Are you suggesting that olive drab would be too exciting for our quiet
friends up north?
Having thought about this matter for about 30 seconds, after watching Frank
Gehry on PBS, I would think your friend Andrea might consider some sort of
dome-like structure matching the shape of the deployed parachute. The
parachute(s) would rest on this dome (or might be inflated from below by gigunda
fans) in their deployed configuration, similar to the way that costumes are
displayed on a person-shaped mannequin, supporting the fabric in the shape it was
intended to form.
Tell me how many ways this is wrong. And I don't want to hear that Andrea
doesn't have enough space.
