- This didn't happen to me, but somebody told me about the time he was
- thermal soaring and got into a good one by circling in the same place a
- bird was. His plane got way up there and he was at it quite a while
- and eventually the bird flew off. Pretty soon it started to get dark,
- so he figured it was time to bring the glider down. Just about that
- time, his glider flapped its wings -- he'd been flying the bird for the
- last half-hour or so. Never did find that glider.
