And as rifle bullets are supersonic, mostly you don't. David Niven in his autobiography was quite emphatic: "They go CRACK!" David Niven is correct. But the sound does change a bit depending on the bullets velocity. Presumably the sonic boom after they've missed...

For the record, the point behind "Nuclear Winter" has to do with lots of dust being kicked up into the air, blocking out the sun, right? I never researched the subject, so I dunno. S'why I'm askin' Yes that's it

I thought the alar thing was history. we no longer use it although is was never proven harmful.IIRC Nuclear Winter is still a bone of contention however. I think many scientists still see as a reasonable theory.

My concern would be keeping the Marshall under cover with the addition of extraneous gear. the more gear they have to pack the harder it is to remain non-discript.

I'd note that Branson is looking at using the waste material from our food crops, the stubble, husks and chaff that would usually be thrown away and burned, so I doubt that it would have an effect on the food markets other than giving farmers a new source of income from what currently is a waste product. But the amount of ethanol 'gleaned' from the waste products is even lower that produced from whole grain .

I would also add that we are losing farm ground to development at a growing rate, and it appears as if the seed companies are reaching a limit on increasing farm output. For example the best seed is still only giving us 40 bushels an acre (wheat). That hasn't changed for years. Still all in all, I think that ethanol is the way to go.. I've been giving some thought to investing in a ethanol company or two, but I won't be selling any petroleum stock. edited for clarity/ssr

I would go on #21 even if the first 20 failed. But that's just me

When I started posting I was looking at a hunting BB ran by a fellow from Idaho. This started me thinking about my summers as a youth fishing along the snake river. rufus just seemed to round it out nicely ;D

Or we could just go back to the old way of applying the foam. IIRC, OSHA did not require NASA to change the method of application. Does anyone remember the details?
