Anybody else seen this on the USR website?

Point.

Spliff... How are you related to JI? There must be a tie, as "spliff" is the slang for a joint or doobie! Maybe you are JI in one of his alternate persona! (I know, you're spiff and not spliff, but I'm not sure you can spell. You seem to have limited use of the shift key as it is!)

I found this page by simply doing a google search on MY OWN NAME and was not looking for more things to make Jerry look like a scumbag. There's enough out there already.

I do not condone using my name and a post taken out of context to support JI... It's as simple as that!

Would you complain to the Trojan company when they quoted your mother saying (on a usenet group) "We used brand XYZ, and because of this, Spliff was born, and I'd ask his daddy why he didn't use a Trojan, but for the life of me, I can't recall his daddy's name or what he looked like. I think he was kind of dim witted, as that got passed on to Spliff. He keeps forgetting the 'l' in his name..."

Precious, Woody, simply precious.

For starters, your shift key use could use a bit of brush up too. Then your lame on Spiff vs. Spliff and Trojans is not just juvenile, it is (given your nym) the most brutal bit of self-inflicted irony I've seen on Usenet in months.

Now, while you did offer a weak disclaimer in your original post, if you can't point to where that page is linked from a past or presently active page, you are really nothing better than the town gossip who spends part of its time peering out from behind its curtains, even more of its time peering through the cracks in other's curtains, and the rest of the time in delightedly quiversome indignation telling its circle of perennially outraged admirers what it's come up with in its last dive into the sewer.

Pots and kettles, motes and beams, &c., &c.

Compliments,

It never ceases to amaze me how a few folks keep trying to shift the blame away from Jerry and his sleazy behavior.

What a jerk! yet another persona, trying to save face for Jerry. What the heck is "(given your nym)"?

There's this little thing called google, which you might have heard of. Doesn't matter if it's directly linked or not, but if it's "on the web" is viewable, and findable with little effort!

Spliffy, or should I say TDKozan, thanks for backing up the JI=scumbag issue once again! I love how you mangled your email address this time.. But the "posting host" says alot!

Climb back into your hole, but please don't mate!

"get out of the way" kind of attitude. My dealings with him have all been ... cryptic. I do have to admit, my patience runs thin... I have seen a number of his reloads fail.

There. Now it's happened to you too.

I see 2 statements of mine on this page too. I stand by both of them. But one is about the Estes E9, and states that the Aerotech E18 reload is a better motor and a better value.

I'm surprised there's no quote from my old friend Steve Piete. I know he really likes his USR kit.

My Mantis I bought for a good price before I read the reviews. O.K. for small models. Launched a Richter Recker on Saturday the 2nd on E9-6's. Had a neat flight with all three burning at once. Landed onfield on one

36" parachute. I did have dual chutes but used Kevlar to connect both parts as I don't want to have to chase after two pieces.. The 36 incher was enough to safely bring it down but now I am going to ditch the second chute and use a 48" jobbie.

When I got back to the "Mantis", the blast deflector was bent sideways a little bit from the three BP motors. Have launched several models less than a 1lb. or slightly over and it works O.K. but the B.D. is rapidly being eroded through by the APCP engines. And yes I am using a standoff. I am wanting to get something better

A 2' or 3' square or round piece of plywood with a 4" long piece of

2x4 glued and screwed to its center works great as a launch pad base. Simply drill a 1/4" hole vertically through the middle of the 2x4, and then drill a 1/2" hole from the back side through just the plywood. Wrap tape around one end of your 6' long 1/4" steel launch rod, and insert it from the bottom of your launch pad base. Drill or punch a 1/4" hole in the bottom of a large tomato can (or coffee can), and drop it, open end down, over the rod to use as a blast deflector. Slide an expended Estes D engine down the rod to serve as a spacer, to lift the rocket off of the blast deflector.

Buy the steel rod at your local metals supplier. Cold rolled steel should run you under $5 (probably closer to $3) for a 6' long piece of

1/4" diameter rod. If you want easier maintenance, and no worry about rust, you could upgrade to stainless steel rod (303,304, or 316) for only a few dollars more.

If you want the base to be much more stable with larger rockets, just use a larger piece of plywood, and upgrade to a piece of 4x4, or two stacked 2x4 pieces, as the rod support. If you took two 18" long pieces of 4x4, and notched them to mate together in an "X", you could screw them to a 4' square piece of 1/2" plywood (half a sheet), and have a pad capable of easily handling 15 or 20 pound rockets using a

1/2" rod, and costing you under $25 to make, including the rod.

Launch pads don't have to be all-metal to be sturdy. Wood works great, and is easy to work with using tools that almost everyone has in their garage already.

Plus, it can be dirt cheap!

The fact is someone had to dig and uncover the page than make it public. It was not at all effective untill someone dug it up and made a big post out of it on the News group.tell me why Ray do people keep dredging this stuff up? because all they can think about is J.I. ? sounds like a kinky love-hate thing doesn't it?

according to sources, the mosaic will be revealed in due time.

We just bust Jerry's nuts to fill time until the mosaic if revealed. Think of it as building idols while Moses was on the mountain and the Mosaic is the 10 Commandments. 8-)

Spliff... Try reading what I said one more time, and give it some time to sink in, because you just can't seem to comprehend what you read!

For my own reasons, I did a goggle search containing only my name. There, towards the top of the list of search results was my name on a USR page. So I looked at it, and posted the link here, as I thought others might be interested to find they were quoted!

It was way less than a minute from when I typed my name into goggle, to viewing a USR webpage were I was quoted (out of context). I sure don't qualify that as "had to dig and uncover the page"!

The "big post" was two sentences long, had a link to the page, and listed 5 names of people I know read RMR, as they may want to take issues with being included in "testimonials" for a vender they may not support.
