Let the ice packs melt. When the sea level rises and floods all the coastline cities, where the vast majority of the pollution is coming from, the problem will be solved. Emissions will drop dramatically. Civilization is saved. Of course, cities like New York City, Newark, and many others around the world are gone, but if it saves civilization it is worth it right?
Heck with Kyoto. Let the ice packs melt.

Face it - the environmentalists were talking about global cooling in the 70's and now they are talking about global warming. Which is it guys? Honestly, you people can't make up your minds from one decade to the next. The next thing you'll be telling me is the sky is falling. Oops. Here comes an asteroid. Everyone duck.
(Breaks out asbestos suit).
Let's see. . . if we are talking about a battle between Galactica and Enterprise I would say Galactica would have the firepower, no doubt. However, Enterprise is more manuevable and so like David and Goliath I think Enterprise would fly circles around Galactica. However, if you add in the Vipers then Enterprise would be toast. Enterprise would be able to get away from Galactica with warp speed whereas Galactica only has light speed and so would not be able to get away from Enterprise. Any thoughts? I am sure there will be.
If we are talking series to series I think the characters on Enterprise are better developed (yes it has been a couple of years to get them to be so) Will the BG characters be better developed after a couple of years, most certainly. I can see the writers for BG doing a better job at fleshing them out already than the Enterprise writers have done in the same amount of time. However, I still don't like Starbuck and likely never will. Adama and Tigh are my favorites of the guys. I like Boomer and Six of the gals. Baltar needs to get his brain in gear and stop thinking with his nether regions. Either that or space him out a missile tube.
In all fairness Sci Fi Channel has promoted the dickens out of BG whereas UPN has done little to promote Enterprise. This is why I believe Enterprise has such low turnout. I say let Sci Fi channel promote Enterprise like they did BG and see what happens.
As far as I know you are still innocent until proven guilty. As them for a written statement as to the "supposed" infraction. If they are not willing to provide such a written statement then tell them you will be writing Borland HQ about this lack of ethics -IMHO. Lawyers are not my favorite people in this world. So if they still won't provide you with the information you need to track this 'supposed' infraction down tell them to shove it.
I dl'd the file but the game only plays for about 15-30 minutes. Is this some kind of beta? Should I simply be patient and wait for the updates.
I can't save any of my games either.

Thx.
I certainly don't feel I am antagonistic towards Linux, and I am Mac bigot to the max. In fact, I am quite intrigued by it. I have RH 7.2 loaded on my PC and am waiting for YDL 2.3 to load onto my Mac (actually I am waiting for the drivers for my nVidia GeForce 4 card before installing. I know I have much to learn, but am having fun doing so.
It can be said we are all biased towards our platform of choice. I know many Windows users here are VERY dogmatic about Windows. If anything, I think Mac users are more open to trying various platforms. MTC.

I agree with you for the most part and it will be interesting to see if time proves you correct.
I stand corrected. Thanks clarkc3!
Now B5 was, IMHO, the best sci fi series ever, bar none. Better characters, betters effects, better plot, better everything.

So this means that paying for a startrek.com adress is ridiculous too? Nate
