Like in South Park... Look, they coming right at me! BLAM! (of course you have to lure them into coming near, or hide/catch them near you). There is no way I would want to look forward to the future of those dogs being around as a small child grows up, playing outdoors.

I hope it gets recorded and put on DVD some time in the future. Did anyone else see the special that was on recently about the making of the Holy Grail? That was really cool. Anyone else have a copy of the The album of the Soundtrack of the Trailer of the Film of Monty Python and the Holy Grail? I have the Executive Version! Among other things, it contains the story of the film so far... Doug and Bob are metropolitan policemen with a difference. Doug likes nothing more than slipping into little cocktail frocks, while Bob bouffants his hair for a night on duty. Still, as they aren't in this film, we won't give their last names. The *Real* Story of the Film So Far: Pucky Reginald Vas Deferens is a nuclear scientist in love with mafia boss Enrico Marx, who is himself married to Conchito Macbeth, a lively belly-dancer at the Belgian disco whose manager, Burly Ivan Crapp, has a naked daughter Janice engaged to J.J. Spinman, New York private detective, employed by the elegant Laura Herron to trace the missing million-pound bidet that Hitler gave to Eva Brown as a bar mitzvah present during a state visit to Crufts, and which remained hidden until a World Cup referee, Horse Jenkenson, was found hanged in a New Jersey tenement with the plans of a Russian secret weapon partially tatooed on his elbow. In Brisbon, the Brain brothers, Nicky and Vance, torture a Mayfair psychologist, who reveals to Dora Brain in a tender and emotional death scene that his hair is not his own. Meanwhile, the Kent Touring Eleven have trapped husky Matilda Tritt on a sticky near Hastings, and she reveals all before enforcing to follow on. Peter Niesewand and Cyril Garfunkel arrive just in time with the Welsh Police, and the Harry Orchestra, and proceed to sing a love song which allows Dr. Indira McNorton *just* enough time to cross the alps into Geneva, where he meets Kon Rapp, a kung fu fanatic and cat lover, who frivilously shoots him, but not before introducing him to lively intelligent Norweigan widow Lanny Krimt, who shows him her inner thighs, where he finds the address of a good French restaurant, and unexpectedly meets Gabriello Machismo, an ex-Korean plastic surgeon whose frankly blond assistant Sally Lesbitt is now the half-brother of a distant cousin of Ray Vorn Ding-ding-a-dong, the Eurovision song, and *owner* of the million-pound bidet given by Hitler to Eva Brown as a bar mitzvah present during a state visit to Crufts, and which remained hidden, etc. etc. etc. This they now do. Meanwhile, Harold and Victor Medway III discover a newfound love for each other in an flashback near Devon, where they meet up with Doug and Bob, the metropolitan policemen who suprisingly turn out to be in this film after all, who kill everyone, and live happily ever after.

To question the motivation of the generals is fair. No need to have military experience. Since when has someone's motives been off limits? Bush's motives are questioned quite often. In fact it goes beyond questioning, his critics claim quite confidently to know exactly what his motives are, as if they can read his mind. These critics feel no need to hold their tongue because of no relevant experience. Kerry made bold claims before congress and during interviews that he knew at the time to not be true.

Given the weather in the UK, you won't be spending all your time at the DZ. There are many worse, even more expensive hobbies you could have. No need for guilt.

Except for the fact that people could learn from your experience, I would rather not have that image of hitting the step like you did brought up again in my mind, that is nasty. You might find someone that can do alterations cheap, a rigger or even a local dry cleaners/dressmaker/seamstress. You are having to fight all that arm fabric with drive from your legs, but you don't want the extra overall drag from your legs either.

And Bill Booth recommends tube stows for locking stows. We can do name dropping back and forth, I think it is more productive to talk about the logic behind the position that you advocate, and to understand there are risks either way.

It looks like there is a significant amount of extra fabric on your arms, body and legs. You should be wearing a tight jumpsuit with no floppiness before using weights. It is easier to control your fallrate if you don't take double grips high up on each other's arms. Also, try spreading your legs a little farther apart, it will give you a little more roll stability (this has nothing to do with fallrate).

not true. they are there for the orderly deployment of lines. just watch, all manufacturers will have something similar in the future. The point I was trying to make is rubber bands break and that is a good thing. I only have 2 locking stows and rarely have one break because I watch them and change before they break. This brings up another point, people more and more do not "know their gear" - shit half of them don't even pack for themselves - no packer is going to change a rubber band unless it is already broken.... rm If you wanted to improve upon the orderly deployment of the lines compared to the std line pouch, it did not have to be done by making every stow a locking stow. The speedbag could have been designed with fewer locking stows, even just 2 locking stows (like a std freebag) but it was not. I would be interested to know how many rubber band locking stows Mr. Sherman would have considered to be a minimum. I would bet that the answer is not 2.

A special application like you describe could be accomodated by the Cypres/Vigil/Argus if the manufacturer is willing to make a special version for you. It would be interesting to know how much money they would want for that special version. A special software version might be all that is required. They already make a military version of the Cypres, so that you can calibrate it while flying in a pressurized plane, etc, but I don't think it would be able to do what you want. I think the thing that would be most scary from a manufacturer's viewpoint would be the possibility of this special version being used by a skydiver. You want it to fire based solely on vertical speed, regardless of altitude, so a standard FXC would not do it for you either. Perhaps if you know the inner workings of an FXC it could be modified to only care about vertical speed, the mfg should be able to confirm this.

Consider that the bands can face a lot of stress as the bag is accelerated off your back. All of the weight of the canopy is bearing against the mouth of the bag, held closed by the stows, and that force is increased because it is accelerated. Depending on how tight your canopy fits into the d-bag, the bands may already be stretched/stressed significantly before the additional stress occurs during deployment. I've seen many brand new bands start to crack the very first time they are used. If you're getting many jumps from your inner locking stows, then your canopy fits easily into the bag, and this is obviously much less of a problem. I only use tube stows for the inner 2 locking stows. For a typical 4 locking stow bag, the outer 2 stows will not hold the canopy in the bag if the inner 2 stows are broken, sometimes it can't hold the canopy in even if just one of the inner stows is broken. Remember that if one of the inner stows breaks, the other will be subjected to greater stress - more likely to also break. All of this stress/potential to break can occur before line stretch.

It doesn't matter if they're mil-spec or NASA approved or whatever, they break too easily to be used for locking stows, in my opinion. John Sherman of Jump Shack is so unsure of the reliability of rubber bands that he felt it necessary to put a shit load of them on his reserve speed bag design. Why? Because he knows they break too easily, so he designed in multiple redundancy. If they aren't to be trusted individually on your reserve bag for the locking stows, why should you trust them for your main? One locking stow breaking on a main D-bag can easily result in bag dump. Bag locks still happen with mil-spec rubber bands, so I'll gladly take the failure mode trade off, thank you very much John Sherman.

Bush should publicly call for the governors to accept a specific proposal to drastically reduce that variation.

They will also break when you don't want them to, very bad for locking stows to break while the bag is being lifted off your back, exactly when there is the most stress on the bands.

I understand how irritating it is that Fox News is so popular. I acknowledge that they lean to the right, but geez, they also have very notable libs on their discussion panels, such as Mara Liason of NPR (sp?), Juan Williams of NPR...I think Brit Hume's show is really good. I think Tony Snow was much better than Chris Michaels on their Sunday show. Snow was a speech writer for Reagan, I believe.
