Use rocket for the really large stuff, but the modified airplane /

They already did that. It was the X15



It would be a better investment to put a few spaceward-aimed broadcast
beacons in orbit, and hope that a friendly alien civilization hears their

We have been broadcasting into space for a lot of years. Ever since

I think it's cute how he brags constantly about his "filters," but now
changes his id to try to dodge everyone elses. What's good for the goose,
*ain't* good for the gander. g

Yep. Just think. In some distant galaxy, far away, the residents are
watching the "Beverly Hillbillys".

IIRC, Nikolai Tesla was declared the inventor of the wireless in about 1947,
after study the government. Not Marconi.

That, and the fact that we've been doing what Harry is suggesting for
YEARS! He's just had his head stuck so far up his own ass that he missed
it....

I wrote this the other day right after talking to *** on the phone..
This time he called me, my butt didn't call him. Here is a snip.

By the way, most here have filtered WAFA out as his shtick never really
changes. Funny though he is still talking about me, WAFA. He will never
change..

First, he will mellow and go after one who he knows won't be bothering.
Then he will start talking boats, here and there.
Then he will start being extra nice to Tim, Dick, Tom, and a couple of
others hoping to break the ice.

Then he will start back in with the fourth grade insults and the whole
cycle starts again... He

Thunderbird and eternal-september are a simple and free way to go WAFA
free, you all should try it...

unsnip

It's working for now.. I see he has one or two of you all back working
with him and presumably he is being "nice", but you all know how it
goes.. I have been made aware however that he is still taking shots at
me and using copyrighted pictures and information to slap at me so you
see, it's a cycle with no end.. wasted bandwidth.

Later, gotta' go...

I see you are still short, stupid, and obsessed.
