Payment on way by e-transfer. For some reason it demanded that I include a security question. I'll PM you the answer. 🍻

The problem is that the people who make up the inner workings of all political parties are dominated by fringe and special interest groups. They're the ones primarily motivated to get involved to that degree. Those of us who form the moderate centre are simply to busy working for a living or...

I look forward to seeing it - but not holding breath too hard. 🍻

That was of course bullshit and everybody but Canada knew it was bullshit. This is why we are now where we are. Irrelevant - unless we make a comeback. 🍻

That's what I'm wondering about too. When I packed everything up for the next to second last move I deboxed all the kits (to save space) and threw the instructions and parts trees into one fully-stuffed, two-cube box. There are things down there that I didn't recognize in my quick scan. I know...

Lord. You made me go down into the lower level to look. The partly finished Tamyia models are a Centurion, a Leo 1, an 88 and a 25 pounder plus about 8 to 10 various "soldier" sets. There's a pile of Airfix and Historex models too. I used to turn the latter into birthday and Christmas gifts...

In peacetime, the safety officer is a junior officer or senior NCO whose job it is to ensure that any round fired lands (and/or ricochets) into a safe impact area. I wartime the same function...

I remember them from my early modeling days. The assembly instruction sheets were always good for a laugh. I always wondered if I could make a full-time career about translating Tamiya English to real English. :giggle: I've still got a few kits from about 4 decades ago in boxes and partly...

Germany very recently passed a law that we could really use. The "Bundeswehrbeschaffungsbeschleunigungsgesetz" or "Bundeswehr Procurement Acceleration Act" sets a number of provisions that speeds up defence procurement including: 🍻

No. That's when we started to work on getting the nuke's that came in 1963. 🍻

9 Div? :unsure:

We're smaller - also walk before you run. We've only been working on this type of stuff for three decades now. AFATDS itself came out 30 years ago and is now running on version 8 or 9 now with AFATDS AXS. I haven't heard of any AI module to speed up decision making in JFM . . . maybe v2.0? I...
