pchapman 279 #4 August 11, 2012 I don't want to take away from your post, but add something else that's on topic. Studies have been going on for a long time: Attached is a photo series of a cat being released in a jet trainer, during a zero G maneuver. Found this in a 1957 aerospace medicine journal. During studies of how the inner ear works, the USAF took cats up in two seat jets. They let the cats go in different positions while floating, to see how it affected the cats righting reflex. A bizzare combination -- kittehs and fighter jocks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davjohns 1 #9 August 13, 2012 I can only hope the cats in the fighters were de-clawed. That could go so very badly. We had a cat that we threw around like a football. We were very careful with him and he was very trusting. He enjoyed it. My grandfather insisted that all cats would land on their feet. We told him this one would not, because it trusted you to throw it correctly. He dropped it. It hit on it's back. Some people 'know' things that aren't so and you just can't tell them otherwise. Hmmmm.....I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
