the test vehicle by the three tether lines and then simply
invert/crop the photo to make it appear that they were holding it
down. On the other hand, assuming that this is for real:
1. Can it be "scaled-up" to lift meaningful payloads?
2. Could a scaled-up vehicle reach LEO?
3. Would the power requirements for the LEO capable vehicle be so
great that the design becomes impractical?
4. Would this work in deep space?

The skeptic in me says that it would have been really easy to suspend
the test vehicle by the three tether lines and then simply
invert/crop the photo to make it appear that they were holding it

Hi,
with attachments. Hereinafter, anyone willing to send files will have to
make them available at the files area of the group.
The message below has a size over 400K and it took some time to download
even in the fast connection that I am using right now. Besides, perhaps due
received it twice. I think that the time to download this using a dial-up
connection would be too long, and that's the justification for my decision.
Yours,
Lucio de Souza Coelho

You made the right decision. Although people just shouldn't send attachments
to mailing lists in the first place.
have a quota. Large attachments tend to fill that quota up.
I was actually thinking about sending a flame about that message but decided I
couldn't be bothered making it look civil.

account on your ISP that has a different name to your real one?
With most ISPs it's trival.

Why would I want to be in your database anyway?

What is the relavance of that? Other then PC's being better then macs.
