This would appear to read like a reply from me dealing in a much more positive manner with the trimming of posts than you have deliberately attempted to convey here :-) I say again respectfully to you. Engage me and others on flying issues. On Usenet, this is the ONLY way people who are what you have said thay are can be properly exposed. C'mon Max; let's talk flying!!!!!!!!!!! :-)) -- Dudley Henriques |

Grasshopper blood is copper based. As are Vulcans. Grasshoppers are much easier to get a sample from. Mr. Spock keeps ducking out whenever there's a needle around. Spock never ducks out. Scotty beams him out. |

wrote: But really, does anyone have a theory why that is? Yes. Again: they don't have a clue! I swim in a salt-water bay that's popular with the geese both fall and spring (and summer--they never seem to stop migrating!). I have become very disillusioned with the instincts of the honkers. They just tack onto any guy that's flying, it doesn't matter in which direction. As for the length of the line, it's certain to vary, since stragglers are picked up at random.

I was out sick that day, or something, so I don't know what the trigger was for your attacks on Dudley. Could you fill me in? No specific trigger Jim, just a lot of accumulated nonsense. He is totally full of himself. Regardless of what he says, he is not here to promote friendly discussion of aviation, he is here to promote himself. Fancies himself as some kind of (self proclaimed) aviation legend. Often promotes thread drift in a direction that allows him to toot his own horn. Etc, etc. Maintained a Wiki listing of himself until posters here shamed him out of it. Thinks the value of any opinion is equal to it's printed weight in pounds. Should have been a science fiction writer. Loves fiction. Fancies himself a world class instructor, but has more trouble expressing himself in simple terms than Jessie Jackson. His dissertations could easily put a hummingbird to sleep. Has a nasty temper and becomes very arrogant if you disagree with him. Posts AND PROMOTES a lot of off topic cutesy banter. Thinks the world gives a **** about his personal life I guess. Loves to tout his money. Used to sock puppet a lot for Bertie. I have seen a lot evidence that suggest he actually IS Bertie. I could go on, but I'm sure you get the idea. Obviously just MY opinion, but that was the question. |
