It must be so lonely in Paris. . . . And somehow his 'I have a life" simulator must have failed. too. Bertie, was 'nope' the best you could do? Do you expect a woman to do a man's work here? Of course he does. Why would things be any different here? Thenkew. Honestly. Bertie |

I suspect he'd bet somebody that he couldn't post a single thing here without a long thread starting with dozens of people jumping on him to tell him how he's wrong. -- Paul Tomblin http://blog.xcski.com/ Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school. -- A.

Why airplanes fly
Jacques: Hi Tony. What's new with you?
Tony: I've made myself the center of attention on an online discussion group. I can post the most obvious, innocuous statement and it will draw dozens of responses. Jacques: That seems unlikely. People are much smarter than that. What is the nature of this discussion group? Tony: It's a discussion group for pilots. I think they are full of themselves. I could post something like "aircraft fly because their wings generate lift" and I am certain that because I was the one who posted it that it would create at least 30 responses. Jacques: Pilots have to be pretty smart to get where they are. I can't see how that would generate any responses. Okay, I could see maybe two or three but dozens seems entirely out of the question. You aren't that important. Pilots are trained to exercise good judgement. Tony: Ha! I'm willing to bet you 20 euro that if I post the sentence "Fixed-wing aircraft fly because their wings generate lift as they move forward through the air," I will get at least 30 responses. Jacques: Nonsense! That would not be worthy of response. Tell you what - if you get more than 5 responses, I'll pay out 1 euro for every response over that count - but not over 25 euros. If you get 5 or less responses, you owe me 25 euros. And no cheating! That seem fair? Tony: You're on! |
