00:02 any85226947 and C131 turboprops don't sound like piston engines
00:03 zhanx nope
00:03 zhanx not one bit
00:03 zhanx i might know
00:04 y85226947 would know too, looked *down* at too many flying by the h

00:06 zhanx did a few times
00:06 any85226947 most of the mil in Bham is nat'l guard
00:06 any85226947 then Anniston was active, they shared some of the real mil stuff with them
00:07 any85226947 Bush, Cheney, etc would land out there and chopper into Bham
00:07 any85226947 sometimes
00:08 any85226947 EP3 went over so low it broke a window
00:08 any85226947 i was so pissed, and all their fooling arond the mtns here didn't help when they were deployed to South America, they flew right into a mtnside
00:10 zhanx oh you got to be kidding me, just cause i uninstalled the kernel source it failed
00:11 any85226947 umm, ok
00:12 any85226947 there's a DC3 in Mobile, they won't let me visit inside it, or touch it, i remember flying on them, being in the cockpit during flight
00:14 any85226947 i think if i had money, i'd buy a ticket a week for a round trip on any small connecting flights to anywhere
00:14 any85226947 props vs jets is like tubes vs transistors, sometimes visiting is nice
00:16 any85226947 i go lay down
00:17 y85226947 sleeps the p

20:00 rue_shop3 kat?
20:01 rue_shop3 hmm
20:01 rue_shop3 Tom_itx, you still determined to let the doctor amputate you at C5?
20:03 rue_shop3 Tom_itx, I know your not listening to me, but the problem is on the back(outside) of your spine, if you feel around you should be able to find the 'lump' remember, the doctor can only feel his fingers, YOU can feel the under the skin...
21:08 y26649315 HATES to have cleaned up some steel for welding, and then sweat all ove
21:11 any26649315 some poor sap bid $0.99 on a meter with $9.79 s&h from china (6 weeks shipping) , when you can buy them outright for $8 free s&h inside the usa (6 days shipping)
21:15 y26649315 carefully sets an url on the channel table for everyone to see : http://www.ebay.com/itm/311248337634

21:40 rue_shop3 wow
21:41 rue_shop3 it takes a REALLY mean transistor to linear regulate 30V, 5A
21:44 any26649315 150 watts, yeas
21:45 any26649315 which is why you'd use several smaller ones
21:45 any26649315 150w in a to-3 is loody hot, it may unsolder it's pins
21:46 any26649315 but 5 to-220 mosfets should do it easily , 1amp each
21:47 any26649315 or tip36 or tip147 or etc
21:56 any26649315 new today the commentatatator was talking about a dog, they showed the dog, the commentntatator kept on saying "he", the dog has 8 teats dragging the floor from feeding *her* pups

21:58 any26649315 commercial on tv: animated cow with no teats talking about the milk she has given and how the human adult woman should drink her milk,, the human doesn't suggest a sharing arrangement where the cow drinks the human's milk
