Yes! I love both farm raised fishes. Florida Lobster doesn't require much more than warm water and food to sustain it..........

Maybe the amount of time to grow a 2-3 lb lobster is a problem as well, and the amount of space? I haven't seen live crawdads for sale in a long time, I used to buy pounds of them and of maryland blue crabs, wonder what happened to that?

I googled lobster farming, it occurs but they need more breakthroughs, the larval stage is hard to collect, and they don't have enough info about it, but they are making them in Australia in one year.

Such uninformed hatred at Airbus, they make good airplanes, the 318,319,320, 330 and 340 are great, economical and safe.

I didn't say the were not good planes. I was just pointing out that it was the A-320 that crashed on a demonstration flight full of passengers. Do you think they'd have the first demonstration flight full of passengers at the Paris Airshow next year?

Plus they are cannibalistic. Of course considering how good lobster is, if I were a lobster I might be a cannibal too.

Hey, did you see the new Thai livery? Much better than the old, but still not that great.

I like the tail but there's too much white, but then I've always been a Braniff fan. Is that one of the former United 747s you told me about?

Not sure, Thai picked up a few of them. I usually don't fly them, they cost too much, and for internal flights, nothing beats Bangkok Air. I got on one of their new A320's, very nice service! For transpacific, I fly EVA, good, inexpensive and good service and lounges.

Brannif #1 is the best, especially the pumpkin! Air Canada has a good new livery, but I loved Canadian's with the big goose!

I wasn't ripping on you, I was responding to the guy talking about the A300!

It looks like the A380 will be at the Paris Air Show on static this year, but not doing a flying demo. There are rumours that they are having a few problems with engines and that is why the first flight has been delayed.

I got to fly on one of the 747-123 that Braniff leased from American Airlines back to Hawaii in 1978. It just had an orange stripe replacing American's stripes on bare metal rather than the pumpkin livery. The inside was very nicely done. the coach sections had 9 abreast seating rather than the usual 10 so it was much more comfortable than Pan Am's 747-121. The meal service on the Hawaii flight was the same as a Braniff's normal first class meals on their 727s. My parents flew in the first class section on that flight, and their meals were better than many five star restaurants.

I like the upper deck, I rode on our old 747's up there a few times and in coach once on South African up top. Like a private club.
