John Ousterhout - rah-14 Wow, John, it's been years since we've gotten a new inductee. I've been wondering who's been keeping Zoomer stable since Tim Kern left and got airbrushed. I guess it's just been a matter of time. If you think Tim was the one keeping Jim stable... man, all I can tell you is the depth of your ignorance is absolutely astounding. -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

![]() "Jethro" wrote in message ... "Juan Jimenez" wrote in message .. . Silenced? I believe you can rest assured such is not the case. Go look him up on Google. It's amazing how loud silence can actually be, if you're listening. ![]() Juan I have no doubt that he will never be silenced, nor his critics. The one blessing is that unlike the Wrights nobody will likely be arguing about ZZZ in a hundred years. Could be, but you can rest assured the chances of someone talking about you in a hundred years is but a very small fraction of that. ![]() It's not so much if a tree falls, it's more a case of if you rob a liquor store and nobody can place you at the scene, you didn't do it in the eyes of any judge. chuckle The last time I checked, Lakehurst NAS used to draw literally hundreds of thousands of people, particularly for their Blue Angels performances. You gotta work on your analogies, pal. I know a man who claims to have hit twenty hole-in-one shots, all without witnesses. I completely disregard his claim, as I do some others. I've hit a single hole-in-one and doubt I'll ever hit another, but my name is on the clubhouse wall and his isn't. I tried golf. Once, got a birthday gift, 10 hours of lessons. Was being taught how to hit the ball with the #1, at the driving range. I sucked, then got a bit better and whacked one hard, up and straight down the range. The ball happened to hit a bird, one of those long legged white ones that hang out at landfills and near shorelines. I'm probably the only person in Puerto Rico to have ever accomplished such a feat at a driving range. There must have been some 50 people there, all practicing, just a 30 second walk from the clubhouse. They were all astounded. No plaque on the wall, no record. The only one I care about who was there to remember was my son. Do you think I give a flying intercourse who else remembers, whether any photos were taken, who were the witnesses, etc.? ![]() -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

Especially his threats that everyone should "govern themselves accordingly," a line he stole from a Judge who stated that to him in a trial where he came an inch from being cited for Contempt. That trial transcript is also recorded on the internet. Sorry to correct you, Bear. Campbell was using that line for many years - probably decades - before that trial. Ron W knows which trial it was, I'm sure - I think it was a Federal Judge, in one of Campbell's various suits against Sun n Fun. Of course, that's what made it hillarious when the judge hit him with it. Did campbell comprehend it at the time as applying to him? Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired |

Why come to me when you can go to the source? ![]() He made no mention of any barograph or other recoding instrument to verify any accomplishment. http://www.aero-news.net/Community/D...1905&Refresh=1 The barograph is mentioned right there next to the altitude, Al. Didn't see it in the email. Are you sure you got that email from Jim? ![]() I can't tell you or I'd have to kill you. You have seen some of his email haven't you? Apparently I should be seeking legal council right now. Unhuh. Yeah, sure. I've got no big thing for zoom, generally he is harmless to the well informed. I have not said anywhere that his flight didn't occur. I have said that he is claiming a title he has not earned, and that I, as one who has earned the title, object. All I ask is that he remove reference to "World Record", and replace it with something more appropriate, say "Personal Best". I admit that sounds reasonable, if in fact the events are as you describe them. If an advisory board member of an aviation organization claimed to be a pilot and wasn't, would you correct him? In that we do agree. That too is easily verifiable, and there is but one recognized authority. You wouldn't accept someone's unofficial license, would you? Except for the fact that you can ask to be removed from public records that state you have a license. Go look up Jim in the FAA pilot database. He's not there, but he definitely has a pilot's license, I have seen it. Juan It was revoked for his having failed a medical by being mentally ill. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired |

I don't think you guys are being fair to him. He seems to be almost as mentally unstable as Jim Campbell. Has anyone seen this BD-5J of his actually flying? I don't think he's ever claimed that it's flown. Juan's is an unusual hobby, hooking up with frauds and defending them against all odds. I can't see that it's profitable, but if he enjoys it, I suppose that's all that matters. On the other hand, maybe he's got enough sense to not actually put his life on the line, when he's got young offspring to around. It's a heck of a decision to look your child in the face and tell him you might not come back from this flight, you might never see him again, because you want to go fly an impractical airplane for fun. He reproduced? Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired |

That trial transcript is also recorded on the internet. Actually Zoom has used the "Govern Yourself Accordingly" threat for years. I first saw it about 1995. Then in one of those GREAT KARMA moments (08-27-99) Zoom was told "Conduct yourself accordingly" in court by a Federal Judge. http://www.ousterhout.net/zoom/fed-snf.html I doubt that he appreciated the irony.

![]() "Juan Jimenez" wrote in message .. . Could be, but you can rest assured the chances of someone talking about you in a hundred years is but a very small fraction of that. ![]() I have never sought attention or the recognition of others, in fact I dislike it. So I am quite glad that nobody will be discussing me in any way next week let alone in years. It's not so much if a tree falls, it's more a case of if you rob a liquor store and nobody can place you at the scene, you didn't do it in the eyes of any judge. chuckle The last time I checked, Lakehurst NAS used to draw literally hundreds of thousands of people, particularly for their Blue Angels performances. You gotta work on your analogies, pal. All those people and nobody to document or witness? And yet the claimant doesn't appear to be the type to avoid the limelight. Curious. Is the analogy imperfect? Lets see: lack of witnesses, didn't happen, I hit all the main points. Oh well, analogies are seldom perfect. Sorry you didn't like golf, it's a social sport. Driving ranges are not much like golf, I know some fellows that are pure dynamite on a driving mat who play fairly poorly. I play mediocre golf, but my partners and I usually manage to have a pleasant day. Last word to you of course (like I could stop you!). |
