Personally, I could care less. This thread proves that the same things that made the thread on the first HB so virulent are still here. It was fun, but I'm out. You guys take it from here.....<B>
It doesn't get settled because the "it can't fly" crowd what to come up with bullshit that keeps it grounded. No real physics, just new rules that say the friction equals the thrust. PROVE IT!
Like I said, its bench racing at its finest. Ever bench race? Ever win? Those that always claim to win bench races are those that have never actually raced. ANYTHING! EVER! Those are the hardest to beat.
