Sounds like the weather gets really nasty down there.

You've heard of the ITCV? It's the normal pattern down there.

The Amazon Basin, the Congo, anywhere on the equator really you can count on sever T-storms pretty much everyday.

Congress is banning laptops in the cockpit since they are a distraction.


Here is congress hard at work:

House Minority Leader Lawrence F. Cafero Jr., R-Norwalk, pictured standing, far right, speaks while colleagues Rep. Barbara Lambert, D-Milford and Rep. Jack F. Hennessy, D-Bridgeport, play solitaire Monday night as the House convened to vote on a new budget. (AP). The guy sitting in the row in front of these two... he's on Facebook, and the guy behind Hennessy is checking out the baseball scores.

Zoot, I'm away of how bad our Congress sucks and the bill they are working on. I was throwing a spear at the folks who in another thread were advocating using laptops in the cockpit so they could use Nexrad radar for severe weather avoidance procedures.

But that is a great photo you posted ... very sad.
