It seems today that drivers on the road are completely oblivious to what was driving ettiquette. Traditionally the left lane is for passing, but now it it constantly hogged by "left-lane bandits" going under the speed limit. Even rig drivers whom are traditionally the best drivers on the road (no, I'm not a trucker) have been passing in the left lane and driving in the center lane. Granted with the volume of rude cars entering and exiting the highway it's probably safer there.
Another pieve is when the highway narrows down and people insist on racing up to the point where the lane closes and wants to mege then...and people let them in!
Where did our ethics and courtasies go?

FOR PERFORMANCE DRIVERS ONLY

Do you agree with this analogy?


Fast on Straights = Money + RIGHT FOOT

Fast at Corners = Money + SKILL.

If you agree, why are folks impress about driving fast on straights?

Maybe it's the money or maybe it's the right foot.

I work at a car company that sits right at the end of a big airport runway. So we get all the landing aircraft most of the time, and I have noticed that alot of these large (737, 757, 767,727, etc) are dumping fuel as they are landing. We are the last thing they fly over, and I see liquid/vapor comming from the tips of their wings. I've noticed SouthWest Airlines as the major culprit here...but I want to know why are they doing this, and what can i do about this? I think it is hazardous to work under planes dumping fuel on you. Any advise?

In the Boeing versus Airbus thread of last night, a poster claimed that Carbon didn't melt and was more fire resistant than ally yum yum.
Please show proof of this.
The poster also listed a plethora of Aircraft "Made of Carbon". The truth of that is that the panels, covers, Fin/rudder etc. were carbon. The A400 is the 1st aircraft to have a fully carbon wing spar and it's not in the sky yet.
The fighters and B-2 are so compact in design that the carbon spars are short and stiff. And, the pilot can always pull the "mummy" handle if he gets a fire.
The 787 has a fabricated carbon spar method, but it will still melt to black powder at about 575 deg F.
The fact is, no airline manufacturer has had the nerve to try a full carbon A/c primary structure until now, and I do not believe the industry is ready for it. I am involved in making such A/c structures.

I was at a park having a softball practice, when I hit a foul ball that broke a cars windshield which was parked right next to the softball field. They are trying to tell me I have to pay for their deductable for the new windshield ($250) and then an additional 150 for a new tint of the winshield. Do I need to be paying for it or are they responsible because they parked next to a field I was practicing at?

Chekcing ebay and craigs list ads for a friend, for welding machines, I see on the well known brands like Lincoln, Miller, Hobart that some are "arc welders." What does that mean, exactly? Or "plasma," what's that mean?

And are the lesser known brands just as reliable?

Any help appreciated!
