israel is defending itself against the slew of arabic countries the surround and hate them, and they are also not wantonly harboring terrorists and generally threatening the western world or gasing their own people; so why would israel need invading?

i'm on a perfectly good tracking dive only to catch ice crystals in the face for 3000 ft.

well put, deuce; i can't imagine what my childhood would have been like without my father around...the truly sad aspect is that young people with no guidance sometimes make permanent mistakes before they can learn the life lessons that parents are supposed to teach on their own.

have you ever heard of any problems with a chopped main being held from clearing due to the velcroed slider?

I had the exact same problem with a new CYPRES 2 I bought this year. What I was told by SSK INC. is that some of the displays are sensitive to static electricity and cause them to turn off. When this happens the unit is still on and operational, you can tell because if you press the button the unit will turn off first.
By chance, I live very close to SSK and they swapped it out with a new unit and repacked the reserve for me within 4 days. The new unit works fine.

i'm in search of a product that is designed to hold a collapsed slider down behind the head for descent. does anyone know of such a thing or have a good technique for accomplishing the same goal? thanks.
