Street, what would your opinion on the war in Iraq be if we had found the WMD's when we first went in? Would you support it and Bush?

Hmmm... guess they were never a white kid walking through Hollis Queens or for that matter a black kid walking alone through Bayside. You learn to take care of yourself. With this statement, I must say: "I could'nt agree more!!" So why is it when Bush decides that we can't wait for the U.N. to do anything and we have to "take care of ourselves" by using pre-emptive warfare, he gets "bush-bashed" for it? Sounds a little hypocritical to me. Anybody else agree?

LOL. Neither do drinking, driving, and fireworks: http://tv.ksl.com/index.php?nid=8&sid=106785

I ran into this exact problem last month. I upgraded my video drivers only to find out that UC would no longer run. I've reverted back to the older drivers so I can continue playing. I figured nVidia had done something to their drivers, but wasn't sure, so thanks for verifying it and letting us poor saps with 440MX's know. That's why I enjoy coming to this forum. You can find answers to all your questions. )

What if we did postpone the elections for a month or so? Is the ENTIRE U.S. population going to be trusted to keep the secret and not let the terrorist groups know that the election will now be in December instead of November? I can see it now: On November 1st, the terrorists strike a U.S city and wipe out 10,000 citizens. But we just point at them and laugh, "Ha Ha, the jokes on you. The elections aren't until NEXT month....." If we postpone the elections, they'll probably just postpone their attacks, and we'll then just show that the U.S. can be forced to change our lifestyle when we're threatened.

Is Resnig half gremlin?

That is because the beef producers are generally private businesses, so they actually keep decent records that the government then used to track the cows down. If the government ran the cattle industry, we could be sure that there would be cows walking down our streets and steak would cost $500 a pound.

you remember when your computer last ran a piece of software that wasn't part of the BC series...

Well street, while you're celebrating that, the rest of us will celebrate something worth celebrating: freeing the Iraqi people from living in fear of a murdering and oppressive regime.

I have to agree with Jaguar that there are a few people here who will complain that Bush is crying wolf, but if something did happen and he didn't say anything they would criticize that also. I don't mind the government coming out and warning us that there MIGHT be a possibility of an attack on U.S. soil. It helps remind me that we are at risk and I should use some common sense by not opening every cooler that doesn't belong to me that I see. There is a large number of people in this country that don't have enough common sense, so they have to be warned about this type of thing, whether it ends up happening or not.

When you sell items to a station, you look at the amount the station SELLS it for and think that is how much you are getting instead of looking at the price the station BUYS them for.

Thanks for the answers, SC and Shingen. I just wanted to make sure that if I ended up playing the same game for a few years, I wouldn't run out of enemies to fight.

<--- Like Jaguar

I figured I couldn't when I purchased a FC and all it did was sit in my cargo bay taking up space, but I couldn't find an answer elsewhere so I decided to ask.

I am posting these here because I'm not sure where to post them anymore. 1) What happened to the New Commanders Forum? 2) I've re-read the manual, appendix, and revisions last night, and I searched the forums today, but couldn't find the answer to this question (I probably just missed it). I have Warmonger that comes with 2 shuttles but no fighters. Can I purchase a fighter for it or am I limited to just being able to replace my original craft that are destroyed? 3) Does the single-player UC universe start with and maintain a fixed number of NPC's, or does the number fluctuate during the game. (What I mean is when I destroy a NPC, does a new one get created elsewhere in the universe to replace it? This is probably a question for the SC) [ 06-18-2004, 01:07 PM: Message edited by: Matchoo ]
