hooked 0 #1 September 30, 2002 Just saw on the news of a report of a skydive plane in Oregon, that failed and the jumpers had to bail out and one of them got tangled. Does anyone have any other info? I will go look for more information in the meantime. J -------------------------------------- Sometimes we're just being Humans.....But we're always Human Beings.
