Should we start a pool on how many pilots violate this TFR over
the weekend? Sunday looks a perfect day for flying over the
cape.

It looks like the only restrictions are sightseeing and messing around
flights in that airspace -- vfr operations into Hyannis are allowed,
as are most other 'going somewhere' flights.

Could this be construed as an anti-press restriction, keeping CNN and
others from getting too close to his sailboat?

By the way, in spite of rumors otherwise, his 50 footer is fully
capable of turning to the right. Unless Sen Kerry is aboard, of
course, in which case it takes three lefts to make a right. Oh, all
right, three port turns to make a starboard.

By the way, since sails often do act like vertical wings generating
lift (thanks to the lift fairies) including sailing comments is still
on topic.

Nope. Sails work by deflecting sea sprites. From personal experience,
I can tell you that a particular class of sprite sprite called sojo
(in Japanese) can be extremely troublesome and can loose you a lot of
sailing races -if you have alcohol on board. Lift faries like to sit
on wings (when they are not flying) and have no interest in vertical
sails at all.

I do not like the man, but would say his privacy should be respected.
If good taste won't keep people away, this minor inconvenience to
pilots is fine. Although, given the tastelessness of many who would
get close, the zone should be defined as anything within range of say
a 50 caliber round.

I agree. Like him or not, (and I can't stand the guy believe me ) his
"position" in the government warrants protection. It's a sad testimony
to aviation if some of those who fly can't make this simple distinction.
We live in difficult times. When and if we reach the point where both
sides of a political equation start wishing each other harm and deride a
Senator's (ANY Senator's) right to personal protection, we have reached
a point fraught with danger for the country.

What I don't see is why some people think he merits airspace
restictions. Is it at likely that a threat to him will be made from
the air? Is he going to have a coastguard escort too? What about other
senators then? To be honest, I think its self promoting
grandstanding..

You are assuming it is a TSR he requested. It's possible the FAA,
knowing how stupid some people are, did it on their own. If he wanted
printer's ink he would not have requested the restriction.

There are 100 senators and 435 representatives in the United States Congress.
If all of them are accorded similar TFRs, these TFRs together would cover an
area about half the size of Louisiana (just over 20,000 square miles). Is
that really what you want?

Why are there no restrictions on road vehicles within a 3-nm radius? And what
about boats?

Can't speak to the specifics of this decision. Don't know why it was
made. If you question it, that is of course your right. Asking questions
of me won't fill in any answers for you.

I think you need to be specific about "position", otherwise I have no idea
which of the absurdly broad or absurdly narrow assertion to disagree with:

The position of him being an elected official? Or the position of being an
ill elected official? Or the position of being an ill elected official with
the last name of Kennedy?

Please understand that flying has absolutely nothing to do with the fact
that a principle inimical to everyone else's freedom is being invoked: that
the rights of private individuals to wander about public airspace are
conditional and subservient to an alleged public servant's fears (or even
mild dislike!)

A statement valid throughout known human history.

I'm sorry, but this isn't an issue involving only a "right to personal
protection." He could secure that right ON HIS OWN if he were willing to
make HIS OWN SACRIFICE TO SECURE IT. This is an issue where THE RIGHTS OF
OTHERS TO ENJOY THE PUBLIC AIRSPACE ARE SACRIFICED so that HE DOESN'T HAVE
TO MAKE ANY SACRIFICES.

One thing about these political exchanges on Usenet is that they are
never rectified. Everyone has an opinion and I assume this one is yours.
I have an absolute 0 interest in arguing a point past an initial
comment and/or changing anyone's mind who disagrees with an off topic
comment such as this one that I make.

Did ya' happen to notice the size and ceiling of the TFR is 5 miles
and 5000'?

Not the 3 miles and 3000' required for security" over stadiums with
100,000 people in them.

It's BS! Plain and simple...

Absolutely no need to provide 'special' protections. I just watched Carl Levin (senator, MI) walking down a parade route
the other day, just walking along waving to everyone. No visible 'special' security anywhere, and no TFR for sure.

Ironically(?), what you state above is similar to my position.

You stated your opinion, so I stated mine. I'm sure you weren't expecting
to change anyone's mind with your post, and I wasn't expecting to
accomplish that either. But if you are like me, then you hold some tiny
expectation that publicly stating your opinion has some subtle influence
somehow - else why would any of us ever bother posting our opinions at all?

No offense meant Jim ; just an observation from years and years of
Usenet experience :-))). I'm sure you know what I mean.

Somebody posts something that involves an issue where just about every
answer down the line will reflect at least SOME kind of agenda based
"feeling". My post will be no different.
What I usually try to do is pass on these political things to begin
with. When I do give in to temptation and post some kind of comment, I
expect I'll get answers ranging from "Attaboy Dud, you tell um" to "Get
a f*****g life you f*****g idiot". :-)
Being as I'm at least trying to enjoy my Usenet experience, I've made a
pact with myself to simply allow anyone who opposes something I say to
pass on in peace :-)
Can't win at these things, so I simply don't try very hard any more to
make a political point.

We may have differing opinions on some things, but in spite of the tone
of my opinionated post, I do normally try to follow the same precepts
that you've just outlined. And as it happens, I regretted my post a few
moments after making it. Post in haste, repent at leisure.

As a side note, I sometimes think I have a vague idea of the way a post
should be written if it hopes to assert some influence, however tiny -
and first and foremost it shouldn't appear confrontational. It should
avoid the appearance of being absolutist. It should attempt to first find
common grounds of agreement with the audience. It should should attempt
to show sympathy for the goals or motivation of the other peson, if
possible. It should keep an even emotional tone. And so on.

My post failed those criteria on all accounts! :-(

I know what you mean. I try to deal with this myself almost every day on
Usenet. I don't always succeed :-))

I have a theory about Usenet. If two people posting with each other
sense an online relationship worth saving , they'll find a way to make
that happen .
If the "relationship" isn't worth saving, either one or both will know
it in short order. :-))

Being a senator isn't nearly as important as being a Kennedy. Don't forget
the efforts made at taxpayer expense to find the last Kennedy who disappeared

There are several assumptions implicit in your "What's that smell"
question that could be very wrong. The first is, the smell would be
different than that which comes from him apartment most of the time,
and the second is his neighbors would know his name is 'Anthony'.

Wouldn't you think the first to miss him would be members of this

Listen up short round. I'll trim my posts as I see fit. Use a killfile
if you don't like seeing them, or post these endless netcop responses as
you wish.
For your information, if I leave a post untrimmed it's because I want it
untrimmed. If I trim it, it's my decision to do that and not yours or
the other netcop who hangs around here, so get lost or stay as you wish.

.....and furthermore short round, I have YET to find a post from you

You find that post and send it to me and I'll revisit you as a posting

I don't know if you're referring to me...but I'm not a netcop; I'm just
someone who thinks that following Usenet etiquette as it's been for the past
couple of decades is a really good idea. Bottom-posting without trimming
wastes bandwidth and makes it difficult to read one's words, as well as
providing ammunition to top-posters.

You haven't "enjoyed" anything junior. You've never once engaged me in
anything useful aviation wise. Anything useful you've gleaned from my
posting on aviation you have gotten lurking me, not in useful dialog.
All you seem capable of doing is posting this endless net cop crap that
nobody in their right mind would take in a positive manner.
"I've told you before....TRIM YOUR POSTS!" Give me a break. If anyone
here needs some growing up, it's people like you.
Lurk or leave as you wish. Since you have not engaged me aviation wise,

I am in total agreement with you on this, and trimming is indeed the
correct way to go. The simple answer to why I don't trim as much as I
should is that I simply forget to do it. A reminder such as you have
posted here will always be accepted by me as something to act on.
Thanks for taking the time to remind me without acting like a two year
old with a tantrum going on about editing posts.
I'll make an effort to remember to trim my responses. If I screw up
again, just remind me. I'm not as sharp remembering to do this as I

I will make the observation that your untrimmed posts often offer more
aviation content than many others who do trim.

No one is obligated to read postings: each of us decides if it's a net
loss or gain. You have not diminished the utility of the newsgroup,
but others surely have. "Boys will be boys" is hardly an excuse for
second grade behavior, especially in a group where superior judgment
should be the standard.

Most of what posters trim is backquoting of others; so you're saying that the
main aviation content is in the backquotes, which isn't terribly flattering.

What an astute reader would have inferred is that I think Dudley's

The general rule is that the authors' of follow up articles should
attempt to include equal or more new text than that which they have
quoted from a previous article.

Also, top-posting is a sign of nubieism, as it breaks the
chronological flow of thought. The two rules go hand-in-hand for
obvious reasons.

I don't disagree about Dudley's contributions in the slightest. It is only
that I wish to see more people take advantage of his expertise that I asked
him to follow longstanding Usenet etiquette.

When does etiquette change. So much has changed in society. It will of

as table manners or wearing hats in front of ladies. Is ettiquete
defined by popular standards of society? Should it flex with time as it has?

I for one will top post if I am not necassarily adding "in line" to
something. But here I am.

I am not offended by top posting, so to me it isn't a breach of
ettiquete. Is anyone truely "offended"?

I must admit that I am no fan of his; but the location suggests a sailing

There is an established formal method of changing Usenet policy via
RFCs.

>wearing hats in front of ladies.

That may be the case where you reside, but it has no bearing on
Usenet.

Usenet conventions are the result of thoughtful debate, and careful
design.

>Is ettiquete defined by popular standards of society?

Usenet netiquette is defined here:
http://www-rohan.sdsu.edu/doc/zen/zen-1.0_toc.html#SEC44

Please also see: http://www-rohan.sdsu.edu/doc/zen/zen-1.0_6.html

>Should it flex with time as it has?

Usenet is made possible through the generosity of those computer
system owners who provide the resources upon which it depends. Usenet
is intended to be an exercise in self-governance. Those Usenet
participants who are not evolved enough to be capable of
self-governance are easily distinguished from responsible netizins.

>I for one will top post if I am not necassarily adding "in line" to
>something.

Top-posting in follow up articles fractures the chronology of the
thoughts expressed in proceeding articles, thus making it exceedingly
difficult for future researchers of the GoogleGroups (nee dejavu)
Usenet archive to follow the message thread.

>But here I am.
>
>I am not offended by top posting, so to me it isn't a breach of

While I truly respect individualism, failure to follow netiquette
conventions will not earn you respect among its participants.

There were my thoughts exactly.
There is no reason for TK to have any more attention than any other
senator.

Here in AZ, McCain is hosting several VIPs who might be VP nominees.
I don't recall seeing any TFR for that particular confab. (Apologies
if I missed it.)
There is too much gaga over Kennedys. (Kennedies?) (Kennedy's?) The

Not really. I'm simply extremely busy and haven't paid as much attention
to proper Usenet protocol as I might have done otherwise. Being busy, I
have a tendency to concentrate more on the content of what I'm saying as
opposed to the protocol on how it's presented.

The answer of course is a compromise. I'm simply reminded to make an
effort toward the more accepted standards concerned with Usenet.

Anyone believing me to be a dottering old man could easily be in for one
hell of a surprise. To anyone thinking of taking that approach with me,
I would respectfully suggest a serious rethinking of that incorrect
position:-)

But Larry, all that was said about the degradation of social ettiquete.
(One could virtually substitute "social" for "usenet".

And yes social ettiquete was definded in books also. Such as sending a
thank you note after attending a dinner party. There was a rule for
everything.
Those who broke the rules were respected less and lost social standing.
If we tried to get by with our knowledge of ettiqute and manners in old
society, we would be social outcasts for sure.

My point is I think we are witnessing a change.
Like it or not.
Times are changing.
Conventions are changing.
We are in a state of change.
20 or 30 years from now I expect things to be very different.

Change is a universal happening. It's constant. (Oxymoron of the day :-)
Change might very well be man's ultimate paradox, as man requires some
form of social structure to exist, but as change progresses onward, what
was socially acceptable yesterday might very well be today's chaos.
It's interesting to watch this happen.
Man seems destined not to be able to cope with the answer.
Rules...rules......rules......some can withstand the test of time while
others become obsolete even as they are written.
Sometimes even the origin of a "rule" or protocol is lost as time
marches on. Yet man will cling to some obscure "rule" long since in need
of major overhaul, trying desperately to maintain what worked yesterday,
fighting in some endless useless conflict with his fellow humans to
convince them that the "rule" MUST be followed.
Perhaps the answer lies in man finally coming to the conclusion that
there is a dichotomy that exists between man's need for social structure
and the simple truth that change exists and dealing with change is
necessary.

In communication, it's content over format. Content can be enhanced by
prudent trimming, of course, but the point is to get the author's idea
into the reader's brain in an understandable way. Except, maybe,
here.

Some confuse "rules" with etiquette/netiquette. Etiquette/Netiquette is
an accepted guideline, not a *requirement*, and it's each person's
decision to follow it or not. Thank God, as *some* etiquette is just
plain silly.

I appreciate prudent trimming -- I hate having to scroll through miles
of already quoted and no longer pertinent >>>>>s to get to the new
stuff, especially when it's only a one-line quip or insult! But I'm with
you re content over format ... and you *do* get to know, in short order,
which authors are worth scrolling through all the superfluous quotes for
and which are not.

My newsgroup reader -- the often put down Google one -- is happy to
list theads by date or by reply. If I'm following a particular sub
topic there's little reason to reread the prior messages. Carrying
forward the earlier text, uncut, might be useful for someone coming in
cold on the subtopic.

Most often, my posts are a reply to someone, and that thread to the
two of us I hope makes sense. Others may eavesdrop as they like.

It's all fun, though, isn't it?

This is true, especially on Usenet. It can get extremely confusing as
threads increase in size on a forum dealing with technical and or
scientific information such as aviation.

This really can get confusing when a reply to a posting involving
something highly technical, especially where a correction is involved,
might require a multiple reference to information posted by separate
individuals running a range of posts involving several different posters
in order for an answer to convey what the author intends.

;-) That, it is.
I meant to mention, in my prior post, that I *do* consider Dudley to be
one of the authors that *is* worth scrolling down to the bottom of a
mile of untrimmed quotes for ... though I'm thankful for a little
editing of the stuff that's no longer pertinent.

I've always maintained proper trimming makes the top / bottom posting
debate almost moot.

This TFR probably was intended to protect the Figawi (I am NOT joking
about the name) race, goes from one of the islands to Hyannis. The
Boston Globe wrote

Kennedy completes Figawi Race
Email|Print|Single Page| Text size – + By David Abel
Globe Staff / May 26, 2008

HYANNIS PORT -- Under pristine skies and with strong gusts, Senator
Edward M. Kennedy this afternoon steered his 50-foot schooner from
Nantucket to a mooring beside his beach-front compound, leading many
of the sailboats in the final leg of the annual Figawi Race.
more stories like this

It took Kennedy only about 2.5 hours to make the journey across
Nantucket Sound in a trip that many thought he wouldn't take after
being diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor last week. He finished
second in his division.

He arrived at the dock in a blue windbreaker and Red Sox cap with
Connecticut Senator Chris Dodd. His wife, Victoria Reggie Kennedy, and
sons Teddy and Patrick at his side.

"It couldn't be a more beautiful day," he said. "We're with friends
and family and it's a great tradition out here. We always enjoy it. I
think we ended up in the front part of the fleet."

-------------------------------------------------------------------
As I wrote before, I don't like this man, but this kind of perq is
pretty minor for someone with his influence. It may be one of the last
times he sales this course.

I don't remember, but was anyone in this newsgroup upset that Senator
John Glenn got to ride in one of the shuttles for some 'scientific'
reason after he left the senate? It was, of course, made up science.

I assume the alternative to not trimming posts is that some may choose
not to read them. What is the big deal?

It's up to the writer to decide how he (or she) chooses to
communicate. It;s up to the reader to decide if it's acceptable.

You need to go chekc out some of the trolllz froups. Mis-spelling is a
common technique used to hook fjukkwits like Maxwell. they're keen to
jump in and shriek about the poaster's pudgy fingers and what not. The
mis-spellings are a convention in themselves to some degree. Poast is
usualy (mis) spelled that way as is froup, lits (list) and a number of
others . Makes it an "in" joke as well.

And why the **** would you ask a Yarpie anything unless it's how to arm
your BMW X5 to the teeth?

Glenn's trip was a "Thank you" from NASA. It was junk science, nothing
seems to have appeared in the professional literature.

Who cares about the cost, it's other people's money.

It made NOTHING clear. scientifically except a useless agency knows
where its funding comes from.

Bertie thinks writing at the third grade level makes him look cool. You
know, like a worldly troll.

It's all part of his sickness, like cross posting everything to obscure
troll groups, and posting replies that make no sense. All the while
insisting he is playing all the people that laugh at him.

Mx has many of the same problems, but expresses them in other ways.

While some may complain about the cost of such a trip for Glenn, I
probably won't. John Glenn is nearly unique in his background. But
other than some tax money, his trip affected no one.
Ted Kennedy is one of many hundreds of Senators past and present. A
TFR affects many people, mostly in a negative vein. He does not
warrant that as a senator. If he did, so do the other senators. And
if we had a TFR for all of them, we could pretty much shut the country
down.

Giving an elderly astronaut-hero-senator a free ride on the shuttle (which,
after all, has the capacity to carry him at no extra charge) is a far cry
from denying all pilots the right to overfly a dying politician sitting on
his yacht. There is no moral equivalence in the two examples.

The "made up science" was a study of the effect of weightlessness on the
elderly. It was stated at the time that Glenn was chosen because data
during the shuttle flight could be compared to data collected during his
Mercury flight in 1962. By that reasoning Alan Shepard or Wally Schirra or
Gordon Cooper would have been better choices. Shepard had medical data from
Mercury-Redstone 3 in 1961 and Apollo 14 in 1971 to compare with data
obtained from riding the Shuttle. Schirra had data from Mercury-Atlas 8 in
1962, Gemini 6 in 1965, and Apollo 7 in 1968. Gordon Cooper had data from
Mercury-Atlas 9 in 1963 and Gemini 5 in 1965.

Glenn's shuttle ride was most likely a reward for his role in thwarting the
Senate investigation of the illegal fundraising activities of Bill Clinton
and the Democratic Party.

No extra charge? You are nuts. Go learn about the cost of carrying each
pound into orbit.

I strongly suspect the price/kg into orbit is calculated as total cost
of mission divided by payload, to give you the launch price.

If the launch vehicle is going *anyway*, the incremental cost of putting
John Glenn in there is probably a fraction of the per kg. cost that is
stated as the Shuttle price/kg launched into low Earth orbit.
