Saturday - Lower James?

Post by jhartrva »

Anyone running the Lower James on Saturday? I've never made the run, and would like to tag along if anyone is heading out.

There is a group going out at 3:00p on the lower. I have not paddled with you. If you are capeable and have a roll you may join the party. We already have two persons making first descents.

Chance of thunder showers on Saturday, we will make a game time decision if there is lighting. Maybe the whether man is wrong.

I hope there's lighting. I don't see well in the dark. Need more carrots.

Doesn’t matter whether the weather is good or bad.

I don’t know if it would be fun if you’re hit with 1.21 gigawatts!!

In order to travel through time, the vehicle integrated with the flux capacitor needs to be travelling at 88 mph (141.6 km/h), and requires 1.21 gigawatts of power (1,210,000,000 watts), originally supplied by a plutonium-powered nuclear reactor. However, for the time machine's return trip (from 1955 back to 1985), plutonium was not available, so a lightning rod was connected directly to the flux capacitor and was used while the vehicle sustained 88 mph. Plutonium was used once again for a trip forward in time at least 30 years, and at some point thereafter the plutonium reactor was replaced by a "Mr. Fusion" home energy generator from the future that was fueled by extracting hydrogen atoms from garbage.

Sorry Karl, but since Julie started it by picking on you I couldn't resist. Perhaps the weatherman's title should be changed to the whether or not man.

Yous'all have fun.
