Ahh so you have had six HPs (being the minimum number to get a representative sample)

Well, I've had half a representative sample; does that make it an unrepresentative sample?

Once, 3 HP's at SYD T3 QP was a representative sample.

When I first came across AFF/FT in November '04 there was a Xmas session planned here for Wed 30th November.

I had already booked a connection MEL-xSYD-BNE (as you do), but only had 40 mins betwixt scheduled times; with boarding this cut it down to approx 25 mins.

Cutting a short story shorter, it was great to meet some of the people, but 3 HP's in 25 mins made for quite an cruisy flight to BNE. 8)

Lucky there was no storms that day

This forum is now totally OT :!:

 

[Kiwi Flyer]

OT or not OT?

If the forum is OT does that make the OT thread then OT and thus OT with itself and therefore also OT?

:!: Warning :!: Warning :!:

Critical mass approaching; with OT posts this thread my be about to implode. :shock:

 

[Kiwi Flyer]

So do we need an OT post to counter balance the OT posts in this OT thread?

 

[JohnK]

Now can we please get this thread back OnT.

 

[Kiwi Flyer]

Speaking of ONT, I was tempted to fly ONT-LAX for novelty purpose (and an extra lot of minimum miles) as it added only a couple of dollars over the direct to LAX. I havent yet booked it as I've heard horror stories about misconnecting there and being stranded. Its an expensive taxi ride to get to the next flight if I miss ONT-LAX.

I thought JK was referring to an ontological argument. You know, the sort that propounds the inarguable posit that one cannot doubt the existence of a greater incorporeal divine entity. What springs to mind is the position of René Descartes in the seventeenth century where he defended a series of relevant arguments. For instance, in the Fifth Meditation, Descartes claims to provide a proof demonstrating the existence of God from the idea of a supremely perfect being. Descartes argues that there is no less contradiction in conceiving a supremely perfect being who lacks existence than there is in conceiving a triangle whose interior angles do not sum to 180 degrees. Hence, he supposes, since we do conceive a supremely perfect being — we do have the idea of a supremely perfect being — we must conclude that a supremely perfect being exists.

 

[JohnK]

Can you repeat all that again.

You lost me straight after you said "I thought JK ..."
