RE: Welcome to the list Alistair

well, my amazing obscure skill: I can name 5 different types of FTL
drive
(and the pricipals behind them) as well as being a general anime and
sci-fi
maniac. I also have a bit of a fascination for power armor and big
mecha..

oh, and it was a bit of a shock when I checked my mail after about 2
days,
and outlook came up with "downloading message 2 of 83".

Hey, the number of e-mails you get is a good excuse to upgrade your
system
(I darn`t look in my mail file, as I`ve kept every mesage for the past
18
months, and it`s rather a lot <G>).

The more obscure the knowledge, the better.

And what do you meen, innane ramblings. We don`t have innane ramblings,
just
discusions on off topic subjects that develope along in a random
direction.
