  1. finally - so it's the professor's fault!!! perhaps the university fostered an atmosphere where the professors felt it appropriate to verbally abuse the students and the atmosphere was simply a response to society's mistreatment of youth in the early 1920's of course, the mistreatment of youth in the 1920's was a direct results of the lack of jobs in the buggy whip industry Ban Buggy Whips. We need to immediately pass a LAW to create stimulus in the 1920's for good jobs requiring low skilled labor. We can tax Andrew Carnegie or someone of his 'ilk'. ...

  2. What? don't you have your own instructors? You should get encouragement here, but other than that, you have live instructors that you are working directly with that, supposedly have your .

  3. I'm gratified that one or two companies hasn't already flooded this thread with posts of "company XXXX has great service" - times are tough, but the general tenor of the industry is nice about to hear without advertising ...

  5. You mean, you hold the individual responsible for his actions and expect the best out of 'everybody' (rather than just 'somebody else')? What about the 'environment'? what about society? what about some vague "program"? what about man's inhumanity to man?' what about the person's uncle? education system? and a whole host of other excuses......er...reasons? they are responsible for so much, clearly not individuals, just these undefined 'reasons' are. what kind of wacky talk are you throwing out there? the 'free individual' is anathema to the collective.!!!!!! Seriously, though, I only take exception to the statement "step back a few decades". I don't think today's people are any less capable of this practical stance than they ever were. It's just a matter of setting expectations, even today, even in the current, rather lazy, societal context of today. It would only take a few percent to tip the scales. ...

  14. Lots of video of pros out there, too. If you watch how they do it, you can learn a ton also.

  15. in the end - if you can't find the specific individuals responsible, you're just whistling in the wind. you can't put the "atmosphere" on trial. I don't care if the college had a written policy that required employees to cover up abuse. If someone still covered up abuse like this, I'd still find them to be criminally responsible for their individual actions. They can point at the 'policy' all they want. It's not an excuse. Especially when the subject matter is protecting the kids. The implication that bothers me is that the individuals responsible are not"REALLY" totally responsible for their own actions. I don't like that this implicitly gives them an "excuse". Just as well pass a law requiring rape victims to 'dress less provocatively'. a better atmosphere - that's fine - go for it, try to improve it. But it's not responsible for what people did. The people are. To me, it's a distraction where people continue to try to social engineer a situation rather than insist on personal responsibility and personal morality. (I appreciate the other viewpoint, I understand it, hopefully I've laid mine out clear enough too) ...

  16. in reality - this has nothing to do with evil gas and how it kills innocent honor students it's really just a back door into tracking how much gas we each use so they can control our movements and tax those that already buy more gas in the first place. ...

  17. this is really the only answer decision, whatever it is, is at your hard deck, based on a control check What you do before your hard deck (panic, take a wrap to balance the flight, cut the lines, try to clear the knot, eat a sammich, take more pictures with one of your 7 go-pros) is your business, but you have to decide before then whatever you do. ...

  21. knowing how skydivers and basejumpers use and cross use their gear - especially the expensive bits.....I'm a bit surprised that a wing suit is offered that would have no access in the design. A warning label on usage does not equal safety, only very thin legal coverage. Tell you what though. I'll leave that question to the wingsuiters and the builders. It's not my area. ...

  22. it's not society's responsibility to make the victims 'feel better'. It's society's responsibility to make sure the criminal doesn't repeat his criminal action. the defect, then, is with the victims' inability to find their own closure, not society doing it for them - mixing that up is why this topic is littered with emotional arguments rather than rational. yes their loss is understandable, sad, difficult - but moot to the topic as an aside, I don't agree that this society "holds up execution as the only truly just punishment" - we also have incarceration, and many other forms of punishment. ...
