* TYPEO there, should read 3,200, which

  and all others, thus no effect on case.

Geez, I've got to sit closer to the monitor! Well, after
a wide excursion of counters and postings, the original
post stands exactly correct, not even a typeo, I think. :)

If anyone still thinks an object can fall from rest 17,000
feet in 29 seconds, or can figure out how the demolished
airframe in CIA scenario fall that fast, please speak up.

If Galileo's listening, he should want to know...
