Its not you. Biking safety on the road with cars is bad enough, but when you have to run the risk of racing bikes next to other bikes? Also sick... I figured out over the years we still live in ancient times, but we just wear a "modern" mask (mask enabled by borrowing yea here we go again with the debt lol). Ye Olde Testament is right: There's nothing new under the SF Sun (well, bible paraquote) ... I guess over there in the UK case, the OFF Sun.

lol That's like those pre-made ready to mail reply form letters you get back when you write to a corporation or congresspersonation.

You can't "regulate" the system we have. We got away with the appearance, or facade, of regulation in years past because the debt system gave the false appearance of working well. But, the closer you get to debt collapse, the more "regulations" must be abandoned, or it all falls apart. They are doing the *only* thing possible to save our system. Okay, we are screwed if we don't regulate. But we are screwed if we do regulate, because then the real numbers come out, the scam blows up, and we have no alternative because of legal tender laws. We are screwed either way -- just look at the debt. Think of it as a financial scam since 1913, when the US central bank and IRS were created here in USA. When the scam starts to unravel where *everybody* can see it as a fraud, you HAVE to fake the numbers, or it blows up in a way everybody can see. Brain:: Your years are spot on. You know, deep in your bones, what's going down. It wasn't Keynesianism. It was a glorious 30 years spending down that 18 kilotonnes of gold raked in during World War 2, while the rest of the world crawled out of destruction. Then in 1971 we (well, USA) defaulted on the 1944 Bretten Woods Agreement by closing the international gold window. Then, oil-gold swaps and speculation in derivatives kicked the can down the road for another 30 years, and here we are. Can they kick it again? I like to think of carbon credits as the new speculative vehicle to prop up the dollar debt system. The top lobbyists for carbon credit trading are the giants -- Morgan, Sachs, etc... I can visualize a world where carbon credits allow another 100x increase in gambling leverage, while the world including the west descend into a third world style poverty. There are a thousand trillion (one quadrillion) dollars worth of derivatives today. Could carbon credits push that 1000 fold to a thousand quadrillion over the next 30 years? Recall, leverage and debt grows exponentially, while economic growth on the street does not. Anyways its all fascinating stuff.

...200 BILLION dollars at his disposal. Libya's central bank was national, "private" (so to speak) ie...not part of the Bank of International Settlements. I figure for some reason the syndicate needs to put Libya's (Daffy's) 140 or so tonnes of gold back into BIS hands. This was peculiar times 3 piece earlier in the year...28 March 2011... Fascinating indeed.

mac :yikes: Gdaffy = Mussolini Visualize that. That just makes sense. Like, I always "knew" that subconciously, but never knew I knew it, until reading your poast. Is it the hat?

Ooops a jet pranged in China...
Lexx_Luthor replied to Slartibartfast's topic in Military and General Aviation
I don't make jokes about any airplane crash, even if everybody walks away unblemished. However, at work I was talking with a some guys about how strange deaths can happen. Some examples we talked about... It started with a rap about Spain and bullfighting, getting gored then a guy heard some story of marlin or equivalent jumping at a boat and spearing a man. I heard a story of a high speed boat going fast where a manta jumped up out the water and collided with a woman. Totaled her. Then I brought up some aviation stories...That flight from Hawaii where the roof skin (or door, don't recall) came off and sucked out a female flight attendent at 30,000 feet. The Soviet airliner that cracked in two and all died, but one guy in the tail end survived as the tail glided down, fuselage wide open at the break, and it landed perfectly and as it came to a stop it hit a tree and the guy got thrown into the tree. Totaled the man. UGGGH so close. Another (good ending) was a guy in a Zeppelin bombing England and the ship got torched and one guy jumped (no chute) and he fell through a roof and landed on a big bed. Okay he became POW but we can deal with that. Other weird stories too. Oh and the one that I always *see* in my head ever since I read it -- some escort pilot witnessed a crew abandoning a B-24 over Germany, and one guy climbed out on a wing, realized he didn't have his chute on, and tried to get back in, but he slipped off. -
Typhoid:: Exactly. The central banking system owns your wealth and your savings because they own the money -- and rightfully so, since its their sheets of paper, central bank debt notes. You should be free to use, and privately own, any money you wish. Under legal tender law you are not free in this most basic requirement. Ownership! We'll disagree on the stock market and by association the 201k system. At one time, stocks and more importantly bonds may have been a workable long term savings method. Today they seem more like a gambling casino under the roof of the free floating debt based currencies and interest rates. Its not just the banking system. Fraudulent municipal governments violate private ownerwhip through property tax, and taxes on homes will become an ignored national threat (ignored by "official" OWS demands as well -- I like your take on that). "But property taxes are manageable." Perhaps today, but not for the unemployed. As the debt collapse and job losses gather steam, watch these local yahoos ramp property tax rates to compensate for crashing property values.

Wait, sure this isn't one of Gadaffy's doubles? UK:: The economic role they play is disgusting.

Yough Jug, if I recall, Gates and Jobs were both college dropouts...no "economics" or "business" degrees needed there. Jug:: If you pulled yourself up, and engage in economics on the street, you can to talk economics with far more authority than "professional" government and central bank funded economists, because the field has been largely funded, and so corrupted, by the "Government Banking Complex." Worse, one should consider debt, business destroying taxation, and property tax on homes, as long term national security threats, but this seems conveniently ignored by .gov agencies that get funded by massive borrowing. There are counterexamples to the fraudulent economics of the Gov/Bank complex. One is Antal Fekete who escaped from Hungarian communism. TxBill's poast brings a favorite article to mind... TxBill:: portuguese people, Oh man... lves dos Reis who masterminded the 1920s counterfeit scam ~> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alves_dos_Reis. What is interesting, is he hoped to use his profits to gain control of the central bank to thwart investigation. Fekete has a very humorous introduction to his (very long) article THE REVOLT OF QUALITY. Its worth quoting in part here, at The CombatAce. mesmerizing the public ... I emphasized this, because "public" includes real life or Main Street businesses and working men/women, all together. As for the Occupy thing, I don't see anything is really starting here. Men and women, even the Occupiers, are still mesmorized by the "freebies" that the debt system promises.

Widow, ye olde General Smedley Butler, USMC, reserved special words for giant banks and bankers during the World War 1 era in his book War Is A Racket. Read it. If you don't have time, just word search several times for ..."bank".... ----- Typhoid (and Jug), your classical description of free markets does not describe what happens in a bank debt based monetery system, which we have today through our artificial legal tender laws. Legal tender laws are the mortal enemy of free markets, and, legal tender laws were a core requirement of communism from the day of Marx. The "wealth" of independent businesses and labour (men and women), all together, is confiscated through non-liquidating credit -- confiscated by the banking system. But we are required by legal tender law to use the banking system -- ie...even if we use "only cash" (Federal Reserve Notes here in USA) -- we are still using the banking system in our transactions because the legal tender money we are required to use is created by, and is owned by, the banking system. Our paper or e-money we or businesses hold as "wealth" is merely evidence of debt owed by others ... debt owed [by] the society as a whole. That is not holding or accumulating wealth. It is the slow destruction of wealth. Brain (page 1):: Brain gets it. Getting weak governments to create legal tender laws was the basis for the fraud, although it goes far beyond.

Anyone thought of hacking the Buckaneer pit for a Lightning pit?
Lexx_Luthor replied to Slant6's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Stock F-4 pit is great, retextured a bit, changing a few things. What's the communal standard, if any, here for a Lightning pit? ---- Back at THE UBI when the unauthorized FB Sound Mod got releaced, I made up the word Macking ... it totally upset those that wanted to call the modders hackers. Those who wanted to call the hackers modders, didn't seem to mind. That was a key observation there. Interestingly, the word did came into some use after a few weeks. I always poasted the word Mackers instead of either Hackers/Modders, and some others on both sides of the war started using it as well in their poasts. -
meh But, very interesting fast time lapse of the two planes' contrails in the sky. Forgetting the rest of the video, I focus on this alone which is most impressive indeed. Forgetting that its supposed to be just the two fighters, think of it as what the sky looked like from the ground in daylight raids over London or Berlin...or over Siberia 1947 to 1971 in a fantasy campaign, which is why I spend time with The SF. Thanks. There is an AwSim mind behind that time lapse LOVE IT.

The Development of the C Language, by Dennis Ritchie, 1993 ~> http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/dmr/chist.html Good read, but it makes my head hurt bringing back repressed memories.

Delete painted on decals
Lexx_Luthor replied to DarthRevan's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yea spinners I do the same thing *-- copy and paste nearby areas that best match the area I need to cover. Early on I decided to go with decals because with my reflective metal skin settings, painted details including insignia get washed out, while decals keep there deep colours and details. -
Small local bank? Credit union? Those are common suggested alternatives. Karl Denninger's Market Ticker Forum is where you want to be ~> http://tickerforum.org/ Lots or retired military and airline pilots are there as well. Czech it out. Its a superb "lite" -- think "lite sim" -- introduction to what's going down.

Nice. Thanks Jon. ... The Monopoly deception (=TRUE) is very interesting. Get out of jail free indeed hehe ~> http://www.snopes.com/military/monopoly.asp

Been thinking of getting this...1995... Northrop Flying Wings by Pape and Cambell. Anybody have, or had, it? Apparently there's a 49 pilots manual too. Interesting. -
How Government Works(A Little Joke nothing serious)
Lexx_Luthor replied to Skyviper's topic in The Pub
In fact just the opposite. Its the required patriotic and civic duty to always question government, to always assume the worst about government regarding lies, fraud, and corruption, or a nation is destroyed. But be prepared to BACK IT UP, to paraquote Dave on another subject, or get eaten for lunch by free men and women. I like to think of Mr. Garibaldi's little speech to the new board of Edgar's Industries in season 5 Babylon~5. Any organization of men can get like that e~mail... unknown source... -

Georgia On My Mind. . .
Lexx_Luthor replied to Baltika's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mission & Campaign Building Discussion
Does look nice. Flat flats and steep mountains all in one swift map. Love terrains like that. Mountains near the sea, 2nd to last screenshot, are special goodness. Did you have to take any special steps to avoid water running up mountains? That map is best with loaded B-47 and F-86Dora. Collision set to hard.
