From 10,000 feet, Cooper could not see the ground or any horizontal reference points and he would not have any directional reference points unless he could spot the North Star, or some such thing, as he was tumbling. The human brain must process the clues concerning the above reference points in order to provide inputs to Cooper's hands, feet, and anything else he had to use in stabilizing himself. No clues to the brain means no meaningful inputs to the hands and feet. Velly intelestink, Dr. 99. I had no idea you were a practicing pediatric neurologist, too. Dr. Fu-Man Spock sayeth: Basic Response #2: sensation of falling; Baby cries and extends legs, arms, and fingers, arches back, then retracts arms and legs; Duration: Until fall is broken by impact or upward resistence. The falling response requires no external references in order to activate. Without the "all-over support" of the ambiotic fluid in the womb, the baby frequently experiences a "falling" sensation and startles awake. This reflex is autonomic, controled mainly by the The medulla oblongata portion of the old brain which controls autonomic functions such as breathing, digestion, heart rate, and basic suvival functions. An array of sensors in the inner ear and along the lower back feed the medulla in this basic function. During gestation, the mother's movements and hormone levels supply the fetus' developing neurology the basic neurologcal parameters needed to establish the critical support-falling baseline.

FWIW... He pulled on the count of 10 Mississippi. Nope! It was 1-potata, 2-potata, He jumped on 7-potata more.

Consider this. When it was commonly thought the earth was flat, if you had crowd sourced the question "What is the shape of the Earth?", what answer would have been returned? . "What is Earth" ? "To hand of me this nephesh runs how?" Verbs of being and any structures for forming abstract thoughts are a very recent addition to human language, and only in the strict minority of the upper-educated classes! The 'crowd' would not have had the faintest idea what you were talking about much less been able to answer your qestion. "Man is a superficially rational animal" (HL Mencken)

I admit to having a quick look at your first link. What's the difference between his slurs and the childish insultingly captioned pictures you printed? Honestly, between you and Bruce.... Let's just say I'm glad I know some other journalists, or my opinion of the profession would be at an all-time low right now. He will never work for the New York Thymes! Or that other one either! How boot dis guy for Cooper eh? He's the real deal. A real French Canadian, from Dialect Zone IIIb-2.3. No accent! Will Tom and Carol be sending drones over Canada, the Washougal, and Columbia to look for Cooper, eh?

Did he live?

And you think anyone here might be interested in this because ....??? Because he's another victim of the Cooper Curse. This guy has it BAD. how about some on=topic posterooes Bobert?

Flew in and out of French Canada, eh. Which French Canada? Franco-Newfoundlanders, province of Newfoundland and Labrador, also known as Terre-Neuvien(ne). Franco-Ontarians, province of Ontario, also referred to as Ontarien(ne). Franco-Manitobans, province of Manitoba, also referred to as Manitobain(e). Fransaskois, province of Saskatchewan, also referred to Saskois(e). Franco-Albertans, province of Alberta, also referred to Albertain(e). Franco-Columbians, province of British Columbia mostly live in the Vancouver metro area. Also referred to as Franco-Colombien(ne) Franco-Yukonnais, territory of Yukon, also referred to as Yukonais(e). Franco-Ténois, territory of Northwest Territories, also referred to as Ténois(e). Franco-Nunavois, territory of Nunavut, also referred to as Nunavois(e). Acadians residing in the provinces of New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia represent a distinct francophone culture. This group's culture and history evolved separately from the French Canadian culture of Quebec, at a time when the Maritime Provinces were not part of what was referred to as Canada, and are consequently considered a distinct culture from French Canadians. Brayons in Madawaska County, New Brunswick and Aroostook County, Maine may be identified with either the Acadians or the Québécois, or considered a distinct group in their own right, by different sources. French Canadians outside Quebec are more goosey-lucy than those within. d'où Carol a cette idée idiote que tout français parlez le même dialecte sans l'accent ? eh? Canadian French is an umbrella term for the distinct varieties of French spoken by francophone Canadians: Québécois (Quebec French), Acadian French, Métis French, and Newfoundland French. Unlike Acadian French and Newfoundland French, the French of Ontario, the Canadian West, and New England all originate from what is now Quebec French and do not constitute distinct varieties from it, though there are some regional differences. French Canadians may also speak either Canadian English or American English dialects. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_language_in_Canada b;lah b;lah b;lah http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fc58LlmF-is

Has anyone considered entering this thread into a super computer and try to make some sense of all the data you all have collected. R. Hal would blow a circuit and hurl us out toward Uranus. Wait - we are already there! What do mean by "entering this thread into ..." ? Print it out and shove it into the ..... what? Another lonely dreamer! NEXT PLEEZ!

You need to add Other to 7 and 8. There are other alteratives you dont list - here's your poll

I wanted one of those things back in the day - no way short of holding up the local grocer I was ever going to get one, much less two. Weekly paper route netted only $2.25 profit per week! Snow shoveling also a buck a house, driveways included. Hell it took me a year to save up enough to buy an Elvis album ... and then my dog ate the album! Life is so unfair.

Silly ole me. I thought it was 377 who came up with the walkie-talkie idea. And Snow who came up with the Dan Cooper comic. And SA Carr who linked it to Cooper, hypothetically. I didnt think you had been born yet! I am deeply offended. I first floated the idea of walkie talkies on the thread ** Just kidding about being offended. 377 took the idea and ran with it. Besides he is a Cooper nut and honestly I would rather not be put in that category Oh My God! Now there are three! I very humbly apologise, taar taar - had I known - 377, Nigel now has a claim against you! Marvelous. Nigel copywrite your posts from now on. Like Jo does. Happy Holidays to you.

... she may have *borrowed* some elements of her story from the original version of Blast. What elements? The suggestion that Cooper may have used walkie talkies, and trying to 100% link the comic to Christiansen. Silly ole me. I thought it was 377 who came up with the walkie-talkie idea. And Snow who came up with the Dan Cooper comic. And SA Carr who linked it to Cooper, hypothetically. I didnt think you had been born yet!

Now that makes sense! This will work itself out in time, at least I hope it will, knowing who Cooper was may take more time and I am trying my best to stay neutral on Marla. Its all about evidence! Happy holidays. lhayim. shalom. Are the Jones involved in this at all? In and around 3sisters? Yes or No so far as you know, because I havent done anything to try and find out. Have you? Give our best to Shelly. BTW my email was never shut down to you. I just let you think it was!

Why do you dislike my computer? What did my computer do to your dog? Arent you saying "Georger doesnt knowwhat he's talking about"? Its me, not the gadget with chips and a keyboard.. the computer doesnt run itself! (or does it?). Do you think the Marla Story was concocted to disrupt or sidetrack Blevins? Do you think KC was Cooper? And this! Are any of the Jones's related to any of the Coopers at Three Sisters? What does Shelly think? What church did they attend?

The point that was being made was the timelne given was enough to dismiss Marla's story. Jerry I understand what you are saying. Do you want the FBI to close this case and proclaim Cooper died, in the Washougal? What is it you want the FBI to do - what outcome do you want? What have you been waiting to have happen? Why are you still in this if you already know the facts and the outcome?

Did they actually say that LD had been dismissed? . No they didn't or that would be page-one. Thomas is just engaging in wishful thinking again, and painting the barn to look like a water fall. Jerry Thomas does not speak for the FBI and they are not telling him their every move and thought. I think you all may be missing something which could be important, ie the personal vita for DB Cooper. He had one! He had a family and personal history. What circumstances bring a person to hijack? I can assure you with absolute certainty, the professional at the FBI have given that some thought, especially after the initital crime and Cooper not being apprehended, such work done by specialists within the FBI. Very likely a profile has been created for DB Cooper, and it may have been updated with current techniques and modeling. The Marla story may be being evaluated in that context; and any other claims by others likewise. Marla and the facts she has about family history are going to be judged in terms of the FBI's profile and maybe by specialists in that field. So, revealing particulars in Marla's family and personal history may actually be helping profilers in their evaluation of LD vis-a-vis Marla, family history, and a Cooper profile! So, rather than revealing Marla to be a liar, the poster could find the exact reverse effect than what the poster intended. Marla already said she had revealed "all" to the FBI. So Marla is already immunized, as it were, to jerkoffs posting on internet forums, and anything they could say or reveal may only be the very proof profilers are looking for!!! Its in the hands of the FBI. I seriously doubt anything said here will matter, much less decide this matter, for Marla or for the FBI. You might have kept Marla around for another day or two before you slit your own wrists with your greed and "opinions" hoping for an effect and fame. Isaiah 40:4 Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill shall be made low; the Spirit of the Lord moves through all things, that high and proud thoughts may be brought down, good desires examined like grain, the best planted, the worst thrown aside, and the road made even in the forgiveness and making of things, vayomer Elohim.

You have to wait untill daybreak which is around 8 am in this area. (Check with Kim Cornett producer from NBC Today for verification of this she was there at this time on 16 Nov} well you dont need Producer Kim Cornet. US Naval Observatory records are fine. Civil twilight began at 6:48am at Ariel/BTG Sunrise 7:23am. I posted all of this before - The whole scenario you give may not be accurate. Its all guesswork on your part.

Uh, everyone so sure? You know something nobody else, not even Marla, knows ? Its like what the hermit said when after 90 long years a little girl from the village passed by his cave door: " I'm gittin the hell out of here. I can't stand the constant interuption!"

Well you needn't concern yourself. The FBI is just fine, and so is Marla. Marla dipped her toe in the River Dropzone and said: "Oh! Its just what I thought it would be" ... and Marla found nothing and no one, compelling here. Be assured it isnt her loss! Marla - a conspiracy to undo Blevins!?

Non-interference for the Subaru, at least the GL-10 wagon. I had a Fiat once that snapped the belt at 17,000. Engine was ruined. Never bought another one. Your concern should be your ACLs, your livere titres, the walls of your small arties (in your brain), and your lower body circulation particularly your feet and lower legs! Have you been feeling limp lately, with obsessive-compulsive flareups and delusions of grandeur? Your liddle car is the least of your problems! But Jerry Thomas has a homebrew solution for that too! Jerry is your friend, and will see you through... Baruq Adonai - we knew him well.

and this concern of you concerns the Cooper case how ? I have just posted a wealth of real information if you are interested in the Cooper case - Georger, I've seen all that info on the Cooper comics already at Cool French Comics or wherever you picked it up. But it was good you posted it. My point was simple. If Marla was divorced for a few years before suddenly deciding to return to her maiden name...and this change in name occurred just PRIOR to her going public, or investigating the case, it is frankly suspicious. I will be upfront here. Without solid testimony from Marla's family members regarding her comic story, I have to reject it on its face. She's added more to this story as she goes along. First, it was only that LD had copies on his bedroom wall. Then...it advances to her taking down the copies and trying to read them. Why do I always have to be the one to ask the direct questions? (*laughs*) It's not fair! Out of everybody who lived under that roof who is still alive, where is just ONE family member who will verify her story about the comics...and do it publicly? Sister? Brother? Mother? Where ARE these people? I've brought this up before, but imagine how her credibility would jump overnight if all of them were to appear on television or a media interview and give the same story about the comics. Or at least confirm they are sure they saw them at that time...that they EXISTED IN THE HOME. If they were willing to all go on the record, or at least SOME of them, especially her mother, then her claim would be a bit more believable. This is a legit question. In her interview, why didn't Marla's mother offer up the same story? You might figure she would know, unless there was a sign on LD's bedroom door that said 'Marla Only'. You can persue the social angle as you want. My interest is the evidence. Dan Cooper was conceived in 1954 by Weinberg etal in order to compete with a similar character in another publication, but not released until Feb 2 1955. LD Cooper was released from service in April of 1955. So only two months available when he could have seen any Dan Cooper comic in England, if it was there. None had been released prior to Feb 2 1955 if the data is correct. LD must then be exposed to the Dan Cooper comic at another time and place ?

You evidently have been busy elsewhere - in one published account it is said LD spent time recovering in hospital in England. Did you not know this?

and this concern of you concerns the Cooper case how ? I have just posted a wealth of real information if you are interested in the Cooper case -

For your consideration: LD's service: Enlistment Date 1: 29 Dec 1951 Release Date 1: 22 Apr 1955 Part of the above time presumably spent in hospitalisation in England. Place of hospitalisation unknown. (any number of American servicemen would also have been hospitalised at the same facility perhaps going back into WWII) Dan Cooper was originally conceived and serialized in the weekly "Tintin" magazine in 1954, and released Feb 2 1955, as competition to a similar character in a competing magazine. Publication dates of various issues can be seen at: http://www.coolfrenchcomics.com/dancooper.htm Copies of interest: (list reflects only those earlier than 1971) Le Triangle Bleu [The Blue Triangle] (#1) (TI Nos. 323-370, release Feb 2, 1955; Lombard, 1957) Le Maître du Soleil [The Master Of The Sun] (#2) (TI Nos. 394-443, 1956-57; Lombard, 1958) Le Mur du Silence [The Wall Of Silence] (#3) (TI Nos. 445-475, 1957; Lombard, 1959) Operation Jupiter (#4) (TI Nos. 476-506, 1958; Lombard, 1979) Cap sur Mars [Destination Mars] (#5) (TI 519-564, 1959; Lombard, 1960) Les 3 Cosmonautes [The 3 Cosmonauts] (#10) (TI 760,-790, 1963; Lombard, 1966) Le Mystere des Soucoupes Volantes [The Mystery Of The Flying Saucers] (#14) (TI Nos. 903-930, 1966; Lombard, 1969) Panique à Cap Kennedy [Panic At Cape Kennedy] (#15) (TI Nos 945-962, 1967; Lombard, 1970) SOS dans l'Espace [SOS In Space] (#17) (TI Nos. 996-1017, 1968; Lombard, 1971) Apollo Appelle Soyouz [Apollo Calling Soyuz] (#20) (TI Nos. 1086-1106, 1969; Lombard, 1973) Was DanCooper release date Feb 2 1955 at the hospital facility LD stayed at for an extended time, in England - released from service 22 April 1955 ?

I believe these are the same settings previously found and discussed here by Snow, 377, and others earlier. An issue developed, ie. what was the last setting change just prior to Cooper bailing; 30 vs 15 degrees? Snow asked me specifically, as a test to see if I was paying attention, I replied "30 degrees". Snow agreed humorously. [This is how I remember this exchanges without looking it up] Anyone can offer a correction - The rest of your post is "excellent" info! Thanks! Cooper did say "15 degrees" from somewhere (in his head) to verbalise it. (It has been offered one crew member heaing this reacted and said something like, 'he probably has the ____ manual back there!' - showing crew frustration.) Cooper was calm and cool, deliberate with instructions, if you set aside the brief periods where he displayed some temper and anxiety reported by Tina. I wonder how this squares with LD's general personality at the time? And the "sadness" some have reported Tina reporting - how does this mesh with LD's persoanlity traits during that period or generally? LD was a little more than 40 years old on 11-24-71.
