  1. Better get rid of those energy saving light bulbs then. Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  2. I thought cows were carbon neutral ooohh well, I better eat more steak to save the planet. Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  3. Why not just look it up in dictionary? Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  4. Bill, I would certainly not want to try such an experiment. The results could be a disaster. If we are going to try and cool the planet, we need be very sure of what we are doing. I believe our top priority is to eliminate our dependence on fossil fuels. We seem to be making progress, but at a painfully slow rate. Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  5. The top ten drop zones are in Germany Try http://fallschirmsport-marl.de// or http://www.fscdaedalus.de/ or http://www.skydive-nuggets.de/ Ok it's only a top 3. but, vee haf vays of mayking yoo joomp. Who needs jets apart from D. B. Cooper Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  6. Hey Dave, thanks for explaining things. I am not a TM, only the vidiot, I just photograph whats there. On none of those jumps was there ever a problem. I just let the TM's do their job and as a vidiot make sure I do not get in the way. Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  7. Errrr, what do you mean? Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  8. Depends on the laser. My wife would have had to wait four weeks for one type of laser, only two weeks for the other. The other is only available in Germany and Switzerland. The better the laser, the less time you have to wait. Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  9. Here are a whole bunch of full frame images, no cropping or editing. http://3d4.de. Click on "FOTOS". I still think I could do better though. Tips and critic will be taken with interest. Edited to add: If you look at the first photo in the album, it looks like the leg of the pax has gone through the wing of the aircraft Honest, no editing! Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  10. If am crazy enough to hijack an airplane, I am sure I would be crazy enough to jump. I reckon he did a clear and pull at 10,000 ft. Then he spent the next few hours riding the storm up and down and landed hundreds of miles from where he jumped. Someone found the dead body with parachute and money. They buried the body, burnt the parachute and made of with the money for themselves. Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  11. Well, before that it was "The Dark Ages" and we all know, when it's dark, it get colder. Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  12. and the tandem in Namibia ? Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  13. It seems to me, that a poll that is entirely voluntary and where you do not know who is answering, is a waste of time. A bit like this poll really. But come on, asking questions about triangles and rocks from mainly skydivers only really tells you how crazy people are, who jump out of perfectly good airplanes. Polling people here about skydiving activities is also a bit lame, unless you know something about the experience of the people who answer. But what the hell, it's all fun and games here on SC. Oh and my answer would be "depends on whose poll it is". Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  14. From billvon: Quantify by how much we are are accelerating that change please. By this statement you are admitting that at least some of any warming we are seeing has nothing to do with human activities. We are only accelerating the change. Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  15. I guess it depends and what you define as a "pretty good handle". Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  16. No, I don't think so. We have a vague idea of what is happening and we keep getting new surprises as time goes on. I was only talking about the science, not the hype. You know, like things that can be measured. We can measure how much more radiation will be absorbed due a doubling of CO2 to 460 ppm. What we are still pretty crap at is deciding what that actually means in terms of climate. The only way the hype gets the disaster senario is with a myraid of feedbacks. The hype is costing people vast amounts of money that would be better used to find a clean and plentiful energy source to replace fossil fuels. Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  17. This does not mean an article in Nature is guaranteed to be right, as you have already said. So we are back to my gang is better than your gang. But take it with a pinch of salt (as I am sure you will do), after all this is only the net. Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  18. 1. No deaths 2. No serious accidents 3. No minor accidents 4. A plane 5. skydivers 6. good weather 7. someone that helps to run it apart from me. 8. new people that replace the retired. 9. people that stay 10. skydiving video porno's Select your order
  19. How the hell do you expect to find the new TM's to replace the ones that retire? This pisses me off, my DZ will try to get the new skydivers to progress to what ever level they want to. After we have trained them some fucking tandem factory takes them and I am still searching for TM's. What is going on here? And it's not the pay. We pay more than most. Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  20. This is why I have given up on debating AGW and the likes on the internet. I have even gone to the lengthts of not debating (discussing) things I do know something about on the net. What you are basically saying is that what you read on the net is not peer reviewed not published by people with knowledge and as such should be taken with a pinch of salt. Therefore, after what I have read on the net, I will start to teach the 45 degree rule for exit seperation. After all, what I have read on the net can only be produced from money grabbing dropzones. Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
  21. What!! Even fatter than the Germans But wait until the skydivers are willing to pay $20 for a gallon for rape seed Jet 1A. Then it will be just Fuck and Skydive. The eating will take second place. Dave Fallschirmsport Marl
