  1. Sorry you didn't read the facts in the attached .pdf. In the last few years there has been a continued push by environmental advocacy groups (and the media) to tie specific events, especially extreme events, such as flooding, hurricanes etc., to large-scale global warming. However, the amount of actual warming in the deep at- mosphere, where these weather events are generated, is not rising at a rapid pace. In fact, observations continue to show considerably less warming than all theoretical global climate models used in AR6 available as of its release in 2021. For example, Figure 26 compares the tropical temperature trends at various altitudes for the models (hypotheses) used in AR6 and actual observations, demonstrating the overheating which characterizes the models (for more details see Christy and McNider 2017, McKitrick and Christy 2020 and Mitchell et al.1 Still love ya Bill!
  2. Climate changes. It always has. That the crisis is caused by, or can be controlled by humans, is a scam. Don't be scammed. Do some serious research, especially non-climate scientists. https://www.nsstc.uah.edu/aosc/climatechangePDF/AlabamaClimatePracticalGuide2.pdf
  3. Friday, Mar 12, 2021, Steve Haley was laid to rest in Tracy, California. This hero of early and current CRW died after a fall in his bathroom. Sad to say good bye. Mike E. CCS-3.
  4. Sad news indeed. Jenny was a wonderful woman, mother and a great skydiver. I've owned and jumped many Zute Sutes, including the one she made me for the 400 way. I will fondly think of Jenny each time I slip on my suit.
  5. Remove the ???'s and put in Lynn Fogelman. The moment I read your reply, it flashed back. Whoa!
  6. Nothing much more fun than leaving last on a 40 way in one DC3. What a fun time.
  7. What a great guy. Ron has a lengthy list of skydiving accomplishments, and a longer list of friends who will miss him. Blue skies brother...
