Seeing where this thread has gone, I hope all of you can take the time to watch RoujinZ a animated film about a bed created to take care of the elderly, as well as provide them with mobility.
At least he had good reasons. He was just a pilot in training (only used sims) and while on a trip to see the prototypes the orbital colony they were developed on is attacked. So he has to jump in the still being tested prototype to try to fight off the attackers, accidentally breaches the reactor of an enemy unit blowing a hole in the side of the colony, with the expected effect.
Thats just his start in the conflict. We haven't even made it to the countless poor souls who have to pilot Zaku against him, or comrades in the crappy GM mass produced suits. Last there is Lala Sun, so yah I think he has a bit of a right to be angsty.
I ewould never buy PS2 version if an alternative was available. As beutiful as people can make games for PS2 (god of war) I'd rather get SC for a more powerful platform.
"Getting the same soundstage in a vehicle that you have in an average home listening room usually requires a lot more effort and precision."
And a bigger car....
Honestly, cars are noisy environments and I cant see why people strive to cram a home theater audio system in them, especially since most people just blast low end so much every body pannel is vibrating (sounds like crap from the outside) and distorting the audio anyway.
You in the car need to hear music and I hope can still hear emergency vehicles before they are crusing your lifeless body. I however in the privacy of my own home, do not want to hear your car audio system as you speed through a residential zone (this is with your windows up).
I'm not saying you should be happy or content with Factory installed gear, but ask yourself if you would like a setup like your outside your window when you are trying to sleep.
All my research has led me to believe that "skin effect" is only an issue in high poltage power line transmissions and things liek that. Got any decent non marketing resorces explaining how the "skin effect" works in home AV land?
I can second this, I have personal knowledge that Monster cables shielding will protect our precious signals from Martian Rays. GOD DAMN MARTIANS!!!
Also you wont believe how much digital signal jitter the Monster optical cables will remove over a 1 meter run. Until Monster Brand cables came about no digital data ever flowed pure and true.
I am currently evaluation Monster brand copper traces on all my PCB uses. IF I get the results I expect I will start re-building all my consumer electronics so I know my signals are being handled best by Monster tech interconnects.
After that I have to look into using Monster brad fabrication for all my IC's.
There is nothing a Monster cable can do that a decent cable, run properly (don't bundle power and signals) will do. Isolate noise generating components and for gods sake spend a couple bucks on ferrite bar chokes first instead of monstrously expensive cables to clean up signals.
The thing is, Adam West seems to have, in later years, grasped the Typcast bull by the horns and mastered it to his own advantage. Either playing a classic TV hero type like Batman, or Playing himself and poking fun at playing a super hero.
Not word for word. This show seems to be taking place as a mix of 1st and 2nd Season and instead of exactly paroting all the dialog (couplings failure I think) they have made the office environment in the show one American office workers can identify with. Also I think the lead actor "Get's It" for the character he is playing. As for Coupling I tihnk the problem was the original show was cast so well, the actors for the US version just couldnt hold up to them. I can think only of about 2 people on US TV who could do the role of Jeff and do it justice.
Looking over The Doctors escapades, he never seemed to be all too settled in time himself. Certainly he never carried a digital watch (they are neat aren't they) or seemed in any particular need/care for the current time.
Kinda depressing that all the stuffy old codgers wont be shuffling around Gallifrey in bad outfits. One thing I actually liked is how out of touch they made the "stay at home" Time Lords. Not grasping the seriousness of death to creatures that don't simply regenerate. Coming to grips with life outside the comforts of the home city. Or just having to deal with things instead of hoping they will go away.
Speaking of bad Time Lord fashion sense, I noticed upon watching Blakes 7 that the one weapons designer who ran away because he was pissed no one gave him credit for his work was dressed suspiciously like a Time Lord. Another Renegade maybe?
Vulcan religious tracts? Sounds groovy. Written by Jack The Vulcan probably and full of warnings against surcoming to emotion. I can just see the Vulcan version of Dark Dungeons now....
Tom was a great Doctor, but he is now perminantly a Marsh Wiggle (Puddle Glum) in my mind after seeing the Chronacles of Narnia done back in the day (not the new one). He so totally owned the show when he was around.
My favorite interview with Patric Stewart was back in the early/mid 90's. He was asked about earlyer actin roles and he mentioned Life Force, "A little film that has never been seen in America" (his words), at that point everyone in the room died laughing. Back then I used to work for Blockbuster and it was a popular bad Sci-Fi film to rent. I bet he was just voicing his private wish.
The Prius battery pack is somewhere in the area of 320V if I remember correctly, my guess is they packed twice as many cells in then Honda did because the other specs seem to be alike.

Refresh my memory on the Mecha content of Space Cruiser Yamato? I'm drawing a blank.

I don't remember how socially inept he was.

The autons looked the same as the old ones I remember.
Get an ISOBAR better then monster and based on science not technobabble. Probably cost less as well.

Autons are a serious threat. Have you secured your tupperware?

Why do you say that? Serenity was hardly a slick, well maintained, high tech space craft (comparred to other ships we see).
Humm, going by wardrobe alone then I think the next doctor should be Danny John-Jules!
Didn't he already do a character like that for the original LEXX series (before SCI-FI messed it up).

NEver trust anyone whose name is an anagram of "Master" or "The Master".

Toyota seems to have fixed that problem with the 2003 model Prius. Since then they all have hatchback and fold down rear seats.
"war ante" = warranty, sorry about that typo was fixed badly by spelling fixer.
