- jp in wa @1.14: "...There are no water landings where people float until resuced,..." Ummm, hm. Not sure where you've been, but please avoid such broad brush strokes when trying to make a point. Yes, I agree with you in point, but not in execution.

- Sorry Jim-bo, but your hysterical nonsense doesn't make a valid argument. Maybe you are swayed by histrionics that have no basis in fact, but I prefer evidence-based arguments.

- Thanks Dad, but this isn't a movie theater. It isn't your private bedroom, either, where silence and darkness are a requirement. Your "movie theater" remark is nothing but a pointless red herring.
