A defendant's non-admission of guilt as part of a settlement agreement or consent decree is nothing more or less than that. It is not an adjudication of "not guilty", "not culpable", "not responsible", "not liable", or for that matter, of anything else. Settlement agreements in which defendants agree to do and/or refrain from doing certain things without admitting guilt are, in fact, the way the vast majority of lawsuits are concluded. Presumably, if Skyride chooses to not remediate (or fails to remediate) as agreed, the case will then proceed to an evidentiary hearing at which the issue of factual and legal culpability, or lack thereof, will be decided.

I respectfully recommend that you and your friends attend your local Denial Management Course. I feel quite sure there's one near you since Cary has a Skydive Center "Near You".

And some have even gone as far to say that the employees are just making a buck and may not care what Skyride is or how it's associated with the owner of said DZ. The only thing I've seen close to bashing is of the people who are well aware of what Skyride is, Carey's ethics and principals, lies, diceits, and yet still continue to not only work for him but outwardly support/defend his nasty business practices. I think you're argument about "bashing jumpers" is just a straw man to steer this conversation away from the real argument.

You can't stoop much lower than that. How was it discovered? When Mike Mullins helped host a Chris Martin memorial boogie, they had tandem customers show up with the Skyride gift certificates. After finding out they did call the DZ's number to buy the tandems, the boogie organizers called the number themselves and sure enough, Skyride's call operator answered. Boy did a shit-storm follow after that. Apparently, Skyride contacted the phone company posing as a representative of Skydive Tullahoma, and requested, fraudulently, that the number be transferred to ring at Skyride.

That's pretty pathetic, a couple million dollars vs. a few million lives and countless generations. Nice. You stay classy. How could that be anything other than tongue-in-cheek? It would be a physical impossibility to swing off Hitler's nuts for two reasons. 1. The Russian autopsy of Hitlers burnt remains in 1945 documented that Hitler's "left testicle could not be found either in the scrotum or on the spermatic cord inside the inguinal canal, or in the small pelvis. . . ." He sufferred from monorchidism so at the best you could only swing off of a single Hitler Nut. 2. Given the fact his body was severely burnt and autopsied in 1945, buried and reburied several times, the remaining nut probably wouldn't support the weight of an adult male to swing on. Relax. Smile and be happy. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

I respectfully recommend that you and your friends attend your local Denial Management Course. I feel quite sure there's one near you since Cary has a Skydive Center "Near You".

It would be a physical impossibility to swing off Hitler's nuts for two reasons. 1. The Russian autopsy of Hitlers burnt remains in 1945 documented that Hitler's "left testicle could not be found either in the scrotum or on the spermatic cord inside the inguinal canal, or in the small pelvis. . . ." He sufferred from monorchidism so at the best you could only swing off of a single Hitler Nut. 2.
