Chasing someone around and trying to discredit them on various forums because you have a grudge is childish. It is a shame that you would rather spend your time mocking/discrediting me than digging your nose into the books and learning some basic dynamics, like what the lift formula is and how it works.
PS, Mshunger, What ever you do, don't try and claim someone else (Rick Stowell) disagrees with what is said, especially when his book agrees with the topic at hand. Things like that really make you look...
woah, woah, woah....... I was simply asking if you had gotten your MEI recently. No need to get all nasty. And the Stowell thing on your hand, is kinda....
I gave you the link, and I work with the guy. But no need to bring up other threads. It ws an innocent question. Last I remember, you were working at some college IIRC, and I thought most places like that help you to get all your instructor certs. It was an honest, legit question.
Edit: There is nothing wrong with what you said either. You should know my style by now, I would have pointed it out.
