Homer, m afraid the parachute is not going to work out. As "everyone" knows, one minute after midnight due soley to computer chips not knowing that it is 2000 and not 1900 the laws of aerodynamics will no longer apply. This being a well known fact, as determined by poles taken of "what the american people want", you will have insufficient time to deploy your chute due to the incipient stall/spin that is inevitable when all lift is lost. Any questions?"--- ---- I'm afraid it all has to do with parasite drag. Too many of them... If you're familiar with aerodynamics you'll really understand. ---- Oops, almost forgot the fallout shelters in case a silo goes zing or your neighborhood nuclear power plant melts down. Maybe there are a few left over from the cuban missle crisis. Jim
