They are trying to prove it by working backwards to a point in the design and then working forwards again ....... but if they have done the design once, surely if three of the variables have changed they just need to rerun the same calculations using the revised variables .....

A bidding war!!! Take it to eBay, boys!

Hey, on a totally other topic, can anyone explain to me why the US feels it has to frikkin' pay the government of Turkey so it can use its soil for a war? This crap makes my skin crawl. Either Turkey is an ally or they aren't, what's this "Pay Up Front" crapola!!!!

Has US ever done that before? I'm truly disgusted. I heard them talk about this on the news today, and they were describing it as a token.... $15B is a token?????

Sorry, just feeling a little pissed!
