Just so this isn't hanging in cyberspace forever, my $5,000 bet for anyone to prove the TWA 800 flight was downed by a U.S. missile is now *off the table*. It's been two-plus weeks since I tossed out the bet and no one took me up on it, so it's now being formally withdrawn. --Brock
A bit worried, now, Brock? Not like we'd have access. I smell a new era / area 51. Smells like lemons. (ie -- it sucks) -Millie, who is not even premenstrual. :) On Mon, 16 Sep 1996, Brock N. Meeks wrote:

I heard through the family grapevine that they have pictures of a Stinger taking out the plane they're analyzing in the Pentagon. There are 220+ Stingers *missing* in the US, so its not like they have to smuggle them in... (That's not proof by any means, but *my* family grapevine has always been very reliable. The cousin who told me this has a Dad who flew as the intelligence officer observer on Bronco flights out of Quang Tri for 18 months, rotating out just before the base was over run in May of '72.) -- According to John Perry Barlow: *What is EFF?* "Jeff Davis is a truly gifted trouble-maker." *email <info@eff.org>* *** O U T L A W S On The E L E C T R O N I C F R O N T I E R **** US Out Of Cyberspace!!!

Does this cousin also have an aunt who lived next door to Joe Montana's babysitter? I might know his father ... Ask your family grapevine about the stinger's op altitude, and the altitute of the TWA when it broke up - I don't have Jane's lying around, but it seems that the TWA plane was a tad bit high for a stinger. - r.w.
