Mayday
« on: October 05, 2006, 07:30:27 pm »
I was recently watching Discovery channel, and they have this show called Mayday that is only aired once in a while.

Anyways, this one was about a hijacked Ethiopian Airlines flight... and a disturbing crash as the 767 ran out of fuel.

I was searching google video, and I found it... This is what happens as a startled tourist films:

The book "Mayday" by Nelson DeMille and Thomas Block is way cooler than a Discovery Channel show about a plane from Ethiopia.  :P  It's about a supersonic jet that accidentally gets with an experimental Navy missile without a warhead, the plane decompresses in the outer atmosphere, and the only people who don't become zombie-like braindead people were in the lavatories where there was still atmosphere (air was being pushed in faster than it was escaping).
I have a programming folder, and I have nothing of value there

Running with Code has a new home!

Our species really annoys me.

There are more episodes than just the Ethiopian Airlines one. That's what makes it more interesting. :)
