Snipped to make a point
...Keep in mind that Apple, an American company, not only offshores the majority of their profits but they also bury quite a few profits in US bonds, which the taxpayers end up paying hundreds of millions in interest on....
Sorry, I just can't let this slide. You are implying that somehow Apple owning US bonds is a bad thing?

"The top holder by far (of US bonds) is U.S. citizens and American entities, such as state and local governments, pension funds, mutual funds, and the Federal Reserve. Together they own the vast majority -- 67.5% -- of the debt."

I suppose that you are happy that China owns over a TRILLION DOLLARS of US Bonds so that US taxpayer money goes to China rather than to a US based company.

Other than my avatar, the first real animated gif I've made.

This was the last landing Sunday, on the 44th anniversary of the Apollo 17 lunar landing. Here is a link to message #46 on my Flying R/C Lunar Module thread, about flying it Sunday including video.

"Picking up a little dust"

Looks great!
 
In another sense.... COLD! At least my hands didn't go numb, have a special "transmitter mitt" that goes over the Tx that I can put my hands inside of while using it to fly. Also keeps the Tx dry.

OK, here's another one, shortly before dark today (video was slowed down). Later the engine light will be set up to only be on when throttled up.

I knew the moon landing was a hoax!
