Is there a problem with rah?
For the past several days I have only been averaging about 1 to 5
messages per day. That's way down from normal! I mean, there are usually that many from Juan alone...anybody else seeing this problem? Scott |

Usually after a particularly nasty flamefest between a few members, many people are unwilling to continue reading, so they don't read and don't post. Give it a couple weeks. Flamefests, as "righteous" as they may be, damage the group. Just my opinion. -- Jim in NC |

Consider how many times a person asks a question because they are
stuck or can't find the answer on an older newsgroup page. Now consider how many completly stupid answers he gets from the morons that don't really know what their talking about. After a while of hearing complete stupidity instead of helpful answers it's now wonder the post have slowed down. I can't tell you how many times I've posted because I want to try something different, and the number one answer for the self appointed experts is "follow the plans". Some answer for an experimental group. Lou |

Some answer for an experimental group. Really? Post them again, and see what you get, now. I can't remember what you have asked. So sorry if they tell people not to make substitutions in structure that will be holding their LIVES in their hands, like substituting aluminum for steel wing hold downs. Next time you have a question like that, remind us, and we will tell you, "no problem, go ahead and change the plans." Seriously, if you have to ask about changing plans, and you are willing to take a bunch of stranger's advise on making a change, then you have no business making such a change, or probably even building an airplane. Other questions posed here usually get a fair chance, when it is not talking about major structural changes. I think you are giving the group a bum wrap, on that one. -- Jim in NC Anyway, how many experts are left reading and posting, after exchanges that keep going and going, with buttheads like Juan.... My advise to everyone, is to know when to stop beating your head against the wall, and let idiots have the last word, sometimes. |

Some answer for an experimental group. Lou Lou, There will always be those who will not deviate from the plans for any reason. They apparently feel that the designer took everything into consideration and to change anything invites disaster. Even some manufacturers will discourage any change to the plans or kit. Too bad, that is what I always thought experimental building was all about. My advice, filter out the nay-sayers and keep going. Its a learning process and the best way to learn is to experiment. You may find it difficult though to get answers from those who only follow the exact plans. Keep posting your questions and usually you can find some good advice among all the flack. |

I think the "old timers" are just stopping to get their collective breath. It's probably also weather related although this is the kind of weather that puts me on the computer, rather than in the shop. : : I cant believe that everything is already known about aviation. : where would that leave the experts :-) : Stealth pilot Building....and trying to stay warm... It's just kinda chilly up here in Midland. The outside thermometer at the shop says +5, but it's in the sun. :-)) At least it's nice and toasty in the shop. It must be psychological. Last night when the outside temp was showing -6 I bumped the shop up to 72 from 70 and still felt cold. The temperature in the shop is very consistent throughout the whole building. Dan D.
