  1. Far as I know, I don't play ksp enough. I still have a 50/50 chance of crashing into my station when I want to refuel and I have around 30 spaceplanes that ran out of fuel. so, I don't post about stuff till I can play half decent, instead of just talking about my mathematical guidance script calculations.

    Woah, when did this thread turn to this?

  2. Also, AMBER alerts make me cry because of the fact a kid is missing!

    Oh god. The first time I heard one of those was when I was in bed, pitch dark, and then suddenly my iPhone, on full volume, BBBBBBEEEEEEEP BEEEEEEEEEPP BBBBBBBEEEP.

    I literally ran out of my room screaming.

    Ever since, I've always remembered to mute my phone at night.

  3. What is EAS?
    Umm I thinks it's an American thing

    Yeah, it's only in America. It interrupts broadcasting systems on all (Depending on the situation) TV stations in the case of say, a tornado warning, civil danger, or in a worse case scenario, a National Emergency.

    But sometimes, they have tests, and it can get... Well... creepy. Look up the EAS experience on youtube and watch any of his videos, and trust me, the tones are creepy, but get your attention.

  4. So, this post will be my 500th. That means I'm halfway to 1K, which is a LOT of posts. I'm glad I've stuck around, from .23-1.0.

    When did you guys reach your 500th post?

  5. Here's the scenario:

    You're up late, around 2 A.M. You are home alone watching horror movies or something. All of a sudden, the screen goes black, and a new screen comes on with that sanity-draining sound:

    EEERRRRRT....EEEERRRRT......ERRRRRT.....

    I'm pretty sure lots of people here have experienced that. And in most cases, well, your sanity goes. But why?

    Discuss here why you think the EAS is sometimes terrifying, even if it's only a test.

  6. Not quite. There were issues with that O2 tank that were missed. The heater thermostat fused in the 'on' position during ground testing and the O2 boiled off much faster than it should have but nobody noticed or they didn't realize the implications.

    The irony is how this thread began to derail before the first page was done.
