What sort of man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.

Legit post, however not likely to get much response, here:
viewtopic.php?f=38&t=1919177
Perhaps there is a site you could link him to.
Thank You

Done. Thanks.
The links to a few OS sites are on the RHS, in the "submit news" box.

You're welcome.

I looked over the "Board index", followed the link that you thoughtfully provided this individual, went to the submit news link, but wasn't able to follow your... :? // :lol: Perhaps you meant "ES" ? Ha.
Good for site EDU, anyhow.
BTW: Where did you learn to 'habla' so well??
:idea: CMPTS are a wonderful thing, huh?

[Edit] P.S. I've even learned to tell my RHS from my LHS after many years of practice!! :lol:

I would have grasped "port & starboard" w/o complication. That "RHS" had me cypherin' for some grandiose acronym. DA! And I know that not only have I seen it before, but it was (then) readily understood. Again: DA. Musta' been a temporary (hopefully) vapor lock, or something.
That "Radio Yachting" sounds like a lot of fun. I have always wanted to get into R/C aircraft. Used to run tethered "Cox" glow-plug engine aircraft 'back in the day'. (Roundy-roundy makes you dizzy-dizzy: maybe that's it ^; after-effects! Ha.)
Built cars and boats using those model engines also. Used to 'way' limit fuel, so the chase to recover was less. :)

Just a tad OT but....it's very late at night here... ;) No-one is around to notice. :)
Our power boat club, used to race "multi-boats" around an "M" course. (Coz they could turn left & right, not like the other types.)
Usual race was for 10 or 15 mins.
We also had tunnel hulls/outboards & hydros that ran a 100 metre course. (Only do RH turns & post the quickest 5 laps.)
For ref; > http://www.ampba.asn.au/
Was good hobby if a tad oily.
