Not to belabor this non productive thread, but one
time I had a rather comical exchange on Pat's site a long time ago. I
foolishly believed that his message board was basically the same as psubs
structure so I asked the question about what it is that Ned Land is saying in
the 20,000 Leagues Disney movie right before he gets hit over the head by the
clergyman's son in the beginning of the movie. Somebody on the site was
jonnie on the spot with the answer ! But then Pat flew off the rail
when he realized somebody else had answered the question and then he deleted the
whole exchange.

"Egalitarian" Oh man not another
word I have to look up in the dictionary. ; )'
Ok here we go.
Egalitarian, noun, a person who believes that
all people are equal.
adjective, believing that all people are equal.
Steve, No worries mate, I'm thrilled that your
son liked the bat sub and used it in his school project. I guess I better
start building it so it will be done by the time he's 8 and take him on a
ride. I've always figured that if you put pictures and/or data up on the world
wide web, it more or less belongs to the world. So have fun with it. I feel
like such a rock star. Perhaps you should make him a static diving RC model of
the bat sub. I'll give you the scaled down 2D drawings you would
need.
Sincerely,
Brent

Did
you really use those adjectives? J
One
brilliant aspect of P-subs is that?s it is ?OK? to ask a question if you are
completely ignorant on a topic. Normally such a question is answered with
goodwill and patience. In a nutshell this group is inclusive and
egalitarian, which would explain its growth.
As for
Brent, I also enjoy your energy and ideas! My Son liked the ?Bat-sub? as he
calls so much that he included some of your pics in his year1 (he?s nearly
6) project ?Transport in the future?. Yes you were
credited!
Warm
regards
Steve

I've
not found Brent's interactions on PSUBS to match those described
herein. Brent appears to me to be a person with alot of drive and
energy that sometimes makes goofy comments, but I find them humorous not
annoying. He has offered to provide 3-D imaging numerous times to this
group, and based upon the images I have seen him post publicly it would
seem he's got talent in that arena. In my experience, Brent's
description of Regan is spot-on except that I would add adjectives such as
egotistical, pretentious, and bull-shitter to describe
Regan.
PS...be aware that
the Vulcaneers in the group forward posts about Regan back to
him.
