  1. You may also consider a wired remote release too. As the wireless will not let you hold the shutter open for extended periods of time. This comes in handy when painting with light, underground or other dark locations, and many other situation where holding the shutter open for several seconds to several minutes without disturbing the camera is required.

  2. Nice car mate. As BA says, those cars can really be tuned.

    The fastest I've ever driven was a bit over 160mph in the little woman's Camaro. Overbored and custom cammed 4 bolt main 350 and high geared rear end. Not a fast off the line car, but more top speed than is healthy. The motor still had some extra rpm left to go, but that's where fin angles ext. would need to be readjusted because we lost the vacuum underneath the car. It floated up and started to feel squirrely so we had to ease off and let the speed drop just a bit. Truly a scary feeling when that happens.

  3. As the topic says, I seem to no longer have the ability to control prop pitch. Does not work with hostas or the assigned keyboard keys. Seems to be happening across all my installs too, so it's not simply that one of the installs is buggered.

    This is driving me crazy. Anyone got any ideas?

  4. Haha, hillareous! We once had a cookie that we called Negerboll: Negro Ball. But that was forbidden too. "They" renamed it to: Chocolate ball, instead. We called it Immigrant Ball. I wonder where we are going?

    And we grew-up calling brazil nuts "nigger-toes" without any negative intent. And I don't recall ever being offended by "crackers" or biscuits as you call them across the pond.
