Re: When is TRA expected to go down?

I'd say shortly after TRA schedules another LRDS out of the USA (if they last that long). How 'bout France for 2006, you boneheads? Or perhaps whatever place on Earth that is the most distant from the geographic center of the USA? That way about 6 people could afford to fly there and perhaps someone could smuggle motors in concealed in carry-on luggage. All 6 TRA members stand around, motors in hand, and stare at a launchpad. Launchpad only, the rockets wouldn't fit on the plane.

Canada?! WTF?!

Alas, I am not a TRA member and what I say, write, and think doesn't matter. (A great recruitment strategy, BTW)

So, what you're saying then, is that LDRS should NEVER be held outside of a region from Kansas to South Dakota, and Illinois to Colorado?

Now THERE'S a brilliant viewpoint.

It doesn't matter WHERE you hold it -- somebody has to do some serious travelling. So, I guess you better complain about this year's site in New York, too, as it's a hike for the folks in the southwest. Heck, it's a hike for the people in the southeast!

Too late! ; )

Good catch, wondered how long it would take. (;-)I had to try a new twist.

OK, at $15 an account, all these altopia posters will be spending quite a bit !

now, I'm no Bruce apologist, BUT...

I really don't think that is really Bruce do you IZ ?

yes, they need $15 as that's the cost to access a.b.m.r. via them to post that boxy stuff.

Hobbypoxy Stuff is a good filler, but eposy is too heavy and hard to sand.

Try $6, instead?

"Partial news access, with a maximum transfer speed of 32,000 bps and a single login at a time - $6 per month"

So.

Sounds about like a pranksters idea of a good price... $12-$24 a month to "strike back at the enemies of TRA"...

nope, not if they wish alt. bin access my friend.

I would agree.

I would also like to think those they are strinking are the real (or only) enemies of TRA.

I like TRA. I am an early member.

Ah, I missed the ABMR reference.

But... assuming that Altopia does not permit spoofing, do all the TRA drone accounts have binary access levels? And need the binary-level accounts remain active continuously?

Still: $12 x 4 =$48 for a months service, which raises the cost of the prankss to "noticeable" levels for a young persons disposable income chart and slides it more towards a group effort... or an adult with serious problems.

People have enemies. TRA has problems. Problems that are much worse than enemies.

But can you address the problems with something better than a TRA drones monotonous incantation of "bad Jerry, bad Iz, bad ARSA... be afraid..." ?

But they cannot.

Jerry

In your view, what are these problems?

I refer you to the record of rmr for the past decade.

jerry, He asked "In your view, what are these problems?". He did NOT ask "In RMR's view, what are these problems?".

You seem to imply by your reference to "the past decade", that the ORGs problems coincide with all your problems. It seems to me the real problem might be you. Maybe you should work on cleaning up you own act.

And more importantly, in what way do any of these alleged internal TRA problems relate to the real threat of excessive _government_ regulation of rocketry?

At least the drones can not, so yes, in that you are correct.
