Game on :thumbsup:


Sigh, I miss the bump.

When we were kids driving to Toronto, we always looked forward to the bump.

They should have built the bump back into the new bridges.

By the way, that's correct... for bonus points, who is Zurakowski and why is the monument in Barry's Bay?

splck 01-14-2006 03:13 PM

Montmorency Falls, near Quebec City

Charlatan 01-14-2006 03:14 PM

I would say those falls are Chute-Montmorency, near Quebec City

Splck beat me to it... damn.

Lucifer 01-14-2006 03:20 PM

I'm always after bonus points:

Do I get extra bonus points for actually having met Jan in person at an AVRO Arrow comemorative dinner in 1990 which was overwhelmingly well attended.

I also got to meet Dr. James Floyd, head of Engineering at Avro at the time of the Arrow, the designer of the "jetliner" the first jet powered jet aircraft ever built (and flown) in North America.

Avro ended up cutting that one up too. We Canadians never seem to be too good at marketing our discoveries.
