JaapSuter 0 #1 August 10, 2005 I just came to my attention that somebody we all know and love has received BASE 1024! I know we all got very excited when BASE 1000 got awarded (I wet my pants if I recall correctly) but I do want to point out that in this age of computers the number 1024 is an even bigger milestone. 1024 is the number of bytes that are in one kilobyte. It is also the number of kilobytes in one megabyte and the number of megabytes in a gigabyte. 1024 is 2 to the power of 10. It is the number thousand of the future! Especially on an electronic forum such as this, we should all recognize the important of the binary kilo. Congratulations, you know who you are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are a big part of what BASE means to me, thank you. Faber, you were playing with that blow up doll too. You know what's funny, is Peter chubbed Chad's rig, and he got so rough with the blow up doll that he ripped her head off...I think he likes objects more than people!

Now, you've grown into a solid, heads-up jumper and my favorite jumping partner. Watching you grow in the sport has given me many smiles, many breathtaking views, and just as many breathless horrifying moments waiting for that damn canopy to open on-heading. Congrats on getting your #. I know it is so important to you and you've been looking forward to it. Also, congratulations on resisting the temptation to "chase the object". You got it when it was right, and not a second sooner. Things are better that way, aren't they? I'm looking forward to many more jumps with you, and many happy years to come. I love you cutie! --- "Chad the BASE jumper" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites TVPB 0 #21 August 12, 2005 Kilo BASE. That could be a dangerous thing to call a female.
