Well, you are almost right.   Things get really confusing for "Triangle" folks when they discover that they were holding the map "upside down" or was it "down side up" maybe it was "side-up down. You see the problem ? :roll:  :roll:

Well Bugtech for me Retreat means (get your butt away from what ever is hitting you) North is up that way South is down that way East is over there and west is over uonder mabey that clears things up :lol:

. . . I know that flying through the triangle is a dangerous affair . . .

OK, let's clear up a thing or two.  Only once in my 35 years of living in "the triangle" has a plane fell from the sky . . . and that time the impact was cushioned by a half rotten roof and a living room couch and the two occupants of the plane walked out the front door.

Now, years ago I did hear of a time a young man from "the triangle" made some wings and had his brother launch him from a perch he had mounted on the back of a 10 speed bike.  He did suffer a few broken bones and some abrasions.  I actually thought that one was an urban ledgen until I figured out that I worked the guy.  I asked him about the experiance once.  He said, "Yeah, that was me."  Then he paused . . . looked off into space for a few seconds . . . glanced back at me the most serious look anyone has ever had and continued . . . "but I've figured out what I did wrong . . ."  :tard:  

Anyway, back to my point . . . most of the time, it's not "unsafe" to fly through "the triangle."  However, if you are going to launch yourself from the back of a 10 speed going 40+ miles per hour down a big hill, don't have your wings turned flat to the wind when you stand up and spread them.  You will only stay airborn long enough to yell out "LOOK! I'M FLYI #$&&# $$&^^&& ^& ^$*# $(%#@^&#&^.     :lol:
