The Roundtable / Re: How was your flight?

^^^I actually count the number of rows to the emergency exit front and back from my seat.  I figure if I am evacuating in the dark, upside down, or otherwise disoriented, I can still feel for the seats and count.

That's exactly what they teach at ASTC school. It's all about reference points, and for stuff like helos, apparently most of the crashes end with you being inverted. In fact the dunkers (at least the ones I was in for initial and refresher) are designed to only sink inverted, and you have to do at least a couple of iterations wearing a flight helmet and blinders to train you for finding reference points in the dark.

We already knew that Left-wing women were crazy. It seems like they're bragging about it with this:

That is the way it works. I had a friend that had about 40 acres in alfalfa and he would get a ground squirrel problem. I would go out, set up and get maybe 5-10 over the course of a few hours. He could go out on his tractor and whack a dozen or more in the same time frame. He used a 20 gauge on his tractor.

Make sure the scabbard is nicely padded to absorb shock and vibration loads.  Particularly if you have optics mounted.
