A fact from Janet Bonnema appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 6 July 2017 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that in 1972, Colorado engineering technician Janet Bonnema legally challenged the superstition that a woman who went underground into a tunnel or mine brought bad luck?

The main thrust of the "Eisenhower Tunnel" section was the supposed "bad luck" that would happen if a woman entered the tunnel.
Well?
Did anything considered to be "bad luck" ever happen?
If not, it needs to be stated/included to the effect that "Nothing ever happened that was considered, or thought to be, bad luck ever happened during the time that Bonnema worked on the project or due to her entering the tunnel." 2600:8800:787:F500:C23F:D5FF:FEC5:89B6 (talk) 05:31, 6 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
I did not see that stated in any of the sources I researched. If you can find a source, please add it with your statement. Yoninah (talk) 12:34, 6 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
