Hi William,

Alternatively:

"Nice game, but how do I drop the bomb?"

I've Googled, but I can't even find TFM, otherwise I'd RTFM, so I think
I'll just display my ignorance and crassness by being rude to, and
offending, a prominent member of the flightsim' community, seeing as how
I've been here for fully 5 minutes....

Unusually, I'm wondering whether I should have done a Google search to
see if Alan White crops up?

Nah, I don't know how to do that, and anyway, I'm not going to waste my
time on something as mundane as that....

Regards,
John

Years ago, during the old pre-internet BBS days, I designed a model for a

DOS
"bomber" game in which the goal was to drop a bomb on a target using a

"Norden"
type bombsight. Next to the "bombsight," there was a box with red letters

that
said, "Press B to drop bomb."

You would not believe the number of comments I received saying

essentially:
"Nice game, but how do I drop the bomb?"
