Just a general comment...I'm usually the first person to correct this sort of thing, but people here spend more time criticising Omega's grammar/spelling errors than addressing his ideas...------------------ Frank's Home Page "Gardening for Dummies is too intense." - Rick

It's kinda the same mentality that leads people to criticize Bush, ain't it, Frank?And yes, I know that that's posessive. It's called a typo. ------------------ Pilot: You're sure they were Americans, eh? Fraser: They were all wearing new boots, they were driving a Jeep Wrangler, and they carried big guns.

It should be "isn't it Frank".Actually Jeff, that was extrememly picky. It's one thing to get annoyed at him spelling Britain as "Brittain", but the use of the possesive apostraphe? It's a really easy mistake to make. And like there/their, and to/too, it's something that took me ages to get. Hey, so I'm bad at English. Sue me. But I've got the moral victory. Oh yes. ------------------ "If every vampire who said he was at the Crucifixion was actually there it would've been like Woodstock. I was at Woodstock.

I'll correct sumone, but only when it's amusing. Like when somwone mispells the same word numerous times in the same paragraph. Especially when someon like that mispells it each time differently. Wildcats Football Rules!!!

"My dad and I wear the same pants."That's why people should vote Nader. Anyway, a friend told me that the original quote was from a campaign person for Gore who said he was one of the first people who supported/instigated the Internet. Then that guy was misquoted saying that Gore invented the Internet. I just think this is one of the most ridiculous things people can argue over. Of course, a lot political arguments around here are childish to begin with.

I've yet to see anyone correct Omega's spelling of the word "prove" Omega, I'm sorry for being a nitpicker. ------------------ Gore/Lieberman 2000 *** I'll hug your elephant if you'll kiss my ass. *** "I think anybody who doesn't think I'm smart enough to handle the job is underestimating." - George "Dubya" Bush

I started to correct the "proove" thing, but opted for inventing the internet myself, then I thought, well, hell, I do enough typos, goofed up spelling, and screwed up grammer myself, so I guess I shouldn't pitch stones.------------------ Stupid bastards and religious freaks, so safe in their castle keeps...

Actually, Gore said "I took the initiative in creating the internet." on a TV broadcast on one of the talk shows/ news programs he was on, I forget which. Possibly "Oprah."------------------ "Ed Gruberman, you fail to grasp Ty Kwan Leap. Approach me, that you might see." -- The Master

All I've actually seen is the clip of him, saying those exact words, so I can't be sure of this, but I've been told that he realized afterward that that didn't sound right and wasn't what he meant. But, like I said, I don't know if that's true or not.------------------ "Yeah...apparently Sizer is very hard to say, so they replace it with 'Is Mr. Caeser home?' Sometimes I'll say that no, he has, in fact, passed away. 'My apologies.' 'Oh, that's ok, I'm over it. Brutus is still a wreck though.' Then I hang up." -Simon Sizer on telemarketers, 1-Nov-2000

I still haven't seen it. If it's been on during Andromeda, it must have been while I went away from the TV during the commercials...------------------ "Yeah...apparently Sizer is very hard to say, so they replace it with 'Is Mr. Caeser home?'

Or we just have different commercials. I'm pretty sure it was on during Andromeda because it wasn't during Voyager or Beast Machines. ------------------ "The distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion." --Albert Eistein

Well, I've seen it now.
