Re: The falsehoods of Ryan, Tumlinson's and the SOJ

Glad to see that Jim has removed the topic from the forum. Along with his moderator and perhaps even his own posting privileges I suspect. Ryan's irresponsible and unprofessional behavior has not done DUSA any good IMO, and has probably been a factor in the less that normal participation these past ...

Re: Legends team back at it

You should do another episode in that same area. Many outdoor scenes in "Lust For Gold" were shot there, and in one place overlooking the basin, old nails that were used for what was probably a camera platform are still laying around. Save some screenshots from the movie and take them with...

Jeff: I don't know about poles with pegs, but notched poles were often used as ladders, especially in confined places where a wider conventional ladder might not fit. The only way to know if what you have is really old and Peralta, is to go out there and get a close-up look at everything. `Regards:W...

Re: GENERAL DISCUSSION - Anything related to the LDM

Hey Wayne Hope all is well Wayne how many times have you gone deep into the Supers alone not many I would think. First off it is very dangerous and pretty much just not too smart.
