were 'jacking up' the crane. Which in and of
itself shouldn't have dropped the crane IF they were following the
proper procedures with the crane properly balanced and no wind...
