    There seems to be more modding down then up lately or so it seems. I don't get mod points very often so I have, so far, only used my points to mod people up. When I do have mod points and I am looking at posts for a new topic, the "mod downs" come so fast that it makes my head spin. Anyway, it's a lot more fun to look for posts that really contribute something to a topic and mod those up then to find the "trolls," "off-topics," "flamebaits," etc.

      2: That is an IMI Galil, the Jewish makeover of the AK-47 (No, really, Jewish... as in Israel)

      3: One of the Daimler/Benz guys' daughter, Mercedes, I think.

      I could be wrong, as I can't see the picture from work, but #4 is most likely the Black Widow. It's black, and has a red hourglass shape on it's abdomen.

    The designers of BEEP are a bunch of fools... All that "extensibility" nonsense is a nightmare to implement and to deal with...

    Anyone that embedes XML into a network protocol should be shot and not allowed to touch a computer for the rest of his life.

    It makes you wonder if in the end BEEP is better than the abuse of HTTP others make...
