Old or Bold11/25/2003 10:31 PM Britt Blaser: "Every warrior knows that perfect safety is a fool's
paradise. The premise of the current war on terror is that we can
entertain our way out of the terrorist threat. It's entertainment to
feel an illusory omnipotence that will hunt down every evil-doer and
infidela kind of adolescent road rage, really. The old heads in your
squadron know to protect such greenhorns from their enthusiasms, at
least until they learn or die. "There are old pilots and bold pilots.
There are no old, bold pilots."...

How Many Texts Could a Texter to Text if a Texter Had Text to Text
"A 23-year-old Singaporean woman appears to have set a world record
for sending text messages over a cellphone, underlining Asia's growing
obsession with cellplhone technology.
Kimberly Yeo thumbed 26
words in 43.24 seconds into her phone, beating a world record of 67
seconds for the same words set by a Briton in September 2003, said
Singapore's dominant telephone carrier, Singapore Telecommunications
(SingTel), on Monday.
Cellphones are an ubiquitous accessory in
technology-savvy Singapore where more than four out of five people own
a handset, giving the wealthy city-state one of the world's highest
cellphone penetration rates.
At a contest in front of a department store on Sunday, Yeo was
among 125 people timed by SingTel and a panel of independent officials
to see how fast they could type the following 160-character message:
'The razor-toothed piranhas of the genera Serrasalmus and Pygocentrus
are the most ferocious freshwater fish in the world. In reality they
seldom attack a human.'...
Yeo, who won a S$17 500 (about R64 000) in cash for her
nimble thumbs, said she sends out about an average of 1 500 text
messages a month to friends and family." [iol, via textuall
