A quarter of Americans think the Sun goes around the Earth
Remster replied to lawrocket's topic in Speakers Corner
You do not know that. You are assuming how the responses are distributed. What we do know is that it is the religious fundies who are trying to undermine scientific-based facts in education. I am not aware of any union-based drive to add mythology to science classes. Remster -

The religious fundies. I think it's pretty clear cut. They're doing "god's work" via the Texas Board of Education and its revisions of textbooks. We're essentially heading back into the dark ages with some of these folks. If you haven't read it, I recommend http://www.amazon.com/Whats-Matter-Kansas-Conservatives-America/dp/080507774X Remster -
This isn't the main point of the thread, but I wanted to comment on this... Nicky: it's either of 2 things: these skygods were complete assholes (which I doubt); or maybe they were training and were focused on the ground / in the plane. If they were training (or focused for whatever reason), they would be happy to sign your logbook later when they are less busy. I do not know anyone who would say no if asked, if they have the time. If they really were assholes, time to find a new dropzone to visit if you visit that area again!

Warranty is pretty much non-existent in the sport. Considering the liability, I can understand that ("my daughter fell from 13,000ft on a malfunctioning parashoot still under warranty! I'm suing!"). Now, customer service and how they deal with a problem with an item will vary widely between brands: some will replace for free; some will repair or replace at a very low cost; some will ignore your contact attempts. and all points in between.
