Ummm is certainly correct.
Perhaps you aren't aware of this, but the government does have other duties than the "war on terrorism." Hopefully an organization as large as the US government can perform two task at once.
George W might not be able to, but certainly the government can be concerned two things at the same time. Otherwise we'd all be waiting at the DMV for a LOOOONG time to get our liscences renewed because of the war on terrorism.
Probably one of the FEW novels that really NEED CGI in order to get it done (try finding a few hundred kids, who can act, and stay young enough for the sequels)....or you can pull a LOTR and film all the films at once, elimating child actor's prediliction to aging.
Well, I hate to be anti-open source. But CIV3 is copy-written. And one guy (or even company) cannot modify closed source. Even if it isn't for profit. Sid Meier has the right to make his money. And I wouldn't want the German Amazon.com taking my money either. I hate to be capitalist but tough nuts.
It's a nice gesture to offer to work with the official translation team, but they are probably (hopefully) have the entire process planned out. So it wouldn't be of much help to have some random guy "helping out."
Besides, even if I had to wait I'd rather have a real version instead of a hacked up patch that comes with no guarantee.
Man, I love this. Doom is a probably the game that deserves a history written of it. It sparked the revolution the gaming and technology industries. And yes I know that it wasn't the first FPS (First Person Shooter), but it brought FPS to the masses of the world. And thus, earned the right to be revered in such a manner.
Hey. I don't think there is a direct correlation between putting men in space and the beginning of a cold war. A few too many points you make are incorrect. Such as:
"A rocket is far more complicated than a missile, and the technologies are remarkably parallel."
While it may be true that both require propulsion of some sort, they are hardly parallel. The USA's missile defense system, in all it's glory, is to have a missile hit another missile (or other flying target) while the targeted object is still in flight.
China wants to send people into space... With things like lunar landing gear and scientific equipment.

Yeah, he also so needy for attention that he lists his phone number at the bottom of the article.

He did coin (or I least I've never heard of it yet) the term cyberhacktivism. So that's gotta be worth something. Cheers
Yes, it could "easily" be replaced. But have fun for the next 3 months changing CDs to re-rip them all to mp3s.
So, in answer to your question... Saving that much time is worth the cost of a new hard disk. Easily.
man pretty smart of microsoft to realize their own mistakes may be required in games

FPS has come along way... but has it ever been as fun as it was?

Hardly what I would call "parallel."
