  1. Twice, I have visited the Apartheid Museum in Johannesburg. Regardless of his political leanings, one cannot walk through that place without being deeply affected. The photographs, and the paraphernalia are haunting. 
  2. Well, maybe now he will keep his **** in his drawers.   http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/12/11/zimmerman-wont-be-charged-in-alleged-domestic-incident-with-girlfriend/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+foxnews%2Fnational+%28Internal+-+US+Latest+-+Text%29
  3. I learned about them ~1967 passing through Dothan, AL with my dad. Stopped somewhere - envision 7 year old kid - "hmmmm - what's that???"   <STOMP!!!>  "OH S##T!!!!!" 
  4. Actually, the one is the middle is a grenade.         eta - <rats.  pressed "send" before I saw the RPG>
  5.   Doubtful.  Dirt doesn't smoke like that, and that was a pretty nice steam burp.
  6. I bet they taste like (roast) chicken after a trip through the Boeing-Blender -   http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=q2sqFfAaED0
  7.   I do hope you will consider other technical solutions to your problem.
  8. ummmmmm..........OK then. My apologies, but that just scares me. :hiding: Admittedly I don't have my sarcasm / silliness detector tuned up.
  9. Standard practice.  Don't get your hope up.
  10. Kenya is about South Africa as Cuba is Alaska.   He will need a few more stops to stay home.
  11. D%@**it!!!!!!!!!!!   ........oh.....<nevermind>
  12. The easiest way would be by neutron irradiation (neutron generator tube or a Californium source), then looking at the resulting prompt gamma & X-Ray spectrum (pure gold would have no tungsten signature)   There are also testing services that have X-Ray fluorescence units (many are portable).   In my old line of work, I could have done the analysis in minutes.   B.
  13. So ignorant and mistrusting on these.   What is the tangible backing of bitcoin?   A promise of service or product, or an actual tangible of its own value that may be pocketed or otherwise stored? 
  14.     chart here -   http://www.ballisticsbytheinch.com/223rifle.html
  15. 842 is nominally 15% hotter than CFE223.  I normally err on side of caution and reduce 842 by 20% and confirm by chronograph.   It will get hairy on you with little warning.   When I am developing an unknown, I usually not only do the above, I run my initial tests in one of my Thompson Center frames.   Last, pay *close* attention to the guidance given by Dolomite & David on this stuff.    Do not fail to wear eye protection. I have had hot gas in my face out of this stuff, and very flattened primers.
  16. and neither do you....
  17. ok.  full disclosure - the cat is in the litter box    :drama:
  18. Sand storm here.  It's like the Sahara!  (or maybe just Texas).
  19. You need to be parked in front of the gate at 3am to beat the crowd.  Seriously.   I will send a PM.
  20. Soon to be promoted to "papa" Nick.  I can hardly wait for a "Barry Merry Christmas Event  to you !".  I hear Baby Doc is begging to do background vocals.   http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Peace/2013/12/05/Venezuelan-President-Releases-Anti-Capitalist-Christmas-Carol-Praising-Himself  
  21. Thank you. I beat the drum on it so much I was embarassed to bring it up again. .204 Ruger is phenomenal.
  22. Mine is just a rolling barca-lounger, but a buddy of mine installed a hostess, mini-bar, and in-flight movies.  Every once in a while, he would invite me to pull along-side, but mostly I followed in coach.
  23. I am sorry to hear about your losses.
  24. I set by a buddy with that.  I would not wish that on anyone.
  25.   Not only that, but worse.  use to be, the VI "just was", and there by default was only one (and maybe a backup VI).    Nowadays, they line up and actually campaign for the honor. And even shoot each other over it.
