I've been having this same argument with a guy at work and something like that would be great. If you can find one which also talks about racing then we'd be almost on-topic! Thanks, -BC http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5403841/ http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...2004Jul21.html No cyclists. Space reopend on the 14th, the flight taking place on the 19th/20th, depending on what departure point you use. Those are good articles, but it *may* not (emphasizing "may") be as clear-cut as some sources indicate. There's a decent overview on Snopes that has some good sourcing (though some of the articles are sort of hard to find now, and there is a dearth of links in it). The "Phantom Flight" story is a pay article, but it's on a couple other sites in its entirety. http://www.snopes.com/rumors/flight.htm http://www.rense.com/general29/resuc.htm From the Snopes article: -------- "However, records obtained from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) seem to indicate that one flight carrying approximately 46 Saudi citizens may have left the U.S. from New York as early as September 13 , before the general ban on air travel was lifted. The records do not identify who these passengers may have been -- bin Laden relatives, royal family members, or other Saudi nationals. (The "Class of Admission" column in the document lists the departing passengers as a mixture of foreign government officials and their employees and temporary visitors to the U.S. for either business or pleasure." -------- Here's the link to the FOIA: http://www.judicialwatch.org/archive...ndsecurity.pdf -- tanx, Howard So far, so good, so what? remove YOUR SHOES to reply, ok? |

You really don't think Robin Williams can manage to play himself?
