A lot of us don't use killfiles ... at least not on people, I admit I use a killfile for one group that simply deletes all cross-posts. Besides, neither does OM ... he just spouts on about it, but if you watch, eventually, he can't resist replying to stuff that someone on his "killfile" posted. Yes, that is the fun part. You seem to have an inflated opinion of yourself. That he does - he's just a small-minded person full of hate at people, based on race, colour, creed, sexuality, and if they agree with him or not. Your website sucks and you don't use your real name. I basically think that you are a sheep that tires to act like a wolf. Well, in his defence, it's no secret, and he will tell you himself. OM stands for Omega Man (why I don't know ... perhaps it's part of his superego), and his real name is Bob Mosley ... with one of those Yankee number things on the end, or something. Yankee number things? You mean Roman numerals? Also I note that you killfile those that don't share your political views, unless they are Henry that is. Yes, he does seem to have his tongue rather deep up Henry's ass ... I've always thought that was a little odd ... Yes, you noticed it too? Yeah well, maybe his hatred for others will create like-minded allies? Eric Nick |

On Thu, 16 Nov 2006 22:38:56 +0100, in a place far, far away, Jochem
Huhmann made the phosphor on my monitor glow in such a way as to indicate that: Oh, come on; Mook can come up with some incredibly strange fun ideas. And killfiling him is absolutely pointless, because he only posts very rarely. He also has no habit to engage in endless threads. He has in the past. I recall one long one in which he was attempting to convince us that humans are natural vegetarians, and that we should switch to an all-fruit diet, based on dentition. |

Well since he's 110 it's hard to argue against him. |

Believe it or not, a completely agree with you on this one. NASA's manned spacecraft design programs and advanced launch vehicle designs have been a complete screwed-up mess for around a decade or more. It's not that one of the designs has been a flop, it's that _all_ of them have been flops. Pat |

Jochem Huhmann wrote: The idea being that the exhaust gas is always moving subsonicly compared to the gas sheath surrounding it. Might be quite useful some day in the future when you have spacecraft lifting off everywhere daily... Yeah, that's the "disconnected from reality" part. Still, I enjoy his postings usually. There're too many people around here being much too connected to our boring reality anyway. The problem is that the center Mach 5 jet is efficient, but the outer ones suck from a ISP point of view. |

Three weeks, three days, three hours. If there is a problem, you start by
throwing the most promising things into the test facility first. What was first, (water), second (tools), third?????? They didn't have three weeks. If they had, then the Turkey might have made it in the test facility. That is, if they had one. Are you saying it takes more that three weeks to fire up the testing facility? -- Craig Fink Courtesy E-Mail Welcome @ -- On Thu, 16 Nov 2006 17:50:53-0600, Jorge R.

Since when have Turkeys been added to the export-control hoops? Well, I
guess you could be right????? -- Craig Fink Courtesy E-Mail Welcome @ -- On Thu, 16 Nov 2006 17:50:53 -0600, Jorge R. Frank wrote: I'm sure you are. But as far as I know, the presentation is unpublished, and I have no intention of jumping through the export-control hoops it would take to publish it. |

Two flight ago, what Mach number did the gap filler turbulent boundary
layer study start at? Closer to Mach 19 or Mach 25? You have no idea what the failure mode looks like from the outside of the wing. Only the inside of the wing, like what happened to Columbia. I found it interesting that the "Studies" done during Columbia's last Mission didn't include the Chemistry of the Fluid field. How could they have ever expected to study the tinyest of breaches without the additional heat due to burning structure? -- Craig Fink Courtesy E-Mail Welcome @ -- On Thu, 16 Nov 2006 17:50:53-0600, Jorge R. Frank wrote: Irrelevant. What's relevant is that at Mach 25, the entire period of peak heating is in the future. By Mach 19 a great deal of it is in the past and the total heating load from there to the end of the peak heating period will be far less. |
