Rossi) Newsgroups: rec.skydiving Subject: RE: fish story. Message-ID: Date: 11 May 91 05:38:48 GMT Organization: Carnegie Mellon, Pittsburgh, PA Lines: 15 When a close friend of mine started skydiving, some of the more experienced skydiviers told her that if she punched a cloud, she could roll over and see her body print in the cloud when she came out the bottom. She believed them until they told her that sometimes, if you hit a real dense cloud you would have to ru n along it and jump off to get back in free fall. That's almost as good as the time I convinced some students that I was going to be there pilot. They believed me even though I walked out to the plane with my white cane in hand. They actually started to get in the plane when the real pilot fell apart laughing. Dan Rossi B-#14030 Flare when you hear the crickets.
