    I've seen that happen before, and thought it was essentially a scam.

    She's lucky she didn't get in trouble... Anyway, at any DZ, I wonder how much "cash" is actually used other then say the gear store or gee-dunk... I'd expect that most jumps are paid for with check or credit card?? I read a while back that writing on currency was in fact protected speech.

    I have to disagree with the need for a higher wingloading. I have seen many world class canopy pilots swoop student sized canopies impressively. It is pilot skill and technique, not canopy size, that makes a good high performance landing. For Great Deals on Gear

    W3 will fit a 120-135 ZP 9cell w/o airlocks. W4 will fit a 97-107 ZP 9 cell w/o airlocks. For Great Deals on Gear

    I've seen people spend up to $1000 more on a complete rig by going direct to manufacturers, or even straight to the gear shop on their DZ, instead of taking the time to shop around a little bit. Shopping around can make a HUGE difference in price, and as you pointed out, service is nearly always better from a dealer. For Great Deals on Gear

    What kind of buy in/ limits?

    I thought it was "Nobody does it like Sara Lee." so did I... but from the sara lee website: What is the slogan for Sara Lee Bakery? a. Nobody Doesn't Like Sara Lee! b. Nobody Does It Like Sara Lee! The correct answer is 'a'. In 1968, Sara Lee introduced what was to become one of the most famous slogans and jingles of all time, “Nobody Doesn’t Like Sara Lee”. The jingle initially began, “Everybody Doesn’t Like Something, But Nobody Doesn’t Like Sara Lee” as a tune with words and music by Mitch Lee, creator of the hit Broadway show, “Man of La Mancha”. The response was immediate and incredible the theme proved thoroughly hummable, and the words well, the rest is history. Okay, but I have to admit that I'm a bit disappointed that that is the something I learned today.

    I don't generally take vacations; I just move to new places. My favorite place thus far has been Hawaii, with Key West being a distant second. Island life is great. Island time is even better. For Great Deals on Gear

    I'm sitting on a larger bottle that was brought back from Russia for me. I haven't quite found the right occasion to drink it. If I mix it with anything, it will be with fresh squeezed Florida orange juice. I believe that would make for some outstanding screwdrivers. For Great Deals on Gear

    A fine example of why it is such a good idea to DEMO FIRST!!!!!!! There's lots of good canopies out there, but there is not a single one that is best for everybody.

    you made a claim(on this forum) that other h/c manufacturers support the speedbag. i asked(on this forum) for verification of that claim. i never revealed the content of any PM i recieved. i am not even sure what you are getting at. i am just trying to verify claims made on a public forum. as i have already said in the voodoo vs. mirage thread, i was not able to find anything similar to your claim in any post in the thread you referenced. blue stuff, p.j. *shrugs shoulders, turns around and walks off, wondering why some people find it so difficult to do research* For Great Deals on Gear

    the following quote is from a post in the voodoo vs. mirage thread, not a PM. That was when I switched to PMs and linked you to the pertinent thread. Too bad the converstaion didn't stay in the PMs.

    Very interesting. Do you have a linkable source? Thanks. For Great Deals on Gear

    And more dangerous than any drug mentioned in the poll.

    i was trying to substantiate a claim made in a different thread. eventually, the answer i got was "i mis-spoke." i'm not anti-Jumpshack, i just want verification when people make certain claims. You didn't receive any additional information frrom me because you took a converstion from PMs to the forums. I linked you to a thread where an engineer from anothr H/C manufacturer offered support for the speedbag. Had you asked me for clarification in a PM, you most llikely would have received it.

    I would suggest calling Jump Shack with questions. I don't think John monitors DZ.com very much, if at all. I don't think any valid conclusions can come from his lack of response here. For Great Deals on Gear

    Given that speedbags are available on the Racer, how is it not a real world componenet? For Great Deals on Gear

    1. (9*ln(3)-8)/(4*ln(2)) 2 (50*ln(5)-32*ln(2)-39)/(18*ln(2)) The answer to question two assumes you were integrating with respect to x from 0 to 1, as in the first problem. For Great Deals on Gear
