But I think "contains" is much more appropriate than "holds". Example - In front of you are two empty sacks; one of 150 lbs capacity (assuming standard crap mass/weight/volume/specific gravity) and another of 100 lbs capacity. Which one "holds" more? Which one contains more? There's no correct answer - it's just my opinion and probably stinks. On this we vigorously agree: there's no correct answer. And I think, no, I'm *certain* that was the point that nafod40 was attempting to make. My only point of contention involved his particular sequence of numbers. Aviation reply - No wonder the N. Vietnamese hated the Bee 52!!! Would that be a weapon of Mass Corruption? Actually, Dad said they carried and dropped "concrete blivets" out in some bombing range out West. He also dropped real iron bombs over various parts of S.E. Asia, but I never heard him say anything about dropping blivets, concrete or otherwise, there. But you never know. There was some conversation about ferrying the wing commander's Volkswagon (IIRC) in the bomb bay once during an extended training deployment... Russell Kent |
