Tangent, not sine.

Hmmm…. sounds like narc for the MLC SCboy, way too much science. what happened to heading outside for a walk in the woods without worrying about how far, how fast, how efficient...
I don’t know, but probably not as speedy as these ice monkeys. Yeah yeah ….I know they’re TRing, but still pretty speedyThe Chief wrote:Whatta ya suppose VAR on these would be....
