Yeah, well, I was referring to the kind of 3D flying us "mortal" types are

likely to do!  :-)  I've successfully tached a friend of mine through
kaos', 
tick-tocks, stationary flips,  and other such nonsense.  It was no big
deal. 
As for the guys you're referring to?  I just watch the show from a 
"descreet" distance!  ;-)

Fly Safe,
