One thing that annoys me about some forums is when they don't allow searches for three-letter words. Don't just think of the common ones, like "the" and "and".

At least it can be circumvented somewhat if you use Google's site: function.

And you don't need to learn to walk, if you only plan to lie in your bed the whole life long. :rofl:

(Also, would you say that a piece of software doing your forum postings for you would be better than you actually reading and posting in the forum?)

9 years ago this day I set off on what is still my most memorable trip aboard - to Huntsville AL for attending the Space Camp! Especially because I had to try 3 consecutive times to get 1 of the 6 places for this opportunity through a very popular competition by a certain American insurance company. Ah those were the days.....

Of course that depends on the state of the software. But if you'd but a few months or years of work into it with some smart software developers I'm sure there would be some kind of software that could replace me.
I mean, no sleep, no need for food, faster CPU than this brain, probably able to search and filter information on the internet faster than me.
It sounds possible.


On a totally different topic: A Cameroonian soccer player in Germany once left his team saying: "I don't want to be relegated, I want to play Champions League!" Now his last three teams have been in the Europa League in the last two years (two this year) and he's in the Second Division.
Well done!

This video brought back memories from a trip a few years ago. I was out snorkeling near a boat wreck off the coast of Barbados when one of these amazing creatures went coasting about three or four meters under me. The Bull Shark must've been around two meters in length. Needless to say though, I expedited my exit of the water after it left...

Renting 17 square meters in a big city means...FASTER INTERNET!
Which means I have a faster uplink than Curiosity to the MRO.:hailprobe:
It's kinda sad that a mars rover has faster data transfer into Low Martian Orbit than Earth has to Earth...

UNLIMITED POWER!

Russia has Spetznaz, England has the SAS, Canada has JTF2, and the good ol' USA has SEALS:

I had my first flying lesson last Sunday in a Cessna 152. Man that was exciting!



I was surprised by all of the turbulence. Orbiter never shakes around like that! :lol:

So Windows 7 decided to destroy itself, and now I'm running Ubuntu because I had the disk lying around. Time to relearn the computer...

I assume you've never played it near a fault line, have you? :p

Eh? You mean like the places where there are seams in the textures on the ground? I never noticed anything odd around there, although that might explain something SE mentioned about a previous flight to Wideawake International...
