I have beer on a Sam Adams kick lately. Beer through a bunch of there recipes and I have to say the Cherry Wheat has my vote for now. Octoberfest will be coming back soon so when it does that will have my vote for #1. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

Beat me to it. Look at the housing market out in Denver and look how bad it is getting out there. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

Would love to bike to work. Just to far away. Same goes for a lot of people. You cannot bike 50 miles a day up the Jersey turnpike. Sounds great. What am I supposed to eat the other 9 months of the year when nothing is growing in snow. Florida has a growing season where very little is coming out also. In the middle of summer you will find very little produce coming out of Florida, California, Arizona. Did you know when I used to drive truck I hauled oranges out of California to Florida, they unloaded it, resorted them, put a Fl stamp on them and sent them right back to CA. Just because it says something dont always believe it. The enviromentalist bitch about that to! No matter what you come up with they bitch. I remember reading about a wind farm that the Enviro's nitched about because they said birds were going to fly into the blades. Sounds good. Once again how can you switch to something that isnt widely available or available at all? I think Boeing is providing the incentive with the fuel savings that they say we will be getting. Airlines have told Boeing what they wanted and they are delivering on that request. Word in the industry is they are in the early phase of design for a 737 replacement. We have to get more efficient or go out of business. Same with rail and trucks. Once again they are trying to put a wind farm out over Long Island but some enviro's are bitching about it. There a lot of people who wont be happy until we all live in a damn cave. The problem is those are the one's who bring a lot of these projects to a screaching hault with a lawyer and a letter.

I dont remember that! I think you need to go through the ceremony again just to prove it. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

All these numbers, stats and scientists give me a headache. Heres what I want to know. WHAT DO YOU THINK I CAN DO TO CHANGE IT????? Besides what I have already done by trying to cut down on my consumption of energy. I would love to but a car that get 100mpg but I cannot but something that doesnt exist. I hear all these people yelling about global warming, then you no answer on how to change it beside "Cut down on your use of fossil fuel". If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

I'll volunteer. What do you need? If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

I had an idea before but until I seen it up front it was the proof in my own eyes. It's a real shame because I really like some of those guys music. I just wish they would shut the hell up and play and stop saying stupid shit. I was hoping they would at least lead by example. Thats something I always tried to do when I was in a leadership position. Dont ask someone to do that you yourself are not willing to do. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

I was out cutting wood today, does that count. I was in touch with nature! With a 10lb axe. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

Dont know, I wasnt there. Some of the bands I like and put on good shows. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

I dont! It was Uncle Jimbo with his homemade bazooka! If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

Can you run air conditioning off your solar panel? Or does it not push enough juice. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

I see big wigs come through there all the time. The hangar I work at is right next to the corporate FBO. Most of the time I could care less who come through. I just love to see what they are flying on. But when I seen who was on these planes knowing what they had just performed for, well it did not sit to well for me. Bon Jovi probably just burned more fuel in 1 flight than I burn in 5 years driving. But they want me to adjust my driving habits to cut down on polution.

A lot of that sounds really cool. I am all for using less and doing something like that. The thing is I am just a normanl middle class guy, and dropping $20,000 to $40,000 on solar panels just so I can save $100 a month doesnt seem like a good investment. Now if I had thatkind of cash in my hand I think it would be a great idea. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

The 2.5 Tulipo one looke like the one that guy had. Not to big but can that run your house? Is that price in euro? If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

I tip my hat to him also. I just wish it was more practical for someone like me to do what he does. I just cannot throw $40,000 at a set of solar panels. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

I'm in the wrong business. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

I'm sure he has some info on it. I am in no position to buy this stuf now anyway. The problem I see with solar panels is the cost. I wonder if the windmill is any cheaper. The guy on TV said he has no problem powering his home with it. I just wonder what kind of rig he has to do this with. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

I just saw a news report about a man in New Jersey who had a small wind generator next to his house. The city has pulled his permit to operate it because his neighbors are bitching about it. That can be for another thread though. My question is which one would be more beneficial for a family home? Price? Amount of power produced? Can the energy be stored for the days there isnt much wind? I never even thought about putting up a small wind generator outside my home. I cannot put one up where my condo is but when I finally buy a house that is something that I would consider if the price was right. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

It's a joke. All the guys at work were just shaking there heads with disbelief when I ran inside and told them what I was seeing outside. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

OK, so the Live Earth concert was yesterday and most people know the details of it. Something that I saw last night when I was at work at the airport has put a bug up my ass big time. We all know what the goal of the concert was, use less energy, fossil fuels and what not. So when I was at work I was outside the hangar and I saw Bon Jovi and the band pull up in a HUGE tour bus with 3 Chevy Tahoes with security guys. They got out of there tour bus and jumped on an BBJ. About 45 minutes later Dave Mathews arrives and jumps on a G-4. Then Kanye West got a Challenger. Then poor Kelly Clarkson, she only got to fly on a Citation II. I just thought to myself what a bunch of assholes to be preaching how we need to cut out energy consumption then after they put on a huge concert jump on there private jets and take off. I'm sure they bought there carbon offsets and put some more money into Al Gores pocket so they feel better about themselves. I guess you dont always have to practice what you preach.

***From the site, Boeing claims that engines return to idle if control input is lost. So this disproves that theory. You should read the sites report on the zoom stall theory. Id like to see what your opinion is of that. Im not a conspiracy buff but its quite interesting after you read his results. *** Not on a mechanical control engine like that one had. If it had a FADEC system then yes your statement would be correct. I had a runaway engine on a mechanical control engine once. When I was staring the engine it lit off and went to full throttle without any input from me. I had zero control of that engine. Never heard of anything like that happenening with a FEDEC unit though. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

I hate the Yankees! But I got to meet Jeter the other night. We fly charter for the Yankees and that was the plane I was assigned to that night. He seems like a pretty cool guy. I'm still a White Sox fan though. Come up and visit Hollywood! I got an extra bed here for you and the wife. I need some good humor up here. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

Thats faster than my little Ranger. I wonder what the fpm goes to at 100? If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

Sweet! LOL I wonder what the cop said after the kid told him his dal was Alo Gore. I also had no idea the Prius could do 100mph. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

I go into work tonight. I cannot remember the last time I had the 4th off. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
