  3. a lot of car stereos (both oem and aftermarket) will let you connect an ipod and control it through the head unit interface while the ipod stays tucked away and fully charged. "Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart." MB4252 TDS699 killing threads since 2001

  6. This is NOT true. If you purchase any Rights Managed (Legally Purchased songs) in WMA format, iTunes WILL NOT covert them. You only choice is to burn the songs to a CD and then Rip them back off the CD in MP3 (Or other compatible format). ..true, but i was referring to wma's ripped from your own cd's. i had a bunch because i used windows media player to manage my old rio, so anything i ripped was a wma, and they were not drm encoded, and itunes will/did convert them for me without issue.

  7. ipods will play pretty much anything (mp3, mp4, aac) except wma. itunes will offer to convert any wma's to mp4's when you import them. that said, i find itunes kinda clunky, but it works. i have a 4gb nano, so i don't have to change out my music much.

  8. i'm not 100% sure, but i believe you're thinking of the bonehead liner that you can "bake'n'shape". the carbon fibre itself doesn't change shape, just the foam liner. "Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart." MB4252 TDS699 killing threads since 2001
  9. i have (had) a sabre 190 for 100 jumps or so. i learned to pack it. made a huge difference. edited to answer your original question: don't forget to add a lotus to your list of considerations.

  11. my 17 year old daughter was wandering around singing that. took me a bit to figure out it was floyd, then i had to ask her where she heard it! i think she just likes the bit about the mouse named gerald.

  12. What I was referring to as the 'brain bucket' explanation.....is that it holds in the ooze when they pick you off the ground..... i thought they were mostly for people who jump cessnas. the back edge of the wing is sharp!

  15. there's one flying regularly in nova scotia, but denren would have more info on it than i would. that said, i'll be jumping it this summer. "Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart." MB4252 TDS699 killing threads since 2001

  19. similar story, happier ending. i went up to do a hop'n'pop after we threw some students out at 3500. first student gets dispatched, i stick my head out to wath the deployment, and my helmet leaves. forgot to buck the chin strap after i took it off at 1500 feet, then decided i might as well wear it since there was no place to put it down. after i landed and packed, i went searching around in the area of the spot, but no luck. went back and looked at our aerial photo with the dzo and he suggested that i look a little further than i had gone, and on the other side of the runway. off i go, and there, glinting in the sun, is my helmet. abotu 20 feet off the runway in the short grass. not a scratch on it. of course, it was only a protec i had just bought for my bike and was trying out for jumping. didn't even have my ditter installed in it. had it been a $400 camera helmet with a new video camera attached it would have shattered, been stuck in a tree and eaten by bears.

  20. no, not really. i don't think that one would flare very well. i was thinking it would be cool to get a 'my other ride is a lotus' bumper sticker though... "Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart." MB4252 TDS699 killing threads since 2001
  21. another way to look at it is that if you use your shoulders to turn, move in a circle with your knees as the middle of the circle. if you turn with your knees, you'll move in a circle with your shoulders as the middle of the circle. if you use both ends of your body to turn, you'll move in a circle with your belly button as the middle of the circle. this would be a center point turn.
