It's just there, alphabetized along with airshow mishaps and such,
analogous to having the zapruder film on a page full of presidential

parade
clips. I know it isn't your intention to cheapen 9/11, but as that page

is,
that's the impression I get - another "cool" aviation video.


Excellent point. It does appear insensitive, the way they are currently
listed.

I will somehow put them in their own category, so they're not shown as just
another "cool video"...


If you do create a separate category for 9/11, you might have links to
a couple of sites with appropriate tributes to the victims, both
safety personnel (FDNY, police, and so on) and civilians. Not long
after 9/11 I saw a very moving site that had all the victims' names,
many of their photos, all animated with Enya's "Only Time" piece. I
tried to find it last night but Google by now has too many. Another
great site was that place in Utah, Salt Lake City I think, that had
American flags for each victim. I'll try to search around a bit and
offer URLs so as to save you some time.

I have rearranged the page a bit, hopefully to address this issue. See the
new version at http://www.alexisparkinn.com/aviation_videos.htm .

Without commenting on the validity of the coward accusation, you should know
better than to assume these two posts are from the same poster based on
nothing more than IP addresses. Surely someone in your line of work is
familiar with the concept of routers and gateways.

. . . Whose IP address change rather infrequently. A couple of posts made
on the same day with the same IP address (notwithstanding the same general
content and writing style) can be a pretty good indicator the posts came
form the same person.

Likely, but not necessarily a safe assumption. That's all.

Hi Martin, with respect to your cartoon of February 22, 2004 with the
headline "Another game for the US government to restrict because 'it
has bombs and stuff in it.'", followed by a picture of the Minesweeper
game; actually I think we'd be a lot more concerned if the game had
pictures of right-hand brown breasts in it, don't you think?

Um, at the risk of starting yet another dispute, why is posting a link to a
page of aviation videos not appropriate in a piloting newsgroup?

They aren't for sale. They are there for everyone to view.
