Pallets in fields

I can clear this up.

Yes, to us current day, somewhat older earthlings, Paladin was a US Western gun for hire. As we watched our black and white broadcast TV's, Paladin made his way across the galaxy borne upon electromagnetic waves. It was the concept of the Paladins as noble warriors that intrigued the receiving Alien confederation, not the locale of the TV series film making.

Have Gun Will Travel is an American Western television series [225 episodes] that aired on CBS from 1957 through 1963. It was rated number three or number four in the Nielsen ratings every year of its first four seasons. Wikipedia
First episode: September 14, 1957
Final episode: April 20, 1963
Network: CBS
Cast: Richard Boone, Kam Tong
Theme songs: Ballad of Paladin, Have Gun Will Travel Opening Theme Song


Paladin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"The paladins, sometimes known as the Twelve Peers, were the foremost warriors of Charlemagne's court, ..."

paladin - definition of paladin by the Free Online Dictionary, Thesaurus and Encyclopedia.
"1. A paragon of chivalry; a heroic champion. 2. A strong supporter or defender of a cause: "the paladin of plain speaking"

It still runs on the Encore Western channel on DirecTV. I can now convince my wife I have a legitimate reason to watch it, looking for pallets.

1/j=-j ?

Strangely enough, this makes sense in the context of this thread.

Well, we may have the imaginary number (i), but the pallets aren't imaginary. Or are they?:confused:

Why did he use j rather than i?

IMO...TBN should seize the opportunity to take advantage of a thread like this and team up with a (non-profit) rural living oriented relief organization/charity etc...and turn it into a "win, win, win" situation for anyone interested...

personally I would willingly give a $ or two actually know (find out) the reason/facts of the topic etc...(and the thread could continue with bogus postings teasing those that won't cough up a $ for a good cause...!

Last night on the local news, they talked about concrete arrows about 20 feet long being across the US. It turned out that they were put in something like every 50 miles between San Francisco and New York to guide the air mail planes back before there were instruments and GPS.

Pallets are puzzling, but am guessing that there is a good reason, even if it is "to confuse the Russians", a saying common back in the Cold War..

Put down the Spyrograph... This is serious! :D

Hey hey hey... not so fast. Please don't discount the Spirograph. If you track the relative positions of Earth and Venus over an 8 year period, this is the resulting pattern. Since we are running into dead ends terrestrially, we may need to look at tools to refute the alienist theory. Where better to start than with the Spirograph... a toy to most of us in the 60s but it was invented by mathematician Bruno Abakanowicz in the late 1800s.

The first airmail pilots followed the train tracks. And when the first passengers flew on Boeing's airmail planes, they usually got off at the first refueling stop and jumped on a train for the rest of the journey across the states because of the noise, cold, and lack of service on the revered Model 40s.

This is not a difficult puzzle.

Those pallets are whatever Chuck Norris says they are!

Okay this is a first... I am commenting on my own post. So... uh, I apologize for previous post as it pertains nothing to the scientific pursuit, in this case pallets, of this thread. I just couldn't let the airmail story go. Steve, please get us back on track.... and BTW, why I am asking an economist to help?
