cliffharris 0 #153 January 29, 2004 Pot Heads! That label always brings a smile to my face. What's with all that huffin and puffin anyway? Is it really necessary? And what have you eating more than your fair share of the world's snack supply? Walking around town with tiny eyes. Could you be blind folded with dental floss? Yes, i say. ~ Pot Head! Pot Head! Whatcha gonna do! Whatcha gonna do when blue skies call for you! ~ OK, enough gibberish. it's back to work for me... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't think this was about legality. My own opinion is that pot should be decriminalized and that the government has no business telling adults what they should or should not ingest. But it is also my opinion that I do not wish to jump or fly with someone who has recently been using mind-altering substances, legal or not. I would be more than happy to play tiddleywinks with someone smoking a joint.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

Gravitymaster 0 #156 January 29, 2004 QuoteQuoteFirst, there are no shades of gray when your actions endanger others. Risk is a lot more compex topic than you seem to understand. There is a difference between the perception of risk and actual risk. The risk of you being killed by a skydiver who has had a smoke is far, far less than your risk of being killed driving to the dropzone. Why, then, are you not indignant about the dangers of cars? People drive when they are tired or depressed all the time - and yet they are technically not breaking the law. I maintain that there are people who smoke and jump who can outfly you in every way, and are far less of a "threat" to your safety than someone with 50 jumps spiralling down over the landng area. It's all relative. Oh, really. Where do you jump? I've noticed you conveniently left that off you profile. Perhaps a telephone call placed to the PIC and DZO is in order.

I do not contest your choice either way but, I know I don't have a brother because of "Hey just a couple hits".

Michele 1 #167 January 29, 2004 Hey, GravityMaster? AS is the same guy who wrote: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I've just received my new Cobalt in the post from Atair. On examining it I can see circular holes cut deliberately into every rib. They are placed about four or five inches down into the rib. Some ribs have holes which are about two inches in diameter, some have holes which are smaller - probably less than an inch in diameter. Forgive my ignorance, but why exactly? I don't remember the demo Cobalt I jumped several months ago having those holes... perhaps I didn't look hard enough?" ~~~~~~~~~ My only question was at which point was he high....when he demo'd the Cobalt, or when he received his own? ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (and I really wish Andrew Stewart had "Sam" as a middle name...)
