How amusing to read these thoughts in a forum devoted to FLYING. God
forbid
people should devote themselves to any pursuit not strictly sanctioned by
nature, eh?

I hate to break it to some folks, but human endeavor in its ENTIRETY has
been about defying nature at every turn. It's the only reason we live the
way we do.

True to a point, however, using an 'exit' as an 'entrance' is not sinply
(note intentional mis-spelling) defying nature. It's defying God (pick
one!), nature, and the way of our ancestors. This country, and I'm sure
yours, didn't get where it is today by spinning around our fellow man and
giving him a good old rogering!

To which ancestors are you referring? The Greeks, perhaps?

And as to what "God" dictates, at least one fairly influential Holy Book
declares three-score-and-ten to be the "normal" human life span (that's "70"
to you). I fully intend to live beyond that landmark, and I don't give a
**** what God has to say about it. So there.
