Found this on the net today!! Having just completed Jump School, the young trooper boarded the jump plane and hooked up his Static Line. On the command "GO" he exited the plane and his chute emerged tangled up. He cut it free then pulled the ripcord on his reserve chute and found to his horror that his reserve chute was also tangled up. He prayed as he looked down to the ground below. To his amazement, a ground pounding grunt was coming up toward him with equal velocity. "HEY! YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT PARACHUTES?" he shouted to him as they passed by. The reply: "NO! YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT COLEMAN STOVES?" Gordon
Obviously written by someone who's never seen a 502 in operation. pretty blue flames in 15seconds. AllanD
Allen: Personally I love 'em!! Particularly, the 500's are great stoves!!! It is obvious that the kero/paraffin bunch are lacking in the fortitude department. To reap the benifits of gasoline and the pleasures of using a Coleman one must have at a minimum the willingness to face self immolation and the commitment to constantly keep your life in order knowing any moment may be your last!! But it is worth it to be a Coleman man!!! 8) 8) 8) Gordon
