Probably the best single argument as to why the US is not the best country in the world. WTF is it with Norway: EV sales 91.5% market share .But the US does have permitless carry!

He posted it as a joke, then said "climate change is good because it forced these sex workers to change careers, because sex is bad". But he wasn't committed enough to his anti-sex position so he had to slither around, drop some implied accusations with a broad brush, then deny he did that, then try to get some "gotchas" instead of actually arguing for his position. Which he'll continue to do, because that's easier than actually facing the gaping inconsistencies at the heart of his religion.

Careful, Joe. That's a trigger for those with an Army background.

Unusual sight to see South Africa playing Sri Lanka on Long Island, NY! 5 months ago there was nothing - now there is the lovely (temporary) Nassau stadium, complete with drop-in pitch. Hopefully the USA is inspired to become a bigger competitor in cricket.

Cossey never supplied the serial numbers. FBI asked him multiple times and he never did. We have an image of the packing card from the “museum chute” i.e. the backpack that he didn’t take. We also have the packing card from the backpack that he took, the “Cooper chute”. That packing card was found on the aircraft. I’ve pasted the info from the Cooper chute onto the photo of the museum chute’s packing card.

Only the right state’s rights though, obviously.

Not after the SC gets done with them they won’t.

So the state of Washington has a law prohibiting felons running for office. Why don't all states have such a law? Plot twist: WA has a law against felons running for office

You expected something else?

But nah, brah.

It's not the setup, it's the mistakes. Set up properly, two connections overcomes a low-likelihood problem that is prevented with proper rigging. But it introduces other error scenarios, some of them real-time during a malfunction because of flailing. Personally I want safety backups as simple as possible. I'm more OK with me failing than with my safety equipment failing Wendy P.

The harness, container, and canopy would each have a label with the model and serial numbers. Those numbers should also be recorded in the rigger's rigging log book and on the packing card. Whether they all actually are on the card would depend on the thoroughness of the rigger. The canopy info should certainly be. I'm not an expert on the 302's or the specific information flow in this case. But the following is what I seem to remember from reading it here. The 'lost in the mail' info you refer to refers to Cossey's log book info. Supposedly Cossey claimed to have provided copies of it, but the FBI doesn't seem to have it. The cards were both on the plane. I don't remember if the full info on the harness/containers were on them, but the canopy info, including serial numbers, were. I think the NB6 container has been debunked. That would have been Cossey's personal rig that he originally had claimed to provide, but he may not have. I think the two back chutes actually provided to Cooper were determined to be Norm Hayden's bailout rigs, which were older containers that had had newer harnesses installed. You should be able to find all this info in Flyjack's posts in this very thread.

All you're doing here - for the past several posts already - is saying "that's not what I was saying". Then you're just trying to get "gotchas" - but you never really clarify what you mean. This is really just trolling. Either you're just too cowardly to actually say what you stand for and argue for it, or you don't really stand for anything.
