Ring laser and fiber optic gyroscopes are lighter, cheaper and more accurate than mechanical gyroscopes, contain no moving parts and are not used on any Canadian Forces aircraft anymore and yet I have to learn about them in great detail. They also do not require time to align and are considerably easier to understand. On the aircraft I am currently flying on, the information from the ring laser gyroscope is fed into the computer and then the computer emulates a mechanical gyroscope which take 10 - 15 minutes to align. Additionally, they will be removed from the course syllabus for the next course. I also have an exam on the operation of them on Friday. I am bitter about this.

somebody post some random facts. did you know babys are born without knee caps? tell you friends.

No they are not.

Google it.

Here it is:

Babies *do* have kneecaps, but they aren't made of bone. They are made of cartilage, and only ossify (turn to bone) between ages 2 and 6. See sources section below. At least now you know why there's so much confusion!!

A far more interesting statistic would be how much sperm a man distributes a second.

A misogynist is a (usually male) hater of women, a misanthropist hates all humans and a female who hates men is a misandreist.

We don't have dollar bills in Canada. We also don't have $2 ones either.

I've never been to a strip club, so I've always been curious -- do we shove a $5 in there EVERY time? That stuff must get expensive.

That question deserves it's own thread. A REALLY good question. Being as I have never been to Canada, let alone a Canadian strip club I wouldn't have a clue.
