What do you mean by "mistake"? Are Enron, WorldCom, Tyco, "mistakes"?

"Mistakes" never get written about. Frauds however (see Enron, etc) have books full of the 'reasons' they got away for as long as they did. Run a Google search for accounting fraud stories.

I prefer the site that comes up when I enter "big mistake" without the quotes and click on "I'm Feeling Lucky". :-D
