I remember about six years ago sitting in JFK awaiting to board a plane home (3400 km). The Captain happened to sit down beside me. We got talking, and I mentioned that I come from a family of airline pilots, and helped build two home-built aircraft in my youth; both of which were the "Quickie" design by Burt Rutan.
"Oh," says the Captain, "I don't trust composites. That's why I won't fly Airbus aircraft -- they have composite tails. I want metal everywhere."
I wonder if this same Captain is about to retire, or if he's going to limit himself to legacy, short-haul routes?
Amusing...
I'm rewarded with a "-1, Troll" score for my offer.
But 19 people have taken me up on my offer....
Free Google+ invites available now from http://www.mersenne.info/google_plus_invite/
No tricks; no spam. No Facebook...
Rather than spending money getting your own action figure...
Or is our own vanity more important?
Here's a radical thought.

so low ID equals trustworthy?
Doesn't hurt...
Also, the fact the wabbit.com domain has existed since 1995 doesn't hurt either....
Dummy accounts (or, as I call them, "throw-away" addresses) certainly seem to be an option. The invites don't appear to be bound to the sent-to-email address.
So far today 17 people have taken me up on my offer for invites via direct e-mail. If anyone of them see spam which can be contributed to this, please let them post that fact here.
I'm legit -- not a spammer nor e-mail address harvester -- I just loath Facebook, and want to see Google+ reach critical mass ASAP.
Anyone want an invite? Post your e-mail address here, or e-mail gplus@wabbit.com.
If you e-mail me, I promise not to give your e-mail address to any spammers, nor use it myself other than to send the invite.
Certainly better than posting it publicly here!
This was done on an earlier thread, but it's scrolled off the front page, so many might miss it...
Invitations are available again. If anyone would like one, e-mail me at gpluss@wabbit.com, and I'll send you one.
(Note to spammers -- this is a throw-away e-mail address. Feel free to add it to your lists -- it will go straight to spam after a few days.)
(Note to everyone else -- I hate spammers, and promise not to add the sent e-mail address to any lists, nor use them myself.)
OK. You hopefully have one.
You (hopefully) got it.
I wonder how many people here are receiving multiple invites? Sent.
If you have a procedure with 10 parameters, you probably missed some.
