You know I am not sure it's all that. I think he is afraid it might not fly. I have never seen Larry's fly. I think Larry tested some things knowing they were death traps and rather then admit defeat marketed them anyway. Also it's hard to build something with little or no build manual. Chris can vouch for that. I am the type that can figure things out. Doug might not be. Some people should never build things. I have seen plenty examples of that as well.

Desmon- Maybe you are right. Doug just talks with so much enthusiasm, year after year goes by, and nothing happens. That may very well explain his inactions. Too much money down one hole.

We don't have pitfalls in Georgia. When we see one forming, we simply fill it with the overflow garbage from the City of Atlanta. Though these days, it seems more fashionable to simply install a zip-line over it and start charging admission.

...as to those who lack funds for training/parts/gyro stuff:

I always tell them that 6 weeks as a WalMart Greeter, or Convenience Store Cashier in the evenings part-time will probably do the trick and they are ALWAYS hiring. And, when you need a little bit of extra cash, you need only say the magic words:

"Would you like fries with that?"

... and all kidding aside...the folks in the Georgia club are solid gold. I feel lucky even to be among them, let alone hold an "office."

I see Doug has just put his Super-Sky-Cycle 912 engine up for sale.
