    New Orleans... very sad

    This guy is on tartget September 2, 2005 A Can't-Do Government By PAUL KRUGMAN Before 9/11 the Federal Emergency Management Agency listed the three most likely catastrophic disasters facing America: a terrorist attack on New York, a major earthquake in San Francisco and a hurricane strike on...

    New Orleans... very sad

    A tsunami would over run stuff above sea level at a port as well. An earthquake at 9.2 on the scale would also cause havoc. Mankind cannot make itself immune from every possible natural disaster. Tornado, volcano eruptions, blizzards......they can all do bad things. We do the best our...

    New Orleans... very sad

    It's a major seaport. Grain, ore, and other things go down the Mississippi river on barges to be off loaded onto ocean going vessels for export of our goods to cash customers around the world. Also, imports from all over the world come into that seaport to be offloaded and trucked out or put...

    RC guys! I need help with Monokote

    Have you tried a heat gun? I'm not talking about a hair dryer. I had success on a model I built many years ago, circa 1982. I used an electric heat gun that can be used to blow extremely hot air onto a surface, typically sold in hardware stores for people to remove old paint from siding on a...

    home-brewing biodiesel

    At Sam's club, a two liter bottle of Olive oil (a little over a half a gallon) runs about $7.00. That's about $13.00 a gallon. Hardly an incentive to avoid gasoline at $2.55 a gallon, unless you could get a hundred miles per gallon or more out of it. And if you could get that kind of mpg...

    The real reason for the high cost of fuel.

    That was the subject of debate Bill Maher's show on HBO last night. Did you pick up on that from that show?

    The real reason for the high cost of fuel.

    You must enjoy making this stuff up. George W. Bush did NOT inherit a recession. The US had economic growth from a breakneck pace of 4.1% annually in the years 1998-2000 to a negative 1.1% in the third quarter of 2001. I’m not saying it was Bush’s “fault” that the U.S. went into negative...

    big jobs that pay badly..

    Maybe there are some regionals that pay as low as $12 an hour for a first year FO, but I can't think of one. But, they do start out low, just like a medical intern working 80 hour weeks for next to nothing. The better pay comes later.....after the dues are paid. That said, there are quite a...

    Why people go to ERAU or UND?

    DC8 Flyer hit every nail squarely on the head. He mirrored exactly in every category what my son went through at UND. It is a relatively inexpensive 4 year public university with out of state reciprocity of tuition for students from several states, and one can get a B.A. or a B.S. in any...

    What is the best flight school????

    I don't know one way or the other about the comparison of $$$ per hour between various FBO’s and 141 schools, but your large 141 schools have a ready made clientele.....the students in the school are captive customers for those CFI. The CFI employees of those schools are earning money from...

    What is the best flight school????

    Actually, the location of UND up in the frozen tundra is a bonus for ya. It's a winter survival school as well as a flight school. :) :) :) I love it up there! Great state with great hunting and hardly any people.

    Cigar Companies??

    Some of the best cigars made come from Cuba. It’s just the U.S. that has an embargo on them. You can get a fine Havana cigar in many countries. A friend purchased a box when in Spain six years ago when he was there being fitted for a custom made Arietta shot gun. He knew it was not legal to...
