    I just noticed that you must be a Star Trek fan. Ditto! What, shields were disabled on the box? :smiley:
    I am going to guess that the "Picking-Up Hot Chicks" shield is disabled. :p

    It's proven that some of the brightest minds play/played chess. Do you want a bright mind or a pretty body... or both? I say both! :D

    My wife plays chess and was a hot chick 30 years ago. ;):p

    We played an interesting game of chess one night that only dating chess players could play. Kinda like poker if you get the idea. B)

    @verb, I usually didn't need any help. Almost never. I could tell some stories now. :D

    Tony the player! Chess player! Rock on dude!

    Especially given the "wrong runway choice" imbroglio! :open_mouth:

    I remember when my father was taking flying lessons, many (many) years ago -- his flight instructor once remarked that jet airliners "glide like a brick".

    The story of that 767 is a remarkable one indeed!

    Doc, that's one damn fine story man, Gimili is not very far from my hometown of Winnipeg Manitoba. That landing could not of gone much better than it did. Excellent pilot skills and people of the ground as well.

    Great story! The age old English (Imperial) to Metric conversion error. Happens quite a lot in my biz!
