One of the legends I've heard about the SR-71 was that at full speed the canopy glass would get so hot at that if the pilot touched it with his finger, it would bulge out. Is there any truth to that? Are there any other weird physical things that happen to man and machine at mach 3?

Where do you stand on regulated hunting of protected species? Some say that the revenue it generates is the best way to fund conservation efforts. Others say the rules are impossible to enforce, and hunting perpetuates the idea that the animals are fair game.
