Don't know whatever happened to the final white paper, but I believe
it's filed in there somewhere along with the one trying to decide if a
fly lands on the ceiling from a half loop or a half slow roll.
Believe it or not, I actually know the answer to this question.


I'm sure you know this, since you are a fly expert g but did you know
that a fly has to jump backwards to take-off?

That is why if you wait for a fly to walk forward, and swat (or catch
it) you have a chance to get it, because he has to stop and shift into
reverse!

So, does the fly do a downwind take-off as normal procedure, or does he
do a downwind-into the wind take-off?

Who's on first? g


You know Jim; you and I HAVE to get a life!!!! :-))
