  3. Okay, so it just grazed my face, and caught my ear on the way by. Scared the beejezzus out of me. It was a sigma tandem and I was closing the last flap when the closing loop let go. *PPOOMP* *ZING* Next time I'll try to use more finesse, less force.

  7. [troll mode on] Nothing stacks up against the 1911. [troll mode off] hehe... from the ad- "The world has seen a lot of changes since 1911. Apparently some designers believe that time has stood still. While classics certainly have their place, serious sidearms require the benefit of modern thinking, combining the best of the old with the best of the new" bolding is mine.

  16. falling gently through the atmosphere - no risk. There really wasn't a plausible way to keep the thing from breaking apart in any scheme that allowed the capsule to contact the earth - enter the parachute. One of the things we're really interested in is the isotope signature and soil will contaminate isotopic signatures in a heart beat (soil contamination in isotope studies have provide grist for more arguments and entertainment at meetings than you can imagine). So extreme measures were taken to prevent contact with the soil - again enter the parachute. Now if the damn thing would have just worked ---------------- Scars remind us that the past is real

  18. Exactly , what was wrong with round chutes, they have been used countless times before. They wanted it to have some forward speed to make it easier to snag with the helicopter. The sole purpose of that was to keep the material from coming in contact with the earth to prevent contamination and insure a pristine sample. That got busted all to hell - literally. Puts us in a pickle now - we were planning on using that capsule for another mission. Gotta do some rethinking now! Jump --------------- Scars remind us that the past is real

  23. It's a lonely labor day in the lab as I'm the only one here. I rushed this morning, forgot breakfast and forgot to pack lunch and don't have money for lunch. So I settled in for a long hungry day. I kept hearing this beeping down the hall and go to check it out. The snack machine has gone haywire and is dispensing 2 items every 15 seconds Got a whole bunch of stuff but the free ride is over - there's so much crap piled up at the bottom now you can't open the door!!! ----------------- Scars remind us that the past is real
