  1. It might just be because of the flash, digital pic quality, etc, but those grommets look like brass to me. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am
  2. urethane can be injected (then it 'hardens') into tires used for forklifts and such in severe tire puncture environments. The urethane can get quite hot depending on how much deflection the tire expreiences and how fast it rotates. It will also not have quite the same feel as with air.

  3. He jumped in Seattle - Kapowsin until about '94, used to work for Boeing. He is about 5 feet tall, brown hair. I sure would like to be able to contact him. I apologize if this is not appropriate for this forum. Thanks, Cliff People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

  4. I think TVBP has it right, in that for CRW it could have advantages in a wrap. If you have shit around you and can't get out of it, I might want to be able to throw the reserve PC in a particular direction. Each scenario is different, and it might be a lot easier to do it in theory than in practice.

  7. Definitely no. I know of one multi world champ that always flat packs (I call it stack packing, similar to how some riggers will pack reserves) his stilleto (when he packs). Flat packing can still have the nose pointed forward, flat packing doesn't mean the whole canopy has to be rolled toward the center as some did a long time ago.

  9. I don't know how typical it is, but for at least some cars, the automatic version will be geared for lower engine rpm in high gear/lockup activated (highway cruising) compared to the manual transmission version. So gas mileage may not be better. I just remember reading the final drive ratios for each gear - std vs manual, I think for my old Civic.

  10. Stern can be funny at times, especially when interviewing guests. I did enjoy a lot of the skits on his really old TV show, not the current one which is just his radio show. but I think he talks way too much about himself, and his life isn't that interesting.

  11. Why give a thief any chance to get away? Why not say that you're very interested, please come into my office?

  12. As I said earlier, I think not. At least not the main point. Punishment fitting the crime I think is the main point, at least for those that advocate it. If the execution were carried out very quickly, then it would certainly be more of a deterent. Of course that would mean more innocent people would get executed.

  13. Quite right. I just checked, and everything that I've ever bought used was not stolen.
  14. Actually, there were many people that lied. SH's own subordinates lied to him. They were ordered to proceed with making weapons and were afraid to tell him of their failure/incompetence. At least one notable source of intelligence from Iraq lied to us. He was supposed to have been a reliable inside source, but was later shown to have used us to push for overthrow. I contend that it was very reasonable for everyone to make the firm conclusions that were made at the time. At the time, it would have been wrong to not be confident. If the assertions of fact were made without showing the evidence to the opposition political parties and the world (faulty as it was), that would be different. But everyone was able to look at the same info, and came to the same firm conclusion, even those countries in bed with SH on the oil-for-food scam were convinced. From now on, I would hope we would be a bit more skeptical. Our intelligence agencies are used to deception campaigns orchestrated against us, I think maybe they were not prepared for an internal deception campaign within Iraq. As you so humbly said, can you see the difference? People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

  15. I can see the difference, but I think your analogy is poor. I don't think analogies will enhance understanding here. So everyone was more sure of themselves than they had a right to be. That just makes them misled and too confident in their assertions. Even those that would never support any war with anyone under any circumstance agreed with the conclusions - they had no motivation to justify any desire to justify war, but still came to the same conclusion. If you want to continue calling that a lie, well I just don't know. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

  16. I have to admit I did not check the stolen gear list when purchasing used gear. I don't think many do. I think those cases where thieves are caught should get much more publicity within our own community, so that thieves that are jumpers are deterred, at least more than they are now. Many DZs have gear lockers. Usually they are quite popular. I don't like the idea of not having my gear with me. I also don't like my gear being subject to theft at the DZ. Such lockers are not really very secure. There have also been some fires recently, at least I know I have insurance for it at home. The issue of the temperature and humidity environment is also valid, my closet is certainly more friendly than many of the locker locations I've seen.

  17. Quite right. However many such people that can effectively run their criminal organizations, including ordering executions, are in jail for crimes that are not capital offenses. I think such criminals should be held with no outside contact allowed. All contact with prison officials and guards should be monitored and recorded so that guards could not be the conduit for outside contact. This would be expensive, but justified I think. It probably would be found to be unconstitutional. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

  18. So is it right that he was convicted and sentenced for new crimes? That is a bit different than you implied. He probably isn't getting much attention because he is a white mobster, is that correct? Plus he may not have done anything to redeem himself while in prison. In theory, I support the death penalty. However, in the real world of today, I think it is not worth the effort/resources it takes, it is too much of a distraction from more important things. I certainly wouldn't support if for those that want to stop their appeals - to just get it over with. Those should definitely be left to stay in jail till they die. Many people are against the death penalty because it supposedly not a useful deterrent. Even if you don't argue that point, I think the deterrence value should not be very important for those that do support it - punishment fitting the crime should be more important. But again, I think it is worse to be in jail until you die, and it is just not worth the fight over it nowadays.

  19. The Justice Dept has been pretty busy for the past 5 years with other things. I don't think that a confrontational style is needed. Maybe it is, but you imply that it is obviously required. Clearly the mine in question seems to recently had a lot of problems, but I wonder if that is generally true.

  20. He should have remembered his own words, but they were from a year before. You seem to assert it is impossible to be mistaken about such a thing. Again, you want to change the definition of a lie. After having the opportunity to confirm his own words, did he continue to deny making the statement? Maybe he did, and it would then certainly be a lie. Maybe that is the best example of a lie that you can find. Philosophy without action is useless. Clinton set the policy to overthrow SH that I happen to agree with. Bush had the courage for the action, that I also agree with. SH was directly supporting terrorism. Although his administration was littered with scandals and I think was generally a disgrace, I give Clinton credit for some important things that were not popular within his party, such as supporting welfare reform and NAFTA. It seems that there is nothing that Bush does that can be supported by liberals.

  21. Pro wrestling is so much like a soap opera, and soap operas suck. I'm not deying the athleticism or the fact that you can get hurt. Is it standard in such interviews to pretend it is real? I ask because you mentioned that one person misunderstood your intentions when you offered to pick him up. This seems like admitting that the action is planned in advance.

  22. A bicycle chain/cable type lock works pretty good. If you're really nervous, you could use one of the kryptonite type locks.

  23. That is so weak. It wasn't a lie for any of the many world leaders that said the same thing. Some of them were communist, some were socialist, some were democrats... Were any of the world's political leaders not convinced he had WMD? Clinton set an official policy to pursue his overthrow. I think that was a good decision. He didn't effectively do anything about it though. If you think Bush was wrong to implement the policy, then you should also be against Clinton for declaring it. I understand it is very frustrating for liberals to be out of power in the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of our gov't. It wasn't easy for conservatives either.

  24. I wanted more of his opinions because he is in the industry, and because so many others don't seem to be open minded to the need for improvements.

  25. Please continue to give us your informed opinion as more detail becomes available. I am surprised that so many others are so willing to accept that the WV rescuer capability was OK.
