Oh. You mean like the personal tour of the Hansen Experimental Physics Labs
I had from the Space Craft Manager of the Gravity Probe B project? The only
way you can get around there is with someone who can open the cypher locks.

Were you there alone, or did you bring your Miss-Universe-Runnerup-
General-Relativity-Expert friend along for a consultation?

Can't anyone with a moderate understanding of Newtonian Physics and
the equations of General Relativity (and the basic Calculus ''skill''
to apply the equations) be classified as an ''expert'' nowadays ? Now
a Ms. Universe RunnerUp General Relativity expert...That's a different
story. (One that I couldn't possibly care less about hearing).

There are quite civilized areas of cyberspace. Usenet isn't one of them by
any stretch. We've got our own quiet ranchero and become linked by invitation
only. Some of us are old EFF hands from the old days. You sure are getting
froggy for a guy who can't ski well enough to earn an American Avalanche
Institute Level I card.

Since when is skiing a requirement for an AAI Level 1 Cert?

Indeed. One of the class prep notes says "...or snowshoes...".

Snow shoe your ass on out there and prove you lack the skiing skills to
attend to your field work any other way. You might try getting a Level I
card before you talk **** about slab dynamics.

It's really unfair of you to expect Jeff to know anything about the
subjects he weighs in on. I mean, really, after all that's transpired,
it's simply unrealistic.

I would suggest you adjust your expectations appropriately.
