    Why not italics? Are you not a superfan of them? I personally abhor boldface. But to each his schone, you know? I've degraded into a mere parody of sky, I know.

    I have something in common with you. At the moment I complete this sentence, I won't know what's next in the writing. But, though my agreements hurt inside, I must say...I'm not hurting. See, were you trying to be funny or insightful/interesting? I think both. Yours was a funny comment on the typical leniency of the courts in civil cases against large companies...letting them repay with vouchers and not cash. Still pushing out their products into every home. Guess most moderators don't agree with me...they thought it was more interesting. Me, I always go with funny, even when things are interesting, just because people, deep down, I think, would rather be called funny than smart or insightful. Now...chimeras are nasty. Don't zap one over to me any day this standing time.

    I guess, with our 20/20 hindsight, we can say that bush admin dropped the ball preventing 9/11...but they responded actively...yes, they held out on dept. of homeland sec. for awhile, but all in all, they responded. Not perfectly, you say? Considerably better than Clinton. Token missile strikes that did nothing. I'm afraid Gore might have continued the trend. I sympathize, though. Look how the Left went after Bush for his promise of retaliation in Afganistan. It's a scary thing...thinking of committing to such historical action. Now, you may wonder why I went into issues unrelated to Iraq. Am I trying to pull a Hannity and argue about a sound, but unrelated, point to throw off attention from the real issues? No. Basically, all I'm saying, maybe the Dems have terrible intrinsic faults as well. Maybe their total sideline passivity would be as bad in the long run as that costly and irresponsible extra battle Bush put on top of the "war on terror."

    The slow cooker factor is always a sticking point for most people. All I can do is offer you the advice I so often hear from my Aikido instructor: "Be patient...this stuff isn't easy to get. It might take 20 years."

    come on, admit it, you posted the parent comment anonymously, and then replied to it, right? Maybe? I guess I can't prove it...but I've done worse things. A guilty conscience can't trust in anyone else, I guess.

    Pay no attention to the subject, it isn't for the times. I want to engage in pretenious opinion spewing now.

    Relevant to this article, though, I have to say, I don't think this would ever take off as a legitimate source of quality independent films for three reasons:

    1. Serious filmmakers would just invest in software aimed specifically at professional 3D animations.

    2. If successful independent films started coming out of X-boxes or other consoles at any significant rate, there'd be royalty, DMCA, and/or copyright lawsuits from the console makers.

    3. While slow cookers are a convenient way for bachelors to prepare healthy and tasty meals without taking to much time for the prep work, darker beer will always be for us to animate in Hollywood.

    Arg. The golden days of tech optimism are over for me. There was a time when news about flawed hardware/software was rare enough to be noteworthy when it came out. Now I get too much. I guess golden boy Cisco being in the Crisco is a big deal, though, considering how fundamentalrouters are to the backbone of the internet. At least I can still shovel. Step on a crack, break the net's back...but fibers can still sit in their shoveled holes.
