It's not just hydrogen that carries that story, ethanol blended fuel is just as bad. With the current farming techniques we use in the western world it requires about 4 units of fuel for every 1 unit we get out of the whole process. It requires alot of diesel to run a tractor.
Since we're talking about how much oxygen is in a room I think I should point out that the standard atmosphere is around 21% oxygen and 78% nitrogen and 1% other.
Anyone wanting some good reading material on this subject check out "How We Believe" by Michael Shermer. He's got some pretty good insight about religion and how it evolved and it's written from an athiest point of view.
And I believe that throwing a rock through a window is good for business too since it employs the windowmaker, the policeman, and also creates publicity for the store that has a broken window.
Alright it's really bugging me now. What is that "First they came for ******, and I was silent" a parody of, what's the original? It's eating me up inside! (kind of an odd feeling)
Things are scary all over my friend. I live in Canada and have been in a few control towers and what NavCanada uses for all their computers is Windows 2000 (maybe XP its been a while). I try not to think about it when I'm flying. Although the radar screen does look pretty.
So does anyone know just how much porn there is on the internet? I'm looking for hard statistics cause most "normal" people don't get it when I refer to my connection as a "porn pipe".
The whole cell phone thing pisses me off. Not everyone is able to talk and drive at the same time, those same people have trouble chewing gum and walking at the same time. I am able to talk and drive and know that driving is my priority. And don't tell me that I need two hands on the wheel at all times, ever heard of a standard transmission. Now that said I probably wouldn't be screwing around on a cell phone in heavy traffic, but then I live in Saskatchewan and there's not too much traffic on these roads. It's just a matter of paying attention.
30 knots of crosswind eh? how often do you see that, not to often. for starters, in order to get a 30kt crosswind at an airport that has runways 90 degrees from each other (quite common) you would need a 22 knot wind at 45 degrees to a runway which is worst case scenario. (for you metric freak out there that's 40 kph) Not too common unless you are in the middle of a thunderstorm or hurricane or there is a cold front passing (in which case wait 1/2 hour). Besides, aircraft of the World War I era didn't have rudders so they had a maximum demonstrated crosswind landing component of ZERO so the temporary solution was to have a large field where the planes could take off and land in any direction hence the name airfield.
PS most light aircraft have a maximum demonstrated crosswind component of 15 knots.
Monsanto has been suing farmers
i believe a good example of this is Percy Schmeiser http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percy_Schmeiser
his case went all the way to the supreme court of canada

Still think banned cell phones have nothing to do with navagation interference?
Great, now I have a list of hardware to avoid buying for my linux box.
Just tried a flight, shows hills and everything. Way more than I expected from an easter egg. Kudos to the guy who dreamed this up.

Like the rest of us learned in sex-ed, abstinence is the only way to have 100% security.
Hey 1990 called, they want their VCR joke back!

I suggest you get a Citizen Skyhawk like mine, it's great for a pilot cause it has a whiz wheel (it's a circular slide rule), really comes in handy.
This pill reminds me of this: http://imdb.com/title/tt0116768/
great movie.

I usually let my 28.8kbps connection decide if I like the site, and I am a very impatient fellow.
I don't believe grammar or spelling have anything to do with national socialism.

I'm a surly drunk and definitely not a morning person. They go hand in hand.
