Mariner, Cece, Bandit - that's why I put 'good' in my reply.
 Anybody who thinks biden is running the show is sadly mistaken. For goodness sakes, he can't even flap his gums coherently. How can anyone expect him to do anything more than that coherently? |

You know that C-17 that had Afghanis trying to hang on the outside of it? Apparently they found a body in the wheel well when it landed in Qatar. Plane is now "impounded" while the AF "investigates." Sure hope they don't try to hang that on the pilots.

A body on one side had a hand and foot impingement in the wheel well on one side. That is the one where we saw the lower part of the body flapping in the wind during flight. The other side they found a hand which had obviously been separated from the body. I heard crew chiefs had been relieved of duty. Hopefully, that is temporary or a lie. There is only so much they could do from inside of the aircraft. |

In the grand scheme of things there isn't much I can do at the world or even national level other than try to keep my eyes and ears open to what is going on. I do what I can at the local level to influence people. ETA - as for putting 'good president', the four presidents we had before joe were all good at something 'presidential'. I can find really no 'presidential' qualities in joe other than he is 6 feet tall.

Humm I will find the article on it but looking you seem to be more accurate than my misguided search.... But along with another poster found this: The average human body needs from 1 to 3 days to become acclimatized to a change in altitude. People who do not spend enough time acclimatizing to a new altitude before progressing further have the highest risk of developing altitude sickness. This is where I might have gotten part of my info: The Death Zone Used to describe high danger altitude on the Mount Everest ascent, the "Death Zone" begins at about 8,000 meters or 26,246 feet 3. At this elevation, unassisted from compressed air or oxygen, severe altitude sickness sets in, debilitating the human body and eventually resulting in death 1. The low density of air at this altitude makes acclimation impossible. Cold temperatures and weather conditions at this altitude also affect the high mortality rate of climbers. I guess I figured death zone actually meant it for everyone. Okay article where I got my data: We pass out when the pressure drops below 57 percent of atmospheric pressure — equivalent to that at an altitude of 15,000 feet (4,572 meters). Climbers can push higher because they gradually acclimate their bodies to the drop in oxygen, but no one survives long without an oxygen tank above 26,000 feet (7925 m). That's about 5 miles (8 kilometers) up. The edge of the known universe lies some 46 billion light-years farther afield. Proves to take all internet stuff with a grain of salt |

This is where I might have gotten part of my info: The Death Zone Used to describe high danger altitude on the Mount Everest ascent, the "Death Zone" begins at about 8,000 meters or 26,246 feet 3. At this elevation, unassisted from compressed air or oxygen, severe altitude sickness sets in, debilitating the human body and eventually resulting in death 1. The low density of air at this altitude makes acclimation impossible. Cold temperatures and weather conditions at this altitude also affect the high mortality rate of climbers. I guess I figured death zone actually meant it for everyone. Dude, angels on a pinhead, not germane to the big picture. |
