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.

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 like that. I don't suppose it's copyrighted? g

Could you have cashed my check if I made it out to NAFOD?
I see a Skybolt in my future :-)

If simply pointing out the truth spoils anyone's "morale" or "fun",
then so be it. The fact remains that several people thought you wrote
the list. I gave you a few days to set the record straight. When you
didn't, I did. Simple as that.

Indeed you should have. For the record, my original post is copied
below, verbatim, in all its alleged "morale suppressing" and "fun
busting" glory.

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.

Reminds me of the joke about the cheapskate who changed his name to
"AGD-7077" so he could have personalized license plates.

For that much money, I'd have changed my name (again).

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?

He probably means Tacit Blue, the ugliest airplane to ever fly.

Aiiiyeee! An early attempt at 'visual stealth.' So ugly
you had to turn your head.

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!"
