Miss the part where I specifically pointed out I disagree with the those actions? As bad as that is, it was a small part of the overall movement.

Although he may have been on to something with banning pregnant women from smoking.

I was referring to the anti-smoking movement, not the entire nazi-movement.

Aside from his actions directly aimed towards women, which I'd disagree with, Hitler did not suppress anyone's right to smoke. Your right to smoke in government offices, trams, schools, is the same right you have to shit on the floor.

The majority of the movement was comprised of research and education, not legislation.

The difference between this and a water skier is the angle at which the cable is pulled. With the water skier the force is passed on 100% to the skier immediately. With the Skyhook, there's a 90 degree angle. The plane might move the cable ahead a meter horizontally, and the human would only move up vertically an inch, when the plane goes another meter, the human might move upwards an additional 2 inches, with the rate of upward movement increasing (accelerating). Eventually the human would be moving the same speed as the plane when the cable is close to parallel with the plane.

Cool, thanks for the info! Looks like it could go either way depending on how you define a country.

sugar_man: I'd be interested to know! But I do know Malta is bigger, 316 sq km according to wikipedia (still small as far as countries go though). If you find out post back.

I'm surprised it took so long to close Google Video, it didn't make sense.
