PMI's Practice Standard for Work Breakdown Structure - Third Edition says: Experienced project managers know that there are many things that can go wrong in projects, regardless of how successful the project managers are in the planning and execution of their work. Project failures, however, can often trace back to a poorly developed or nonexistent WBS (page 54).

What level of documentation, if any, do you maintain for the work products that are included in your project's WBS?

I see where one young boy has just passed 500 hours sitting in a treetop. There is a good deal of discussion as to what to do with a civilization that produces prodigies like that. Wouldn't it be a good idea to take his ladder away from him and leave him up there?
