Therein lies the basic problem , a lot of training aircraft are not cleared for intentional spinning which poses another question. If an aircraft is cleared for unintentional spinning why not intentional spinning?

I think jgs43 made a good comment about that earlier in this thread. Ill copy and paste it so you dont have to look for it:

“The fact that an aircraft is placarded as not to be spun, is not necessarily because it is dangerous to spin it or it has not been designed for spinning. In many cases it is because it does not meet the requisite requirements within the JAR or FAA design requirements to permit it to be used for intentional spin training. With gliders this may be because the air brakes are not speed limiting under the JAR requirements in Europe.”

“if Christiannity and Turkish occupation didnt stopped the Greek civilization from its advanced progress in mathematics , chemistry and physics the Greeks could have been to space 600 years before the Americans”
(Arthur C. Clarke)

I have to comment on your sig- First off I think it was the Romans who finished off Greek civilisation and they werent a Christian empire. Later the Turks or more accurately the Bizantines were the most advanced and cultured civilization of the middle ages. Most all the great minds of Greece studied at foriegn universitys in Egypt, Persia and Babylon. Infact alexandria had the greatest library in that age. The Greeks were not very good at giving credit for origen of their information, for example the Pathagarian theorm was known in Babylon thousands of years before the existance of Greece.

BTW-Were you in an auto accident or not?

No Mexican should make up any portion of our national work force. Our work force should be completely made up of Americans. Become a citizen and the jobs and the other benefits will be yours. Until your paying taxes you don’t get the programs they pay for. Simple as that.

So are you saying all 6 million migrant workers should become US citizens or do you really think that you can find Americans to replace all these workers?

Vortex- Theres something Ive been wanting to ask you and your email and PM is disabled on this forum, so could you email me at [email]naoscapitan@yahoo.com[/email]

Schwarzenegger has always been a big Republican supporter, and is certainly not ignorant of the political scene. I think someone like him in the governor’s chair would be a good idea for the short term. No major political deals to worry about, just get the state back into shape and take care of the people instead of the party. For example, a serious and violent crackdown on illegal immigration would be an excellent start to ending the budgetary problems in California. No more driver’s licenses or free health care. Deportation. Better border control (more like positive border control). That’s the way to go. If people want to come to the US, make them do it legally.

A serious and violent crackdown on illegal immigration? What do you think Mexicans do in the US, go on summer vacation? Mexicans make up a huge part of the US workforce, they should have rights to minimum wage and healthcare just like any other laborer. Mexico has been trying to make transient labor legal for many years, especially recently with President Fox, but it is the US who insists on keeping transient labor illegal using 9/11 as an excuse for security risks. SOC-What kind of country has the US become that you would deny health care to farm laborers who put affordable food on your table?

Why do you keep warning against beer G?

I know alcohol is bad for you if you are cold, a nip to warm you up might actually kill you because alcohol makes the veins and arteries dilate and makes the warmth that your blood carries end up near your extremities and skin rather than near your body core where it is needed.
If that is true… and I am pretty sure it is then a little alcohol should help keep your core temperature from going up to high (ie heat stroke etc).

If you were to get drunk, lie out in the sun and go to sleep, the combination of drunkeness, heat of the sun and sleep can slow down your metabolism to the point that your heart will stop beating and youll die.

I dont think I have to explain to anyone here how volatile and explosive gasoline is. So if someone were to want to make napalm for ilicite use, I would encourage them to do so because the most likely person theyre going to hurt is themselves. Making homemade explosives is dangerous bussiness which is why most terrorists buy theirs.

If anyone has seen The Recruit with Colin Farrell, the thing the one person (I don’t want to give too much away for those who haen’t seen it) uses to smuggle data out of CIA headquarters is one of these.

Poor Sandra Bullock had to save the world with a floppy disc. Someone should also tell Sandra how to close a webpage after viewing it on someone elses computer so they dont suspect anything.

napalm is a mixture of naptha and gasoline. It was extensively used by the byzantines, and was refered to as “greek fire” They used to shoot it out hoses on to other ships. When naptha is on fire, it cant be put out with water, infact water spreads the flames. It amazes me it was never used passed this age in sea warfare as once you set a ship alight with naptha, there is almost no way to put the fire out.
