Thank you. With your permission, I will use this whenever I can. It's the best description I've ever heard. As a non-jumper, I suspected it was probably not as suicidal as it seems.

I'm looking at some used canopies to buy, and I've got some questions for you experienced people so I can make a good decision. 1) When did they start manufacturing the Safire2? 2) What is the actual size of a Safire1 149 made in August 2000? I know that there's been some differences in measuring methods between PD and Icarus at some point, and I want to make sure that I'm not getting a pocket rocket. All I've been able to find is a statement by phreezone that a Safire is 7% smaller than advertised if made before a certain date, but he didn't say what that date is. 3) What exactly is a Jedei? I've never seen anyone fly one. All I think I know is that it's an airlocked Stiletto. Could someone clarify? 4) How does the recovery arc of a Stiletto compare to that of a Safire1 and a Jedei? What about glide? Performance in breaks? Rear/front riser pressure? That's a lot of questions, but the internet is probably the only place where one can find people who have this information and are all in one place.

It's no Georgia, that's for sure Lots of people complain about the cold. It's really not that bad if you come prepared.

Oh yeah, it's ice alright I am, after all, in Canada, eh? I've never had a problem landing on it. It's slippery, so watch your step, but it's always slippery. Not really any worse than usual.

I haven't been here that long, since August '02 I believe. I used to post silly replies and somewhat personal stuff, especially since I lurked for a while and felt like I really knew some of you folks. Then I had a tough semester at school, come back here and there's so many new faces. Now I post my opinions in the serious threads, but I rarely say anything in the flirting threads.

Ok, so lets argue over the responsibility of the government, and not over the chemical composition and biological side effects of Ephedrine and it's derivatives. I agree with kallend to a point. I think that the government should not be able to ban substances outright, but it should be able to force people to consult a doctor before taking certain things. This is the business of the federal government because, at the least, it will prevent severe consumer fraud with miracle drugs. -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy.

I do not know enough about the channels for the distribution of medical information to be able to check, but I assume that the evidence you speak of is in the public domain. Again, I do not have enough knowledge to decide, even if I see that evidence, whether the evidence is satisfactory. One drug study looks a lot like another drug study to me. I have a great deal of opinions on the level of responsibility the government must assume. Also, if we were to discuss the method of presentation of this evidence to doctors, I could chime in. I agree with you that the government needs to provide this evidence to the public, and it probably has, I don't know. I'm neither defending nor attacking the decision of the government. I'm just pointing out that arguing over a medical subject on a skydiving forum is kind of pointless. -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy.

Correct, but almost no evidence has been presented that this is a bad decision. All evidence was anecdotal. And I still contend that no discussion over the general level of responsibility that the government must assume has taken place. This thread would greatly benefit from the opinions of qualified people about such studies. Correction: there was one link here to an FDA page that explains the decision they made in layman terms.
