Go **** yourself


I've reported this impersonater to hotmail, but who knows if they will
do anything about it.

Hopefully, anyone who has read my posts in the r.a.* newsgroups over the
years, knows that I don't use language like this.

You need to report him to Google as it looks like that is where he was
posting from.

I didn't know what to think:

....The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002) ?

Gollum: What?
Smeagol: LEAVE NOW AND NEVER COME BACK!
[Gollum screams in frustration]
Smeagol: LEAVE NOW AND NEVER COME BACK!
[Silence]
Smeagol: We told him to go away... and away he goes! Gone, gone, gone!
Smeagol is free!


....or "Timmy" on MST3K ?

There were excellent reasons for people calling Grumman "The Ironworks."

Grumman and Republic both built tough airplanes.

The wing clearly departed the airframe before the crash. I wonder if

these
old birds are simply fatigued?


I wonder about catastrophic unconfined engine failure, severing the spar.
There was an account of the sound and sight of an explosion before the wing
departed, wasn't there?

Snapping structures sound a lot like explosions -- especially to
nonexpert witnesses.
