Facilitating Kevin, Harry?
I am interested in your results with your new camera, John, but not much
else of what you post. It would be useful to see some hi-res photos of a
known object taken with the same lens and under the same conditions but
with the two different cameras.


They would show that pictures from the D70 'pixelize' sooner than those from the
D200 when blown up on the computer.



Yes, I know. That's why I asked. It would be useful to see the original
photos and the blowups to understand what kind of "enlargement" is
necessary for the pixels to show up, as it were.

I don't usually take small areas of my photos and make massive
enlargements out of them.


It's not the 'usual' that gets that treatment.

JimC,

Heehee!! So stupid....and so wrong...

They probably do, but my wife doesn't call me him!

So your mother calls you Kevin but your wife doesn't? I bet she
calls
you
some sweet nickname like 'pothead'.

How was your marijuana crop this year Kevin?

What a childish piece of **** you are. Truly Jim, you are useless as a
human being. Just so you understand, you nasty little poodle of a
human, my mother is dead, and if you keep THAT **** up, next time I'm
in Cleveland, I'll look you up no matter what little pussy excuse
you'll come up with. You are nothing short of a lying, no good, piece
of ****. You whine like a little ****ing baby when someone mentions
your wife, and your lack of a boat, but find it quite acceptable to
bring someone's mother into the fray. **** you. Remember this if I
ever
bring your wife into a conversation, okay, asshole? Don't whine when
someone does that, got it? What a spineless little asshole you are.
Just a childish little **** head. Is your wife the same way?


So how is your karate going? It looks like you missed the class
where the
philosophy of the martial arts was discussed.

Just great, thanks! Apparently the only thing you know about Karate is
what you've seen to TV. Too bad. If you knew anything at all about the
subject, I'd be happy to discuss with you. Now, you are still a low
life piece of crap, get it?


The way you act here shows you are the one who hasn't a clue about the
true philosophy of the martial arts.

So when are you coming over to break my pencil neck and kick my ass
Kevin? Will you be stopping over at NOYB's first to do the same, or
after you are done with me?



I thought you were going to fall off your moped and break your pencil
neck all by yourself...? No?

He'll probably re-organize his 'Search & Destroy' gang to ward off any
threats.

Likewise. I fell off a Lambretta once.

I fell off a CanAM TnT 175cc street legal, dirt bike back on a rough
woods trail. Luckily, it was fairly soft where I landed.

Oh man, i kinda remember those.

Don who actually made them, whose engines?

I think there was a CanAm 250 street bike that had a Rotac (sp)
snowmobile engine with a variable speed pully for a transmission,
wasn't there???

see.. * http://www.motocross.com/vintage/canam/canam.htm *
Bombardier in Quebec manufactured them...and I believe my model had an
Austrian Rotax engine.
My bike (1979 model) was in almost new shape when I had it...the only
problem was a broken kick stand so I didn't fiddle with motor or engine
before I sold it to my nephew.

Ah thats right!

Bombadier even had a motorcycle under their own house name.

I wonder if this Bombadier also now owns OMC?

Years ago, I got to ride a Rokon automatic *two-wheel* drive motorcycle,
big ass knobbies front and back, and a quite high center of gravity.
Quite awkward to drive, but it would climb over about anything. I didn't
realize they still made one. Looks low slung compared to my memories.
