MCM Ohana

MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. Several years ago I bought a new Sanyo tv from wal mart it lasted less than 60 day's before it lost picture. It was under 90 days so wal mart refunded the thing, so I Bought a different brand called Element made in South Carolina which started acting odd (screen showing light when it was off) Otherwise it was working fine The Element tv lasted about 6 years ( living room TV) On daily from around 7:30 AM till just after 11 PM . My roommate watches too much TV!!! Replaced it with 24" inch screen Onn TV From Wal Mart. The Tv In my bedroom is a emerson 22 inch that was bought new from Wal Mart back in 2012! If you think Tv lasting 6 years was bad , My replacement HP laptop which wasn't used as much is Junk. The HP that it was supposed to have replaced is the same one I have had since Christmas 2012! BTW the other HP is about 4.75 years old. The hinge started going bad on one side causing the screen casing to pop apart on that side. Then the bottom of the computer developed a big crack . Never dropped or abused! Funny thing is the 12 year old Hp lap top slid out of a carrier case and landed on a brick floor at our Local Mc Donald's ! the only damage it got was a small chip off the plastic case amd a minor crack on the keyboard case area....
  2. Nasa had failures in almost all of it's programs. As have aircraft manufactures though out avational flight. It was a risk then as it is now. Picking on Boeing isn't helping! Please look at the history of failed air craft such as the BOAC Comet. DC 9's had lots of issues, and it's not only American aircraft, but other nations have failures to. I was born just a few weeks after January 26, 1967 The day that claimed the lives of three Apollo astronauts. What is unknown is how many Russian's died in preflight/in flight mishaps Going to space is a roll of the dice as it were! Though the space shuttle had a decent record there was a loss of 14 people in two different accidents. One (Challenger) could have been avoided by delaying launch, and checking boosters ect because of the freezing temps that were in Florida at the time. Columbia is another story, what actually failed were blamed on heat shield tiles, But it could have been a airframe issue after 24 safe Flights. Space is extreme cold re entering earth is extreme heat.
