Basskisser, Do you know how to read? The very first sentence in your definition is: "Whiskey is a barrel-aged distilled spirit made from grain or malt." Schnapps is not barrel-aged, and by your own definition is not a Whiskey. You dumb **** it CONTAINS whiskey...... are you going to comment on the REST of the definitions? We will ignore the fact that the vast majority of Schnapps is made from potatoes. While you can use grain alcohol instead, it still does not qualify as a whiskey, because it is not barrel aged. Keep up the good work, your record is still intact, wrong again. PS It does seem like you learn a lot from Harry, I see you even copy his technique of using sock puppets and having conversations with yourself. "basskisser" wrote in message om... "John Smith" wrote in message news:hERfc.144783$gA5.1759229@attbi_s03... You forgot to look up the definition of schnapps. No, I didn't. Please see below. If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask. No question is too stupid! From this site: http://www.physics.uq.edu.au/people/...iskeymore.html What is whiskey? Whiskey is a barrel-aged distilled spirit made from grain or malt. It differs from other types of grain alcohol in that it absorbs colour and flavour from the barrels during aging, it retains more flavour from the fermented mash by being distilled at a lower proof and being less thoroughly filtered. As a result, it is much more flavoursome than vodka. Unlike gin and akvavit, it doesn't have other flavourings added. And from this website: http://www.webtender.com/db/ingred/125 Schnapps -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Generic name for a flavorful alcoholic beverage made from grain or potato spirits, and flavored with various herbs or fruits. Schnapps can range from sweet, like a liqueur, to dry as an infused vodka. Denmark and Germany produce the majority of schnapps |

Did you ever design a Holiday Inn in Kansas or a bridge in Washington State? Just to show that you don't have a damned clue what you are talking about, the Holiday Inn balcony that collapsed wasn't the fault of the engineers of record. It was a construction change. |

From Engineering.com: "Due to evidence supplied at the Hearings, a number of principals involved lost their engineering licenses, a number of firms went bankrupt, and many expensive legal suits were settled out of court. In November, 1984, Duncan, Gillum, and G.C.E. International, Inc. were found guilty of gross negligence, misconduct, and unprofessional conduct in the practice of engineering. Subsequently, Duncan and Gillum lost their licenses to practice engineering in the State of Missouri (and later, Texas), and G.C.E. had its certificate of authority as an engineering firm revoked." |

Has BassK ever made a post here that was not incorrect?
I loved it when he published link and quotes to prove his point, and they state the exact opposite of what he is argument. Joe" wrote in message ... "basskisser" wrote in message om...

Uh, sorry to burst your bubble, there, stupid person, BUT, Duncan and Gillum were NOT the principal DESIGN engineers. They were acting as owner's representitives. You see, on large scale projects, the design engineer usually does not act as owner's rep., unless it is a design-build project. |

BassK,
When the engineers approved the changes, they approved a new design and were acting in their capacity as an engineer. "basskisser" wrote in message om...

BassK, When the engineers approved the changes, they approved a new design and were acting in their capacity as an engineer. Yes! Thank you for agreeing. When the owner's representitives approved the changes, they certainly did take responsibility. NOT the DESIGN engineers. Two completely different entities. One works directly for the owner, the other is part of the design team. Unless the project is design-build, and it was NOT. |

I guess you did work on those designs, did you get your wrist slapped for
approving the revised plans? "basskisser" wrote in message om... "John Smith" wrote in message news:0nPjc.37257$cF6.1665130@attbi_s04...

You tried to imply that it was contractor mistake, and not an engineering problem. You are wrong again. Engineers approved the illegal change to design and many people died as a result. Had those engineers done their job, nobody would have died. |

Joe,
Please stop trying to have a logical discussion with BassK, it doesn't work, and it is much more fun just mess with him. ; ) Have you noticed that Don and Bass sound similar, I think he is Bass's brother who went AWOL because he was too smart for the army.

Had those engineers done their job, nobody would have died. You're an idiot, plain and simple. You don't understand the workings of a project of that scope any more than you understand simple English. Again, here's a hint: it was NOT a design-build project. There are PLENTY of references, just google them up. Be open minded, and not just look for something that makes your point, but read the facts, be educated, you'll soon see. Now a question for you. Did you or did you not say that you had me blocked in your news reader? What happened, JoeTechnician? |
