Don't push John Rambo, he'll push back.

By the way is JE done with his module, or is that a long term backburner kinda deal ?

Sounds likely, i'll try that.

Not only does it say have the latest version, I also have mask of the betrayer installed, I don't see how I can possibly be running an unpatched game. I didn't notice you could talk to the npc, the fact that I can't get rid of him makes me dislike him intensely. I play as a thief and if Bernie comes along he gets killed by the lizards, then I have to clean up the whole place because apparently I can't leave when he's 'dead'. This makes me turn off AI and place him in the corner, out of the way, next best thing to gone. The bug comes when I talk to the elf back in town and he doesen't register that I have the item.

Ok so I picked up the game from the bargain bin, and after much struggle managed to get the camera view somewhat workable, only to find out that I can't progress past the beginner area because the game doesen't register that i picked up the plot item, the shard thingamagingie. This is a common bug right ?. I already have the latest patch installed, and I stared anew in case the old saves would be useless. It's still broken. Jeez, one thing is shipping a game with a fatal bug, the other is still seeing it after the expansion and several patches. PS. I can't post on the nw boards without first signing up with email confirmation and then typing in my cd key to activate it. That just seems like entirely too much work, so I guess i'm hoping to catch a few replies before mom and dad close up the thread.

But, it's possible to track individual batches of plutonium by their composition so it should theoretically be possible to determine where any given detonated bomb comes from. Of course if no one knows where Iran gets their plutonium from to begin with it doesen't matter, but, neuclear bombs aren't usually anonimous. Iran has been actively pursuing their interests by sponsoring and infiltrating Hezbolah and Hamas, but to actually give those groups something as potent as an A bomb is probably detrimental to their own interests. I believe they only want one finger on the button, their own.

Iran is getting nukes, and there ain't a thing to be done about it. There simply isen't support for an invasion to stop it, and there won't be after the election either. That being said I think we can be quite confident that the Iranian military aren't going to hand any of them over to al kaida (Will I ever learn to spell that). Nukes are the best bargaining chip in the world for 'rogue' states, unless they actually start using them.

Let me be the first to admit that this is out of my league as far as knowledge of special relativity and quantum physics.

It's all academic anyway, we can't intervene because of China, and all the rest who would rather make a buck than see democracy return.

I suppose that depends on whether you are the patient or not.

Intervention sounds good, but it practically always seems to go wrong.

Those nine are the official number, released by the junta. There are no reliable sources for casualties.

This is crunchtime, either the demonstrations will lead to a critical mass, emboldening the demonstrators and paving the way for regime change, or it will peter out and there will be a random round of arrests and convctions.

I don't think people with no experience of violence and war are unable to surmise what it's about. It has always been a basic function of humanity after all.

Jimmi never wrote any war songs, dunno about Elvis. But really, a war song by Elvis, probably a good thing I don't know about it. Funny thing about Hendrix, somehow he retains a left wing image, Purple Haze is supposed to be about Vietnam, it ain't, Hendrix himself made it clear several times in interviews that he wanted communism to be fought actively. Hej Dude is supposed to be an anti-gun anthem, it ain't, it's a blues song with a very common blues theme, 'ohh woe is Joe, he shot his girlfriend'. It's very Woody Leadbelly and not political at all.

So it's basically like that intentionally bad Zombie movie Quintin tarantino made, the name escapes me.

So you would have to be a professional soldier/rockstar. Aren't many of those around, and that James Blunt, wasen't he stationed in Bosnia, sings emo lovesongs.

Congrats

Wasn't having health problems recently? I am thinking this is more of a mid-life crisis situation. Our Wals is trying to live out his youthful fantasies one more time before he admits to himself that he's old. And DR, as much as I like The Doors, the lyrics to their songs really aren't poetry. Besides, it's just not the same without Morrison's trademark wailing. Well his mid life crisis seems to be keeping him fit, better than buying a ferari anyway.

There should be one ringtone for fire and another one for crazed gunman, that way people will know whether to run or barricade themselves. Maybe a weapons cache next to the fire extinguishers, 'break in case of maniac'

So, who will give me odds on Walsh washing out miserably ...

That the same genious who lost all the horse on a forced march, no water ?

Waht

What kind of deal is this, a lot of lying around in a hole in the the ground and yet more marching and shouting. The fitness test ?, cause let me tell you, you aren't gonna have the breath for any poetry mantras.
