screams for TIVO.


You are being very kind, tonight. It sounds like it will have all the drama
of watching paint dry, to me.

This is all supposing that it happens, which I suspect it won't. The money
man didn't get the money by being stupid, and sooner of later, he will
understand that he has been conned.

Of course, some people say they watch racing to see wrecks. Those people
will no doubt enjoy seeing the explosions that will happen during the pit
stop. Not if, but when; if they try to rush this type of refueling
activity. Once again, smarter heads will prevail, I suspect.

Who would be willing to sit in a plane of this type, while it is being
refueled? Not the pilots mentioned, with the possible exception of zoomie.
Who will be a pit crew member, once they realized what they are being asked
to do? I can't imagine who, can you?
