When the first shakes happened I started measuring them using a glass off water and levels marked on the desk, earthquakes really are intriguing and measuring the spill give an idea how workings go with, tracing different directions and feeling and comparing , reporting everything to Geonet , great sending info and help.

QUOTE (SeanTK @ Apr 10 2014,1:04 PM) I'll let you know if it says anything about the airshow coverup as you requested in the Tu-144 screenshot thread.

QUOTE (emfrat @ Apr 9 2014,10:15 PM) All said 'Welcome Back' in their own way - I'm intrigued by the irony of posts about your good self being in the 'Off Topic' thread /tongue.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :P border= 0 alt= tongue.gif /> Mike , you no the best thing , Mars was my closest immediate family, he was here and there all the time, outside that was you guys, I can handle my own brain case damage and broken bits but the death of that one cat really almost killed me - you no what i mean.

Here's my favourite - sad to say, no-one marketed Steam Loco Jelly. In 1938 the LNER A4s were faster than many aircraft.

QUOTE (Splitpin @ Apr 9 2014,12:34 PM) It appears to be ink (not printed) i can bring it over some time and you can examine it. That would be great, I'm sure it will be personally signed, easy to check with light.

I did keep the dead ones, but they went in the latest clear-out. Tossing them into the pit at the dump was a weird experience... Another find was a box of SLR cameras, some mine and some belonged to the kids for their school photography classes. For a long time these were the most treasured things I owned, but now I really have no use for a film camera. It does seem a shame, though, as some of these were technological marvels. I...
