I dont care about your profession. You quoted my post and mis represented it. You dont get to have a certain authority over a topic because of your alleged profession if you are wrong and you dont need to be an English professor to understand it.

I said planes can land themselves now. You are talking about pilot input in the process. That isnt the point i was making and i asked you, if someone says plays can fly by themselves, does that automatically mean pilot's role in setting it to auto pilot is irrelevant therefore the statement is untrue?

I still dont get what you are driving at exactly.

112. There is an exclusive club called the "Mile High Club".

"Club meetings" are usually held in the rest rooms of aircrafts or in secluded parts on board while the aircraft is airborne. grin

Canada has more lakes than the rest of the world’s countries combined. Approximately 60 percent of the world’s lakes are in Canada. It has estimated 31, 752 documented lakes and there are many unknown small lakes that are estimated to be at least 2 million but no official data about that is available for recognition.

Norway has at least 450,000 fresh water lake. Most were created by glacial erosion.

Finland has about 187,888 lakes.

Lol..abi. If its possible, within one year the lakes will dry up or be polluted. Because some Nigerians will turn the lakes to;

*. Waste dump.

*. Herdsmen will be washing their cattles in the lakes.

*. The lakes will also serve as bathing spot for some people and some churches using candles.

*. Laundry(cloth washing).

*. Car wash.
