quade 3 #26 January 16, 2006 How about this one Pat, written by Lao Tsu about 500 bc. This probably wasn't written about formation skydiving, but ya never can tell how visionary these guys were. Sure does sound like formation skydiving to me and would still make for some pretty good advice either way. Quote Five Heaven and Earth are impartial; They see the ten tousand things as straw dogs. The wise are impartial; They see people as straw dogs. The space between heaven and earth is like a bellows. The shape changes but not the form; The more it moves, the more it yields. More words count less. Hold fast to the center. quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
