In about 1825 scientists stated that a rail coach traveling at 30 MPH would create a vacuum thereby suffocating all passengers. We must take what scientists say lightly when it comes to prediction. The ongoing phrase they use to their own undoing is "with what we know today..." -"it is...- Twitch

Sorry if this gets asked alot...
The great thing is you can wear your fedoras with ANYTHING! I have with jeans and a sweatshirt and still gotten "nice hat" comments. You don't have to be dressed up to wear a hat. You can wear a straw or Panama with a T shirt and shorts a fit right in. :fedora:- Twitch

Los Angeles air raid of 1942
It certainly wasn't part of Operation Fu-Go's incendiary balloons since they didn't commence till November 1944. Also no I-boat (Japanese sub) existed at the time that was able to launch a seaplane. That came later. This story has been de-evolved into the chasm where stories that were once... -
