UPI, Normally disingenuous but otherwise unreliable sources report that a glider pilot has been eaten alive by an army of army ants while flying in wave at Minden. The FAA has issued emergency AD-101003-ANT-1 grounding all gliders until spring (PW5s were excluded for cosmetic reasons as they were deemed unlikely to attract ants). .. -- bumper - ZZ "Dare to be different . . . circle in sink." to reply, the last half is right to left --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Getting off the topic a lttle bit, there was a grade B Sci-Fi movie in the
early 70's called "Phase Four" or "Phase IV" about an ant colony that developed heightened intelligence and was adapting rapidly to poisons used to eradicate it. Each poison in turn was a different color and resulted in ants breeding to match that color, the movie ended with the hero scientist being eaten by the ants he was trying to destroy. The feeling of paranoia pervades the entire movie, definitely worth a rental. - Mark Navarre ASW-20 OD California, USA - |
