Since the list is so very quiet, or maybe no one want s to communicate, 
I thought I would share something from a non LSR guy who is gonna be a 
LSR guy... He is fabbing up some kind of car for the speed range up to 
about 150 or so. But he is deathy afraid of the bail out activity.  I 
know I also had some second thoughts but it was successful anyway.

Has the SCTA or  USFRA ever given thought about codifying the bail out 
procedure?  It is a straight forward simple exercise that would lend 
itself to posting oin the web sites for new prospective participants to 
use.  Then evfery one would be tested to the same set of procedures and 
all would know what to expect. We used to do things liek this when 
getting ready for an ICBM test launch. We had many many sinulated 
countdowns and then we had launch drills where during a sin count they 
would simulate a real possible problem.  SOmeof those were pretty funny 
to be involved with. Like a total loss of all communtications during the 
critical part of the count. Man what a panic..

But I digress.... I would be happy to prepare something for all to throw 
rocks at and to make better and even in html for inclusion on the clubs' 
web sites.

Any thought out there?
