    And if one is critical towards Jews; are they being critical of a nation or a religion? Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

    Dr. Larry "Harris" Taylor from the Univ.of Michigan; "Why I Don't Teach Kids." http://www-personal.umich.edu/~lpt/kids.htm Good Article & Presentation. Thank you for that. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

    I won't say its the "Best Decision" made in years; but I agree with it. 1. As to the point of flying at 16 years old vs. skydiving. Irrelevant - One can get Life & Liability insurance at 16 years old to fly, but not to skydive. 2. While a DZO can make a decision about their willingness to accept the liability; they're also making that decision for the pilots, riggers, packers, etc. who in most cases are independent contractors. 3. I was a TI back when we had to sign a contract with the Manufacturers not to take anyone < 18. I went to another DZ and was asked to take a kid celebrating their 16th birthday and refused. Explained that I had entered into an agreement with the manufacturer and that by violating that; opened myself to incurring the burden of liability. I worked too long in this life to get what little I have and was not willing to jeopardize that. I was taken out of rotation and was fine with that. 4. Most States won't allow a parent to sign an Assumption of Risk for their children

    Michael, Can you help me connect the dots between points 1-4. There "seems" to be a disparity in the verbiage or I'm not reading something right. "The RAIDER 2 has met TSO C23d standards to an 1.

    I write this with all sincerity... The best way to prevent broken bones is with some good one-on-one instruction at your DZ from the Instructors who can show you; rather than those who tell you over the internet. .

    I've long said that any cop/prosecutor who knowingly tries to frame a innocent person for a crime, should at minimum, get the sentence he tried to impose on the innocent. Those are, of course, the terms of Mosaic law on the subject. Isn't it more of Hammurabi's Code;than Mosaic Law? My reference was to the ninth of the 'Top Ten Commandments.' As elaborated in the Talmud, bringing false witness makes one subject to the penalty for the offense that was falsely charged. It is occasionally enforced in this country. By and large, the powers that be get a free pass. Prosecutors are not under oath, and cops, when under oath, routinely make it up as they go along with impunity. C'est la vie. I follow now. I went with, "Eye for an Eye." Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

    Best: Atlanta Rhythm Section. Not only did they play to the crowd, they played long and well. Worst: Three Dog Night - circa 1993. They just did not have their shit together, played horribly and then cut the set short. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
