What is with the ID and Password Gordon?
That turns me off instantly.

It keeps spammers from flooding us with spam.

Yes and it gives yahoo a lot of profile information on you so
yahoo can sell it to marketing outfits or use it themselves.
Why do they need to know your age, zip code and sex?  Smart
people enter BS anyway. It just becomes really irritating
to go through all the stupid steps.

Spam is no big deal. Imagine how much spam I get.
Much of it is filtered out by earthlink.
The rest is a delete click away from gone forever.
Are yahoo programmers too dumb to do that?

Paul,

I'm not the one making up the rules at Yahoo. I hate all that
registration crap too.

In fact I set up the group as an open group so you don't have to join to
post messages and participate fully. Of course, I encourage people to
join so we can build up our numbers a bit.

Anyway, come on over one and all. Paul, I especially hope you get in on
the debate becasue I need someone to debunk my farfetched ideas...

Regards,

Gordon.


Why don't you and Perry start a newsletter like this one
and let anybody join? Those automated ones are a pain in
the but. Add my email address. I am still interested but
I don't want to devote space to it here.

I would really like to see hard design info on high power
high speed ducted fans. No question low speed ducted fans
work.

This is a channel hover craft I took to France
quite a few years ago. More fun than an E-ride at Disney
land. Note no ducted fans :)
