ROSTER HAS BEEN REORDERED
Good morning/evening, everybody! Thank you for joining us tonight.
We hope you'll discover something interesting during the time we spend together on the Insomniac Net for the next 90+ minutes.
-- The ever-delightful Shelley [KF7TBA] and just plain old LW [K7LWA] (email K7LWA.INS@gmail.com).
(Please Note: The Net Controller's Answers are always CORRECT (even if they aren't every time!)
Please check out Winsystem's Insomniac Trivia Net page.

On this day in 1937, the German airship Hindenburg explodes as it arrives in Lakehurst, New Jersey.
More than 800 feet long with a range of 8,000 miles, the dirigible was built to be not only the fastest, but also the most luxurious flying vessel of its time.
(Do these claims remind anybody of the RMS Titanic tragedy just 25 years earlier?)
Flying at a speed of 85 miles per hour, the Hindenburg could carry 97 passengers and mail.
The Hindenburg had made 10 successful ocean crossings the year before (1936), including the “Millionaires Flight” -- a 10-1/2 hour cruise over New England on October 9, 1936, for 72 wealthy and influential passengers.
Once again, we offer for your approval, 3 True-or-False ("TorF") questions about the Hindenburg airship.
Please give us your best answer for each of the following 3 TRUE or FALSE questions, by using the (reuseable) answers of "A"=TRUE or "B"=FALSE.
Good Luck and remember, YOU are always a WINNER with us, regardless of your actual answers!
Ok, let's just skip this ride for tonight!
BUT first, a word from our Sponsor:
A. True, or
B. False.
