sounds like the Grand Jury system needs to be reevaluated as well then. I would rather have a 9/11 once a year (wouldnt significantly effect population growth rates in America anyway) than give the goverment anymore access to my personal information than it already has. They level of information you can get now without serious need is to much. hell i dont want a SSN a Drivers license # or a passport # but the fact that i do have them means the bureaucracy knows more about my life (and everyone elses) than it reasonably should. I'm all for making your job harder and more cumbersome to reduce such scrutiny at the expense of letting a few evildoer slip by. If you have a problem with 10-hour days then get a new job. Freedom is more important than the perception of security. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

well said Wendy..it SHOULD be a pain in the ass for the government to invade my privacy. If it costs a significant amount of time and energy to simply investigate then system is harder to abuse and less likely to be used 'frivolously' in what is being described it would be far to easy for a bored government drone to find out everything they wanted about someone. I’ve been around the planet a few to many times to have that much faith in human nature..and yes i consider the collecting of that much information about me an invasion. Our democracy is a cumbersome inefficient process as well, should we stream line it so the next CIC wont have to jump thru all the hoops to invade or raise taxes..whatever.. without the checks and balances of congress and the courts? Anyone remember the axiom about the mills of the gods? safety is not worth freedom. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

i dont know Quade i think the karma for wishing bad things on someone is having someone wish bad things on you .... he is definitely a prick. took off and landed in about 5 min, for no apparent reason than to see if 'anything occurred' (nothing did and he stayed in his airspace) but damn that was a pretty plane.. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

Black humor is ALWAYS in bad taste to someone..someone, somewhere knows someone that whatever situtation is being mocked occured to.. actually i think the reason that it went by without comment is that the BEST RESPONSE to any troll bait (this could qualify) is to ignore it.. far to many people get their 'panties in a wad' over such things you know what? Shit happens.. cry or laugh its your choice because you cant change it once its happened. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

looks like the french 4-way team from the preview.. edit..nope its the 8 way, and it appears they took a dude out on his first (or very very early) jump to do 9 way RW... a qoute "nickolas finds the air resistance so strong he can scarcely control his movements and must rely on his teammates...." and they literally flew him everywhere and pulled for him too.. damn i want my own private 130... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

last time i checked skydiving was an "unnecessary risk" and as a "200 jump wonder" i'd love to drink your beer. depending on the standards set for the test..5 jumps? 10? ..

Do you recieve a hard time from your co-workers about skydiving?
Zenister replied to nubain1's topic in The Bonfire

well i'm bored so lets see what i can find.. real quick? an abstract for a doctors study Annual summary of vital statistics: trends in the health of Americans during the 20th century. Guyer B; Freedman MA; Strobino DM; Sondik EJ. Pediatrics 2000; 106(6):1307-17. looks intersting, would like to find the actual paper..some other interesting things on spinal injury rates further down.. a reprint of a report from FAI/IPC Techical and Safety Subcommittee Congress Helsinki, Finland, October 1993 half way down.."Skydiving Statistics" this lists comparisons of skydiving and other sports, but its old numbers wow. the total control site above has an impressive collection of skydiving info.i could be here a while
