    Of course I meant 1.200 meter (in Europe thats one thousand two hundred) but in the context only!

    In a real test it will fail at about 10 - 30 meter already, at the trough hulls.
    The whole coffin at maybe 50 - 70 meters.

    Wellmer, when you leave a negative, sign it a least, don't be a coward.

    He meant "leave" I think. He was hit by neg. points.
    But I refilled that.

    I think we are firmly in the "not so desirable" territory!

    :D

    "For us anything that is part of the movement is welcome, and anything that is part of the resistance is "not desireable".
    Therefore there are things that we embrace - and other things that we are not so happy with."

    For all we know, Tom is Cree and can legally take bets.
