    I was thinking the same thing. The XNumber singed letter thing is a pretty dull blade and borders on group-think. A bunch of retirees signing something is on par with a warning from you HOA.

    Hi folks, Al and John are in the bungee-jumping business. One day. Al says to John, "You know, we could make a lot of money running our own bungee-jumping service in Mexico." John thinks this is a great idea, so they pool their money and buy new everything they'll need; a tower, an elastic cord, insurance, etc. They travel to Mexico and begin to set up on the square. As they are constructing the tower, a crowd begins to assemble. Slowly, more and more people gather to watch them at work. When they had finished, there was such a crowd they thought it would be a good idea to give a demonstration. So Al jumps. He bounces at the end of the cord, but when he comes back up, John notices that he has a few cuts and scratches. Unfortunately, Joe is not able to catch him, and he falls again, bounces and comes back up again. This time, he is bruised and bleeding. Again John misses him. Al falls again and bounces back up. This time he comes back pretty messed up-he's got a couple of broken bones and is almost unconscious. Luckily, John finally catches him this time and says, "What happened? Was the cord too long?" Barely able to speak, Al gasps, "No, the bungee cord was fine, it was the crowd.... What the hell is a Piñata?" Jerry Baumchen

    Very, Very, Very Deregulated. I went well above the IBC when I built my house. Designed it with a safety factor of 1.3. (Both in structural, and Material flame spread types) Metal Framing, Fire treated wood where blocking was needed. Fire resistant wood in the trusses. I also installed a dry sprinkler system. (Not required, but really nice on the insurance) The only thing that I wavered on - was the insulation - I went with 100% sprayed foam insulation to complete the envelope. That was my choice. Rather - those were my choices. Don't take my freedoms or my choices away from me, and we will get along just fine.

    I believe you missed the point. MAYBE - just maybe - we should be let to self govern.

    Actually it can. Pinging the GPS modem more often consumes more battery. The Flysight will have less operational time when pinging the sats at 10 Hz vs 5 Hz, as will any other device.

    I've seen pilot chutes in tow from burble traps on tracking suits with OEM bridles. Let me repeat that, I've seen it occur with tracking suits. Even a student wingsuit has a larger burble than most tracking suits. The single most important thing on the list (assuming you're not jumping some highly loaded elliptical canopy) is a longer bridle. I'd get one ASAP if you want to get into WS. The standard 6' one will work for a bit early on, but the first time you pitch and get nothing, nothing, nothing, more nothing, you're going to piss yourself. It's not a fun experience.
