Hello David This is a "voice" from the other side of the Atlantic O. You are 100% right about the copywright issue, period and Your pictures from O. and the way You present them and other pictures, are in my eyes, very good. Please go on and do not care about what the idiot (under(fr8)dog pacplyer has to "say"). A nice day to You sir says Owe Thanks for the kind words, Owe. One of your countrymen, from Orebro, was quite helpful in vetting out occasional errors in the scrapbook. It's always nice to hear from across the pond. I hope you have a nice day as well.

It was presented as if he wrote it. The first-person preamble made it seem especially so. Several respondents assumed he was the author. I merely set the record straight. Your objection has no merit. snip Will pacman ever have the guts to use his real name? Will "nafod"? I doubt it. David, somewhere on your resume must be the words "Morale Supression Officer". I've watched that Evil Overlord thing bounce around for a number of years now, and just didn't really consider all of the legal consequences or consult with my constitutional lawyers, etc., prior to being the one-hundred-millionth person to forward it on, albeit via a newsgroup rather than an email chain letter, which is how I normally receive it on a monthly basis. I should have gave attribution. As for anonymity, it's not about guts. I just got tired of receiving SWEN (news spelled backwards) viruses, viagra ads, cable box ads, and "Hi I'm Suzy, have you seen me lately"'s in my inbox, and having my real google-able name get sucked into child-like ****ing matches on an extremely public forum. But a quick bit of past post googling will reveal my true identity. Hint: I'm not The Dark Overlord. |

I should have gave attribution. Indeed you should have. For the record, my original post is copied below, verbatim, in all its alleged "morale suppressing" and "fun busting" glory. David "party pooper" O -- http://www.AirplaneZone.com --------------------------- Original post: Yeah, hard work indeed. As hard as copy/paste. "Nofod" authored neither the list nor the preamble that he posted. Presenting the preamble (written in first person) and the list as he did gives the false impression that he is the author -- just another of my pet peeves regarding usenet posts. The copyrighted "Overlord" list ends at 100 but various amended lists, some with as many as 200 entries, are floating around the net. "Nofod" is perhaps responsible for the last (and somewhat banal) entry in "his" list. http://www.eviloverlord.com/lists/overlord.html David "truth in advertising" O -- http://www.AirplaneZone.com |

wrote in message ... And the guy that built FMX4 is a senior scientist with a company you might know from El Segundo, that does some pretty good stealth too. Like Have Blue, Have Blue was a 1970's Lockheed airplane, not Northrop's. Before my time anyway. F-23 (that had a lower RCS than F22) An interesting claim. If you really knew anything about it, you'd know to keep your mouth shut. Ergo..... Besides, aircraft are designed to requirements. The F-22 met the requirements, so.....what's your point? How'd that tier3- project of yours turn out? Wasn't mine. Actually, that was a Boeing airframe design. I watched that crash. I was employed at NASA Dryden at that time. Of course the FMX isn't a stealth vehicle, it wasn't designed to be one. It's Yeah, I got that, too. So, beyond that last comment, what was your point? |

I thought that the Boeing X-32 was the ugliest. Oh, but wait: The X-32 had
sort of a happy face on it (big smiling inlet), so I guess I have to give it a couple points for personality. "I'm a big fat happy airplane!" "JAFO" wrote in message ... He probably means Tacit Blue, the ugliest airplane to ever fly. |
