If I am not mistaken, those are either the new acquisitions that have not been restored/brought in yet, or they are the planes that were recently brought back from loaner collections, which are also meticulously cleaned and checked upon return.
Dayton is seriously anal about keeping their collection in excellent condition, to the point of suing other galleries who have not met the standards that they require. (such as the Memphis Belle)
New York was the least deserving. I'm not knocking New York itself, but the one at the Smithsonian isn't all that far away and they don't have a Space Center there.
The only reason New York has a shuttle is it was the shuttle that was left after all the deserving blue states got one. Johnson deserved to get the Enterprise at the least, one of the others by any real world measurement of the situation. Texas is a red state, and granted Houston is more likely to get a hurricane than New York most of the time, but the partisan politics of the Enterprise sitting there at all is sickening. I don't care what your political leanings are, the obvious partisanship in the decision is as wrong as Google's current single sided issue promotion on their resources.
You misspelled Dayton, where they know how to take care of historical aircraft and don't leave them out to rust in the sun, like Texas did.
Great. Tell me how I appeal to the DEA please, because I have been trying to plead this case for about 2 and a half years now, and so have several thousand doctors who have patients who can no longer access their medicines.
Thanks to Non-Prescription use I am not able to get my PRESCRIPTION ADHD meds filled due to the tightening of DEA guidelines on amphetamine salts.
I need my meds to function. Without them I am pretty much useless. I have been on Dexedrine for almost 20 years, but my prescription has gone from (no-insurance prices) $50 to over $400 a month.
I can't afford it, and unless I can get a decent job I can't get prescription coverage to get my meds, but I can't get my meds without a prescription.
Mostly thanks to recreational users and college age drug seekers who want to party all night and still carry a 3.5.
Enjoy your parties, and higher scores... just know that it might not be YOU that is paying the price. It might be someone else who is paying the price for your cheating your way through school on speed.
And the 5 buttons on the right side of the controller (with their corresponding red lights) for playing that game show that was on for about a month.
I miss the old WarnerAmex controllers. Cord or no cord. It was easier./I'll get off my own lawn now.
I seem to have the unrootable phone now. This Nexus-S just won't do it, and I have done everything by the book, followed all the guides... Hell, I even watched the damned video just in case I was doing something wrong!
Must be something my provider does to them. Cincinnati Bell has a new obsession with doing interesting things to phones now.
Only after they are detained for some other reason can they ask for immigration status.
So what? The problem is that AZ still requires the police to determine the immigration status of a person by doing little more than looking at them. That it only happens in the context of some other event doesn't make it any more reasonable.
Anyway how is this any different than anyone else getting stopped by the police and being asked for identification such as a drivers license?
Well, that's illegal. The cops have no legal grounds to demand ID of anyone unless they have reason to suspect wrong-doing. At best they an ask for a person's name, but they can't demand ID.
I wish that were still true here in Ohio, but thanks to the Ohio Patriot Act Sec. 2909.31, Law enforcement may demand Identification of anyone at anytime. Failure to comply, if you have legally issued ID, is a misdemeanor.
Yeah, the episodes regarding things exploding in a car (Soda Cans and Lighters) pissed me off quite a bit.
Problem with the science in the lighter episode was that they chose one brand (a bic) and did all experiments with that lighter. I have never seen a bic malfunction, explode in a car, or have the wheel and spring come flying off, while cheaper lighters have those problems often.
I have had more than a few soft drinks explode in a hot (or cold) car, and had lighters explode in my car. (Working with wax, you keep them around a lot)
Mythbusters never replied to my criticism of either.
Wow dude, way to try and down fark while pushing your own weak ass bullshit site in your sig.

No, he has a point.

My 1990 Acura had a problem starting when it was really hot out, but not all the time.
Turns out there was a relay below the steering wheel that was related to fuel pump operation. That relay would fail to work if it was over 100F in the footwell of the passenger compartment.
So, if I parked in the sun on a hot day, and went in to get groceries, the car would not start when I came back out. If I left the window down enough to let some air cooling happen, the car would start.
Now, I used to work on cars for a living, and I was totally stumped as to why on some days the car just refused to start.
It was not until I was stuck in traffic on a really hot day that I found out that the issue was related to the temp in the passenger compartment, not the temperature of the engine.
I've done fetish shows and high end precious and semi-precious gemstone shows where I would estimate that at least 50% of the selling goes on before or after hours.
Basically, any kind of product where; 1) The retailer may not be comfortable with the products for fear of blackmail [Just because you are a high end jewelry and clothing boutique, doesn't mean you don't sell latex corsets and vac beds on weekends] 2) Prices are based more on what the seller knows than what the product is worth. [gem shows are huge for that kind of thing. 3) Where price depends on venue. [That $200 piece of white turquoise might be worth $100 in Tuscon, but $500 in Chicaqo] So prices are best discussed in a private setting.
The other day, I saw some scientist on TV saying that during mission Apollo 11, they installed mirrors on the moon and that he is still using them today by shooting LASER beams at them from the Earth in order to gather data from the reflection (moon distance etc. )
Now some Slashdot reader must have a powerful enough LASER beam around in order to shoot at the moon. Could this good Samaritan please test if those mirrors are really there and report back to us so we can close this case ?
Thanks in advance;-))
The scientist said that none of the conspiracy theorists ever went to see him so he could show them the beam reflecting on those mirrors. I am wondering how many people are aware of those mirrors on the moon...

Well, I'll be damned. I'm finally prepared for something.

You could make a compilation out of it. Call it "House of Leaves."
I think I would call it "Haunted" and let my sister produce it, and make one of the best concept disks of all time.

Well, yeah... I suppose maybe.
