more research went into the answers than the questions :lol:

Bandit won the quiz but didn't get the prize, and she's not very happy about it.

Problem is Wickers, that it's not just the 1 question. The only way of winning the quiz was to know what was in his mind, as distinct from answering the questions.

Apparently (according to my results from Pavel) Torque and Inertia are not dynamic forces acting on a ski binding..... Hmmmm, for example, these peeps would tend to disagree about Torque (in english)...

Then again, these papers date from 1985, so perhaps, Torque and Inertia are no longer with us?

Skiers who read this thread are being misled, if they think that the "answers" are absolutely accurate. Without accurate answers, why bother? :roll:

Ally, I might have won, if my answers had not been those to the questions set IYKWIM )

Well, I think you must be very smart Bandit - what do you do for a living? (Presumably you don't earn your money cleaning toilets like I do).

Actually Wickers, I'm nowhere near sulking :lol: This is about standards and accuracy of data. I do appreciate your efforts to move my attention focus forwards :D

I really don't need a summer hobby BTW, my life is generally a little busy currently, and is expected to stay that way )
