LOL Oh, come on, FPJ, I'm sure you can do better on the topic of aviation (well, sort of).

You know, balloons just don't hold my interest like planes. I think it's because in a balloon, you're pretty much limited to control in one dimension: you can make it go up, and you can make it go down. For everything else, you're at the mercy of the wind. I respect the fact that they led the way, though, and early balloonists had solid-steel
cojones, without a doubt.
