    You never heard? They call me "Ken Bunyan" in these parts. Even the Redwoods fear me. In fact, entire forests are "petrified" of me.

    Hi gang sorry I ran off pager went off OH SH%$!!!!! Here's a survival scenerio for ya.

    Tuesday P.M. West side Evansville Indiana. Crowded waterpark/recreation area. Around 6000-7000 people in an area of less than 4 acres. Park office concessions 100 yards from pool,water slide etc. High humidity, temps around 85 degrees. Light breeze out of the south east ( blowing across park,office, concessions and pool area in that order) 2000 gallon (3/4 full) LPG (propane) tank develops a heat/humidity related stress crack loosing around 2-21/2 lbs of gas per minute...................
    WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?????
    (90 % of the crowd are kids under 14)

    Someone at the jamboree had a mini version of the army flashlight. I think that was you, Oldsoldier but I'm not certain. Where did you get that?

    Just read these "statistics....."


    • 29,953 seats are available per day to fly out of Providence, RI connecting to Evansville, IN
    • The largest aircraft operated by Northwest Airlines flying between Providence, RI and Evansville, IN is a 32S with 148 seats.
    • 37 flights per week fly out of Providence, RI connecting to Evansville, IN
    Now figure - there are 37 flights per week "connecting to Evansville", and the largest aircraft holds 148 passengers - that's a maximum of 5,476 seats each week.

    BUT THEY ALSO SAY 29,953 seats are available each day "connecting to Evansville." 29,953 x 7 = 209,671 seats each week.

    Do you see a bit of a discrepancy here? AND THESE GUYS WANT ME TO FLY ON THEIR PLANE???

    I'll start walking in a few minutes. Soldier, do you mind holding up dinner a bit?

    It's Indiana for cryin' out loud. We don't bother countin' stuff. Just say they got a bunch of seats and we're happy.

    Nat King Cole comes to mind...

    Brush yourself off
    Take a deep breath
    Pick yourself up
    And start all over again.
