You calling me a anti-techno old dude?
In Response To: Exactly. That's why I only fly on biplanes. If one wing fails the other kicks in. Technology.... humbug!

() I'm really not. I just want thing built right. Pushing the limits on a experimental go fast cat or playing around with my son's 29'er (which we did this weekend) is just fine but when you sell boats to people to cross oceans in I want them to arrive with the keel still attached and the same number of crew. Does that makes me some anti techno dude stuck in the past?
