PK You already know the answer to that Some people just moved to a different forum for a unknown reason. As you is 41 R.i.P. -
The pictures of the total destruction are beyond words. Some interesting observations: The satelite was able to pick up the Tsunami pulling the tide out before the big wave came in. I will never do anything bad again because it's going to be on video. Some of the damaged area's along the coast and rivers: rice paddies ocean front property had been reclaimed from from mother nature over centuries. We have a history in the US of building in the flood plain and then watch it reclaimed by mother nature only to rebuild in the same place again. Sometimes we'll build levies to protect the development from a 101 yr flood only to see another 100 yr flood 5 yr's later. The human race will survive we'll all pitch in and help and help.

*** It's not all bad though. There are A LOT of people out there every day "Keeping an eye" on things. ICE and FBI are DAILY taking people down that I have every confidence are doing surveillance for terrorist attacks. You don't read about it in the news but it IS happening. The US is a far safer place than it was pre 9/11 but we still have a LONG way to go. So they really are watching me Damn R.I.P.

Beware Losing weight has it's downsize Uh I mean downside. If you all lose all them lbs your w/l will go down so you'll be buying new canopies/containers or jumping with weights For every pound you lose someone else will have to gain a lb Or the earth will spin out of orbit Seriously Someone on the news said that after a study of the weight loss programs/diets there was only one that worked. Weight watchers: people kept a minimum of 50% of their weight loss off aftr 2 yr's. Good luck in your goals R.I.P.

Hi AD Where's the love The dude is kind of funny in a redneck sort of way. He's got to be doing it on purpose and you took the bait from a tuna I prefer the handshake with the knuckles. then one fist on top of each other and then bumping hips, then the open hand slide with the index finger pointed at each other. R.I.P.

Will only be using around the hood but 2.5hr battery and 9 lbs seems like a lot. Would it be better to go with just a basic notebook and upgrade the desktop? R.I.P.

"Ghouls Rush In" : Tsunami Tourists Sunbathe On Beach
slug replied to Michele's topic in Speakers Corner
A reporter was quoteing a cab driver that had just dropped off a load of Russians for their "Holiday" in the sun. His statement was something like "the Russians are used to it".Very little fazes them. The other tourists that are going most everyone who was there that isn't helping has left. Why go there and expect to be pampered after all that pain and suffering Goofy R.i.P. R.I.P. -

Wondering what it takes to get a DC-3 started

Hi RB Lapes requires a flat area for the plane to make it's low approach and the pallets to skid to a stop. Tree stumps logs boulders etc, will send the pallets heads over heals. Container delivery system CDS) could be used without to much of a problem except the supply of chutes (one per container) would be a limiting factor. IMO Someone needs to be on the ground to ensure that the biggest survivor's don't get all the goods regarless the mode of delivery. C-130 's can land on a 2 lane road and offload in less than 5 minutes. first the people on the ground have to clear the road for approx 300 meter's. So first the choppers unload the organizerss and basic supplies(slings) get things organized , do some basic cleanup and then airland the materials or use the CDS system and recycle the chutes via chopper. BTW Indonesia has something like a doz C-130's but according to the news only 4 are airworthy due to shortage of parts. The US has the parts there may have ben a embargo in the past for human rights issues. I suspect/hope this parts shortage is resolved ASAP. R.I.P. Ex c-130 loadmaster
