More info | Jul 04, 2012 17:25 | #286 It really was a historic event....and I'm glad I got the chance to see all 20 units together....but as far as a photo event, it was an epic failure. No published schedule, no individual displays....and no up close and personal photo ops. Very poorly organized and thought out. Everyone was expecting the units to be brought out on the turntable one by one so they could be showcased. It never happened. People that know me call me Dan

Sorry it turned out so poorly. Maybe a strongly worded letter to NS might be in order... John

We have 3 fans running and the 5k btu ac running none stop. Now the 2 rooms the ac services combined is 20' x 11'. Our upstairs has 3 fans and a 15k btu window unit, it's just as hot up stairs, our house just doesn't breathe so well.

vipergts831 Has the TF retired?

He becomes the first amputee track athlete in the history of the Olympics. Never give up!  I have been following his story for years now and am glad he his finally getting the chance. He has gone through a lot not just physically but in having to prove the feet he stands on don't give him an advantage. Watching this guy fall at full speed while running shows you how much drive he has. -Omar- Flickr
