We're with you, Nilly. I'll try to fax you some cool water and kosher crackers.

Trudy, your old boss sucks big time. Hope you get the new boss you want and she turns out to be a good boss.

Oh seperate post because a completely unrelated topic. Does anyone know if pilots use written checklists for takeoff? Or do they just rely on memory?

t on edit

I'm assuming they don't rely on Palm Pilots , cause that would really be an awful pun.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

They're written. Relying on memory is frowned upon for that.

Hec, could you try for coffee and some forming-sentences abilities, instead? I'm covered with regards to the water, thanks - that's the most important thing.

Some day I'm going to look back at this and laugh at myself and the whole situation. That some day is not yet today, though.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Absolutely.

In addition to printed checklists, you can also get pre-written lists for your PDA, and you can get versions that integrate with cockpit displays.

But electronics fail, so the printed versions are a must.

Coffee, check. The kosher kind, I presume, without any lobster shells in it, right? As for the sentence forming, I hereby give you rights for the rest of the night to my entire supply of active verbs. They're very useful in the formation of cogent, vivid sentences.

Our wings are not tired.

Caffeine for Nilly! I know you can do it, and do it well.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Note to self: Do not accept coffee from Hec
