both of you are nuts. It is like trying to discuss polymer chemistry with acid
heads.

at higher orders of magnitude of hull speeds, say at 10,000x to 100,000x,

1,000,000x hull speed.

that nobody else picked up on this.

I thought it was pretty good, but did't really appreciate it properly.
Thanks.

Are you thinking of opening a discussion with Jax on "hull speed" in the
context
of relativistic speeds? That should be good. Instead of wave making
resistance,
we could have wavicle making!



Jax, I am *so* glad you're back.

It is kind of fun. This is what the internet is *for* dammit!
