    The Safire2 seems to have slightly better openings than the Sabre2. I know quite a few big boys jumping Safire2s that are perfectly happy with their choice in canopy.

    Remember that the APF can veto team names if they're not media-friendly! Good luck getting "Menage a Trois" past Fiona .

    Henny Wiggers jumps an A1U because of the downconverter that allows you to share footage with other DV cams. PM him for more detail.

    She did that last Friday and got five reponses within the hour

    0:4:0 Three 4-way jumps with low-timers, and one starcrest. Fun day. Woke up on Sunday with a muscle in my lower back in spasm, so spent a grumpy day on the ground.

    That will be interesting....... Does that mean they should have no problems being able to get in any slot? Bangkok obviously had an influence...

    Nice. The current ASM cover, from the recent Aussie Nationals.

    Nope. You don't know anything. Everything you experience is mediated through your senses, and since they can be fooled, you don't know anything with absolute certainty. JohnMitchell's answer also makes lots of sense. edit: Bugger. Lindercles uses bigger words than I do .

    Hey, you need someone to wash your car and deliver your pizza.

    You're missing the real solution. You need to get rid of Walt. Like vampires, once you kill the leader, all the others go back to being normal humans.

    Out of curiosity, do you know where the initial capital for the airstrip, plane, rigs, etc came from?
  14. bob.dino
    4-way, perhaps? Maybe, it means that all four of us have to jump the fence together. Edited: Wait, that's actually five people, so one is the camera person and can switch out as needed! I'll fly camera for slot.

    I'm moving into a house that doesn't have a TV

    Fair enough. It's a tactic that rarely moves the discussion forward. How about the questions Mike Owens posed three days ago that no-one has answered? I believe that the reason this thread has degenerated to "prejudicial cheap shots" is the absence of hard data provided by JumpShack in response to the questions raised in this thread. /just my opinion as a dis-interested observer.

    Live with your parents, have a decent job, live on noodles, don't go out. Exercise for the interested: spend a month chronicling your expenses. Every one. You'd be amazed at how much money is spent on beer, coffee, and expensive sandwiches. At $30k for a car? Why? You can live life surprisingly cheaply if you try .

    True, but Two Galahs is probably the second-biggest... with three Caravans around. That said, you only have to look at the buildings to see where Macca has put the money to work! How's the healing going?

    Picton is 29/32/37 for 100/10/1, which is significantly cheaper than Toogoolawah at about 39. All AUD.

    It's a long way to send beer and it'll probably be warm by the time it arrives, but I can likely help. PM me if you've not already found a solution.

    According to Crucial's memory selector, it's non-ECC.
  22. bob.dino
    Or you could go to Crucial, the retail division of Micron, a large and reputable manufacturer of RAM. Either way, you should be good to go.

    View | Headers And Footers gives you access to the header & footer for each page of the doc. In the toolbar that shows up, click on the button that switches to the footer (hover the mouse pointer over each button to see the tooltip that tells you what button you want). In the footer, type your text Or, click on Insert | Picture | From File to add your banner picture CTRL + E will then center the picture The location of some items may vary slightly from version to version, but this should be basically accurate for every version of word from '97 onwards.

    It's not nearly bright enough for a freeflyer; it doesn't have any neon . Of the options posted, my fave is the black & navy. Maybe put the piping in a brighter colour so you look cool on video?

    Judging if someone is less than 5ft off the ground at one single point is a relatively easy problem to solve - a video camera or infrared beam can do this. Judging if they stay below 5ft across an entire swoop course is a little tricker, as you've got a much larger area to cover. Thinking about it, you could probably get away with sensors every 20-30m.
