  1. It begs the question.... What was the Crysis engine running on?
  2. OMG! My eyes!
  3. That's why nobody touches my machine, except me.
  4. This looks interesting: STAR TREK LEGACY
  5. LOL, Been there a few times. Seen it snow in May in Alberta. Please step out of the airlock and carry on
  6. Wolfies' nose never lies, especially when there is something rotten in Canada.

  8. Go Gammulan and try out a Firestorm. /chuckles in an evil fashion.
  9. Red River, /stretches fingers in front of the airlock controls. "One more pointless post without your system profile in your sig and I'm gonna space you for awhile" Comprende?
  10. Sheesh, looks like military service has become military slavery. Maybe it's time to send a letter of complaint to your Congress critter.
  11. The Dark Phoenix story arc actually began in the second movie, X-men United. It is concluded (maybe) in The last Stand. ;D I hope they will continue with future offerings from The X-Men and The Fantastic Four as well.
  12. I bet those idiot children have learned the true meaning of "Don't tread on me"
  13. Sincerest condolences on your loss, Remo. Hopefully you can take comfort in the knowledge that she is in a much better place, free of the pains of this world.
  14. I give it four thumbs up.
  15. That is why you shouldn't go into a movie expecting anything. I went in for the ride and what a ride it was. If the critic in your link had any neurons still firing.... ahh nevermind. Critics suck anyway.
  16. I just returned from the early afternoon matinee for this film... WOW!!! 10/10
  17. Well LIS, that is the current modus operandi for what can be commonly referred to as brainwashing. Just like television and radio advertising. Endless repeated loops of information. How many times have you seen a commercial only to have the jingle stuck in your head. If you tell a dog to sit, over and over and over, eventually the dog will comply. It wasn't very long after the WTC was hit that the news media began running a seemingly endless loop of the same report. During the reports they flashed pictures of Osama and the alledged hijackers over and over and over. Today we are still being blitzed by the media but, not with the important news. Instead they run stories about other things, over and over over until you are focused on that issue. The important news is kept under the radar in lieu of what they want you to see. It's slight of hand with a capital S. Jedi mindtricks if you will.
  18. What the hell has the border patrol been spending their budget on, WELCOME SIGNS!!!!????
  19. Red River, First things first. Please READ THIS After you comply with those requirements, try to reproduce the problem. If you can't reproduce it then reload the game. Please keep us posted on your progress. I edited the spelling in your topic because misspelled words in topic headers are not tolerated here because it gums up the search function and makes a topic difficult to find.

  21. Props to Dagoth for dgging it up, instead of starting a new thread
  22. Large bladder, eh? The Sun Oil Co. has been blending ethanol with their fuels for a long time. Next time you drive past a Sunoco check their prices, for ethanol blended fuel which isn't openly listed save for a small sticker on the pumps. They aren't going to say that everyone should burn ethanol in the family truckster. They'll slip it in under the radar like so many other things. Using the age old philosophy,"What J.Q. Public doesn't know won't hurt us. As for vehicles that are burning strictly ethanol. at present they are limited to a few municipal fleets that were specially modified to use it because of the moisture issue. I'm with you on the hydrogen fuel extraction method. It's been invented already. But somehow the patent was declined and the gentlemans' invention disappeared. Go figure. Oh, and completely off topic... I'm itching to perform my first mastectomy
  23. Interesting spin on the subject. Straight from the suits I'm afraid. It's the points of interest that they omit that really count, IE: The article states that ethanol can't be transported in pipelines because it picks up moisture. Now the question here is, Is it or is it not being transported when drivers pump it into the tank of their car and drive around? A three word answer comes to mind:Der da der! From the voice of reason, my own experience and expertise about automibiles and the fuels they run on. Ethanol has been around for quite some time. Ask any moonshiner. They were the first to discover that it would power an internal combustion engine, but it just doesn't pack the same punch as petroleum based fuel. So, you would never catch a shine runner powering his sled with anything but good 'ol Ethyl gasoline. And maybe a bottle of nitrous for that extra kick in the seat of the pants in a pinch. There are still a few of these outlaws around, go ask them. They drive the NASCAR circuit now. Ethanol has another nasty side effect. On older cars, made prior to 1980, the ethanol tends to break down aged neoprene rubber tubing in the fuel lines and they spring leaks. Not exactly a safe way to drive in my book. Say goodbye to the classic cars of the sixties and seventies. I used to own a 1977 Cadillac with the 350 MFI engine. I'm talking high pressure fuel line Multiport Fuel Injection baby. Soon after the city and county where I lived passed legislation requiring ethanol blended fuel use, my car started popping fuel lines about once a week, as well as the injector seals. Took the better part of a year to get everything replaced. Only one problem. The tubing, sold by the aftermarket parts places, was still neoprene rubber. So you can guess what happened then. Newer cars have fuel lines made of hard plastic with special couplers not susceptible to the ravages of ethanol.Unfortunately you Can't get stuff like that for older cars. Blending ethanol with gasoline won't help the artificially created fuel crunch we have now. It's only going to help line the pockets of Archer Daniels. Guess whose secret club he belongs to. And guess who gets the most out of the treasury in the form of Ag Dept subsidies. Say hmm. [ 05-22-2006, 01:26 PM: Message edited by: Wolferz ]
