No more "Left Downwind"?

They very often lose sight of the forest for the trees. They? Last I knew you were an instrument rated pilot, too. What's the reason for the disassociation? Is a _single word_ truly worth the bandwidth and time that will be used to debate whether it's proper to use it? For the most part Usenet bandwidth is cheap and time is what we make of it. I didn't get the impression from Jay's post that he was looking to start a debate. Nor do I expect to read one post in disagreement with Jay's point. Instead, it seemed to me that Jay was simply sharing his incredulity. I found the item newsworthy and, if nothing else, now won't be caught off guard if I hear this mentioned at an FAA safety seminar. -- Peter

The mere fact that I've now contributed 3 posts to this silly thread proves my point. Is a _single word_ truly worth the bandwidth and time that will be used to debate whether it's proper to use it? For the most part Usenet bandwidth is cheap and time is what we make of it. I didn't get the impression from Jay's post that he was looking to start a debate. Nor do I expect to read one post in disagreement with Jay's point. Jay asked us what we thought. Reason enough as any to start a debate here, as Jay well knows, especially if it's about something trivial. The smaller the nit, the longer the thread. Jeff's Law. Instead, it seemed to me that Jay was simply sharing his incredulity.
