His name does not appear to be listed on any of the web search engines I know of. Rather a strange thing for a writer not to be listed anywhere...He doesnt have a listed phone number either. I think its a bogus name. This guy is still dicking around.

Nick or Murray,I've still got a spare flux capacitor from a de Lorean I stole on a movie set a few years back.I figure one of you might want it on a 'Back to the Future' type machine.Unfortunately the 'Michael J Fox' bit is broken......Flying - The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.

**** pit looks roomy. Hmmm, no tail, or rotors, now thats revolutionary. I still think the electric lawnmower inverted and mated to a quality helmet has the most promise. Control column(mower handlebar) can still be used like original bensen. Gimble head ( neck) has full and free movement in all directions. Petrol mower could be used but sometimes are a ***** to start. Electric leads are available in long lengths anyway. For cross country a small generator (the $99 Bunnings ones) could be carried in backpack. Aussie flag on pole can be stuck in rear for rudder control with small cheek movements enough, just like Woz.. I thought of roller skates but I think this is just more un needed weight as most of us can run fast enough. And yes Echo, your it the official NSW test pilot. And Murray the Queensland Rep. Thought of using a Victor but thought the call sign could be confusing. Ken
