Given that this is Usenet, home of foul mouths and pathetic human beings, I am wondering why you are posting here, Panning gold among some useless pebbles? when you could be hanging out with much more higher forms of humans on the Nevada Side of South Lake Tahoe, or in that temple of higher learning, Carson City. You mean those flashing [neon] lights, endless noise making [slot] machines, and mindless small talks of money/casino cultured so-called "high society"? Spare me. I'm confused what you mean by "higher forms of humans." IS -ted |

I say give them a few years to fix the easy bugs using the French as test subjects, then the rest of us can take the risk. |

If you can name an airliner that's never going to crash, I'd love to hear about it. I'd much rather make my 14 hour flights in planes that haven't crashed much in the past, as opposed to ones that're going to crash like hell in the future, and kill 800 people per time. How many times did Concordes crash? |
