  1. Thank You Mr. Pastry. http://www.dvdvideosoft.com
  2. More-so than you. Unfortunately when I bought my Dodge Dakota quad cab in 1999, I didn't get a discount, because it was a first year vehicle.
  3. I wonder if Boeing is going to announce another delay on the first delivery? Forget about BigD. The devaluation of the dollar and the rise of baht, has caused him to reduce travel to 2 times this year.
  4. Scally you should really get a decent internet connection so you don't double post.
  5. IMHO, Boeing really can't cry foul now on subsidies, since they won the tanker contract by default.
  6. You sure you didn't movethe date, just because BigD said he was coming?
  7. Tom, I still hope Northrop reconsiders working with EADS on the KC-45 or KC-330. Maybe it won't help us in California, but neither is Boeing putting a secondary assembly line in South Carolina for 787 production. Boeing cannot be winner by default, because they are the only manufacturer bidding. That's not the REAL American way.
  8. Or bailouts to AIG so they can vacation in lavish resorts.
  9. And that's why Boeing should have offered a choice of GE, P&W, and R&R. instead of the former and latter. Maybe the quality would be more up to snuff, with increased competition.
  10. Doesn't prove shit BigD, or did you forget about AA191 and engines coming of the wing? I want you to answer why the engine fell off the wing
  11. The answer is no. But BigD would also discredit me because I was once an IT worker in Boeing. But I have one up on him. I worked all around the hardware while I was there, so I got to learn about the specs of the products Boeing built. Not to discredit Boeing on their planes, but I feel safer aboard a 747, than a 777, because of the extra 2 power-plants. Comes in real handy if a engine goes out halfway between Taipei, and Midway Island.
  12. That will change soon. They are outsourcing all those jobs to India.
  13. Like I said in my previous post, "they should call it a day, and hang it up."
  14. The Who as Daltry and Townsend should hang it up. Without Moon and Entwhistle it really can't be called "The Who" anymore.
  15. Too bad CEO's like McNerney don't think like you. I can't wait for my annual Boeing Proxy to show up this year. Maybe the stockholders will vote to kick him off the board. I'm making sure I keep my shares, so this way when Boeing becomes really profitable again, I'll see a 1 for 1 stock split. That hasn't happened since 1997. Before Boeing was bought by McD with Boeing's money, Boeing had a stock split on the average of every 5 years. Here is a list of people I know that recently got laid off. Most of these people I worked with when I was there. Their jobs are going to India. ----- For
  16. That's the reason their profits are up. Forget all the filler material you've posted.
  17. Whats even funnier is Boeing thinks 20% fuels savings equates to a 20% savings in operating costs.
  18. Somehow my comment was misinterpreted. I never said anything about people "having to pay people a lot of money." Just the fact of people having jobs to buy goods to drive the USA economy. You won't see me buying a pair of Nike, or Reebok's,(especially since they're made in China now) when I can get Crosstrekkers from Payless Shoe Source for 1/8 the price.
  19. This guy is good at writing fairy tales when it comes to McDonnell Douglas. He doesn't point out it was the DC-10 that hurt them back in the 70s. They could have made a 4 engine commercial jetliner to compete with the 747, but ol Harry Stonecipher, and Mike Sears didn't want to do it. They wanted more defense contracts. Contracts that they couldn't fulfill. Like the ISS. Which Boeing got in the mid 90s, and somehow went back to the Huntington Beach division that fucked it up originally. And then Boeing buys MCD in 1996,(at the urge of the US Government so they didn't have to provide a Chrysle
  20. Thank You, I appreciate the insult. Now explain what happened the past 8 years prior to 1/20/2009
