Now there still are some Yankees who think all Southerners are inbred, stupid, uneducated racists. We encourage that, it means they underestimate us as opponents. If Bush has shown us anything is that there are bubbas on both sides of the Mason Dixon line. It just that southern bubbas are more annoying to northerners than northern bubbas. I imagine the inverse is true as well. Forgetting the rise of the old South for a moment, are you familiar with the new Airbus 380.....the superjumbo? UPS just cancelled their order for the 380 freighter which actually benefits Airbus because they are now able to divert people from the freighter to the passenger plane since UPS was their only order for the freighter. Of course, this latest snafu brings up all the old rumors about whether the 380 is really aerodynamic enough. Obviously, it can fly but there are so many problems with its size and weight that it will never be economical to fly commercially. Have you heard anything? Just curious.
