When did 65% start to mean "not bad"? Everybody's talking about how the country is split down the middle when one third of the country didn't even bother to vote implying that "they just don't care". IMHO, 65% is better than what we have seen in the past, but still nowhere near what it should be.
I received different results. I have a psionic level of 5.1 and "The ability to project a beam of concussive force from eyes. Optic blasts require extensive training for precision control." I also have not been able to get to level two, but I had to "Blast the lock" to get into Xavier's office. I have heard that the avatar is actually generated from the way that you fill out the application (which was rejected twice in my case before letting me in...) and that seems to be the case for me.
After the recent article about IDcide, several of us at work have been using it. We seem to be in general agreement that our volume of spam has decreased. Is this coincidence? Has anyone else noticed a decline? -Flu
Somewhere I have an old 45 (The record, not the gun. You know, the flat round thing that you use to play on turntables? Oh, never mind...) of R2-D2 and C3P0 singing "What Do You get A Wookie For Christmas When He Already Owns A Comb?". I don't remember what was on the flip side, but I'm pretty sure it was worse than the "A" side. Now I'm gonna have to try to find it...
60 degree angle? Connect two purple hubs into a 90 degree corner. Connect two rods into the second slot from the top or the bottom of each. 60 degrees.
Slightly offtopic, but is anyone else here a closet K'nex user? I have had my share of Legos in the past and enjoyed every minute of it until I dicovered K'nex. IMHO, they are much more verstile, the "structures" or "designs" or whatever are extremely sturdy, and the variations are just as limitless.
The one advantage that Legos have at this point is the MindStorms. K'nex only have a motor at this point which will "spin" pieces in a few different directions, but with a little creativity they are just as fascinating.
I'd be curious to know who among you with and without CTS has ever taken typing in school or a course somewhere. Most of the people around me seem to fall into two catagories: Those who did take typing and now have CTS and those who didn't and don't. Seems to me that the forced positioning of the hands applies too much strain. Just my 2/5ths of a nickel...

I hope someday to have a web page with my K'nex creations, but until then the only decent site I have found yet is at http://www.balmoralsoftware.com/knex/ knex.htm
Sorry, if this is too far off topic, but Legos seems to get a lot of press where K'nex have yet to be mentioned. Kinda like the Linux and Windows...
