It might be a hoax, I have no clue, but it's an interesting concept. If you compare them to skipping rocks, they may be able to achieve "walking on water". I've been trying to look up what makes a rock skip, but can't find any good resources of why a random spinning rock skips on the water. Just th...

Wouldn't they slip if they were running on rocks burried in the water, and 20ft out in the water? :? Yes, that's why they don't make it every time! Do you really think a waterproof shoe can displace enough water to propel a 150lb body for 20 - 30 feet? They made a great video, but they can't change...

Gee - I wonder why they all run in the same place, same arc, same max distance...maybe that's where the rocks end? :wink:

I would say the first place to go is SC Simulations. Cannon and Holiday will take very good care of you. 8)

Also check out Viperpits.org. Virtually everything in my pit came from those two sources. There are also other resources listed in the Mother of all stickies thread.

Kill'em and Eat'em

This came from a gent who runs a 2000 acre corn farm up around Barron, Wi. , not far from Oshkosh. He used to fly F-4Es and F-16s for the Guard and participated in the first Gulf War. His story: I went out to plant corn for a bit to finish a field before tomorrow morning and witnessed The Great Batt...

Made a few more improvements here, actually. Set Ventrilo & TrackIR for affinity to only the 2nd core....thus they're not competing with FC2 which likes the first core. Also moved one of my DIMMs over. I was running memory in single channel mode. :oops: That, combined with the city tweak and I'm up...

Thanks for the reply Panther appreciate it :) "Nothing to be done about this one of course but I'm wondering if you guys and gals have somewhat the same issue. Or if it's my testing it at 21 with a kung fu grip of titans that is the main issue. I haven't had any issues, mine is rock solid after ins...

Sunday Christofer can now have solid food and enjoyed a roast beef sandwich today. I talked to him and he sounds soooooo much better. He has his normal voice back and he's so clear and we held a 5 min conversation! I told him I met the Patriots Jet Team yesterday and he was real jazzed about that a...
