Think about that for a second. Believe me, I am not being nitty and picky just because, but top fuel dragsters measure humidity in water grains, and less is more better, all the way around. I will say, cold dry air is better than hot dry air.

VAR solves all problems. Using levers is soooo old school.

For now.

Q: Why is there air? A: There's air to blow up volleyballs and basketballs. Gee, they call me dumb, going around asking why there's air. :rolleyes: |

I think you're looking at fuel combustion, whereas the airlines are talking about lift capacity & wing aerodynamics.

[MENTION=406877]PepeM[/MENTION]. Those Open Pavès are the zhits to ride, but tough to mount. I find myself using two Pedros levers to mount the first bead, and 2-3 Michelins for the second. The unfortunate part of all this is that I have them on my travel bike and it is so much easier to pack sin llantas.

The VAR tire tool. A bead jack type tool that is compact enough to carry while riding.

You're in Arizona now, arguably the most conservative state in the nation. Just saying.
One advantage Arizona does have- please let me know if this is too political to remain in this thread- is they expanded Medicaid. Wyoming refused to because they objected to working in order to provide insurance for someone to "spend all winter on the ski runs and all summer at the beach". Consequently, the hospital was writing off nearly $1 million a month and shortly before we left Wyoming the hospital was in serious financial trouble. |

Chipotle probably won't mind. :innocent:
A few weeks ago, I looked up the Arby's handbook online to see what the dress code was like and the introduction said they were looking for people to join "an extraordinary group of people, people who strive to be 100% present in body, mind, and spirit". Now, even if I didn't think that was a bit much to ask a minimum wage worker to commit to, I know that I have ADD and would therefore constantly disappoint myself and them. Oh. YIL that Starbucks revised their dress code and now not only are facial piercings and visible tattoos okay, you can wear a fedora or a flatcap instead of a baseball type cap. Kind of hipsterish but definitely a look I'd be comfortable in. Save |

Nossir. It makes a difference there too. Why? Because there is more "moisture" and less "air". Less air means less lift.
I shouldn't matter if the pressure is from "air" or "moisture" the wings aren't going to care. The exception is if the moisture condenses and is no long a gas when low pressure areas are formed. You can see this sometimes on airplanes and open wheel racecars when there is a <chemtrail> or condensation trail formed. Usually need quite high humidity for this to be observable. |

Woo hoo, there's a setup problem with the equipment in australia, so I don't have to come in at 3am now! (but probably will need to in a couple of weeks).
