Yeah, read this earlier this a.m. It does say he is 'stable' further down the article, but you're never going to be feeling real flash after a stack at 480~kph.

yeah, while most 'experienced' forum users know the ettiquette, it's a shame that some of these same wily forumers go off the deep end if someone (usually new) gets it wrong.

IMO, if you really must, then a simple and gentle prod is sufficient.
