kallend 1,635 #2 December 17, 2007 QuoteAgain, I've left a third option for those that don't understand the question. "The result" as in the only result, the necessary result, the sometime result if other conditions are met....? Pretty vague statement, Paul.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quade 3 #10 December 17, 2007 QuoteAre you close to reaching your point yet? I'm sadly starting to come to the conclusion that the point can't actually be reached this way. People have such a difficult time just answering the simple questions without first ascribing other conditionals to it. I wanted it to be simple, but so many people seem to want to make it more difficult than it really is. Hmmm.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJL 232 #11 December 17, 2007 QuoteAgain, I've left a third option for those that don't understand the question. I answered no because I was thinking about the fact that the medium could also change - but I'll have to take it back. I'm sure we can assume that as the objects move and emit sound or light or whatever frequency that allows us to know they exist, that the (singular or plural) media stays the same.
