I vote to delete the 64 previous pages and start fresh again...with all new arguments and dishings...

Yes, flush it! There are no valuable kernels here - just sh*t. Why archive the whole thing?

This is my metaphor for this room: A little pleasant chit chat mixed in with a whole lot of crap

we all know what happens when you start asking for an opinion ...

Glenn,
when trying to link to youtube. use the utube link box just above the dialog box and only insert the letters or numbers from the youtube link.
for example you posted the whole youtube link with the http://.....

but instead of the url link, click on the utube box and insert just this part of the link CNcuzLE9UJc in between the youtube boxes.

[glenn]

resdiver - thanks - that's what I thought I did - that was the big blank part. When I realized it wasn't working, I added the link below it. I was thinking that it might be a problem with the content, but as usual, it was the nut behind wheel. I fixed the original post (I left the v= part in before the rest of the utube string)
Now I can share my potty humor with pride.

[glenn]

Now I can't stop, but this is very cool/scary

[jessef]

Funny you posted that Glenn!

I have two quads and one Joker heli. All three for AP/AV aerial shooting. Quad programmable technology is growing at an accelerated rate in that field due to demands for UAV in the military world. Scary sh*t when you think of the possibilities down the road.. Skynet comes to most people's minds.

it's been said many times, about many things, but . . . that's 5 mins of my life I will never get back (I couldn't watch the whole thing). Sorry, nxski - but it sure beats the whining we usually find here at the LWC.

And you know those helicopters are freaky and cool, but they don't worry me. It's things like the proposed
"snoop and spy bill" that has me scared.

"it would give police the ability to demand personal customer information, such as names, phone numbers, IP addresses and other data, from Internet Service Providers without a warrant. It would also force those ISPs to install surveillance capability on their networks. With a warrant, police could monitor and collect detailed information on a user's online activity.

This is being floated under the ruse that "Canadians can either stand with the government, or with child pornographers."
Talk about possibilities down the road! Big Bro is watching.

[jessef]

He is always watching. Fortunately Canada is large and populated by wilderness !

Jesse - Cool toys by the way. By the time I was finished being a poor student, I had kids (I was in my 30's because I took the scenic route). Priorities changed, and I never really got to indulge in any expensive gadgets. My kids are way better than gadgets though, so I'm happy.

[jessef]

I use them for filming and SARS assist if I can be deployed in the area.

Had big plans when we were slated to move to whistler but I ended up staying in Van. Priorities shifted.

They look like toys but the heli is 20 lbs loaded and a 5ft diameter rotor span. It's far from a toy. And no, you can't walk into a store and buy them. They are either built to order by a co. or DIY as in my case.

[glenn]

by toys, I meant "toys" - even if they are used for good, and don't have little action figures in a fake cockpit.

[jessef]

I did have a Mr. Incredible PEZ head on there but he flew off about 600 ft high. He was never recovered. Probably went AWOL and shacked up with a band of hoodlum squirrels.

Electric RCs are for noobs.
