    I have a coworker who used to work on safty critical systems. On every system, she would write a report on what they would have to do to kill someone with it.

    Remember folks, the range danger officer is a very important position. If he ever tells you to do what you are about to do then be sure to: pause; think about what you are about to do; do not do it.

    You should launch it towards the foot of the storm… the Thunderfoot… no, that’s not intense enough… the Thunderf00t.

    This feels almost like a Bob Newhart bit.

      The angered Danger Range Ranger felt like “stranger danger”.

    Is that in reference to the recent Chinese crash?

        I assume they’re reffering to the fact that China dumps spent rocket stages over land and one recently landed in a relatively populated area.
