    Cheez-It factory causes radio interference

    I work at the FAA and the following article appeared in an internal newsletter. It relates to RFI (radio frequency interference) which can potentially be a serious issue if it causes problems with air-traffic controlers being able to talk with pilots. It's kinda funny so I thought I would share it. Go to here and click on the July 2003 link and then view the PDF. Go to page 8 for the Cheez-It article.
    "Owners of dogs will have noticed that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they will think you are god. Whereas owners of cats are compelled to realize that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they draw the conclusion that they are gods."
    -Christopher Hitchens

    Definitely amusing.
    The word rap as it applies to music is the result of a peculiar phonological rule which has stripped the word of its initial voiceless velar stop.
