It's also fairly humorous how the rebels say they can give you power, yet it's so much more easy to become powerful by playing a loyalist with a canister addiction. Oh well.

It's been way too long to help you much more than the FAQ can. I remember Galag-trav being a bit of a pain to complete, mainly due to all of the pillars and gates. My best advice is to search the area of the first floor thoroughly. You'll find it eventually.

The charm is at the Tower gates, right before Khyryk's tower. Follow the south path and search thoroughly. You will find a body with the charm.

If you mean the ring, then you have to make it yourself.

Check the FAQ posted above for more info.

No, you can't use the same key for all three games. However, when you order you'll be informed what file to copy over to install the registered version on your computers. If not, check the tech support page.

Originally written by Student of Trinity:

Mars has little atmosphere because it is too small. But, at least according to current understanding, there are two factors at work in this. The most obvious one is that a smaller planet has weaker gravity and a lower escape velocity, so it is easier for gases to leave. But this is far from the whole story, because actually even the biggest planets will steadily lose atmosphere; just more slowly.

Atmospheric loss is by Jean's escape (gravity not holding the gases in) and is pretty minimal for most circumstances. It most affects hydrogen and helium, which are not the main constituents of most terrestrial planetary atmospheres.

Impact ablation- driving off gases by impacts, and photochemistry are both more important. The latter is the probable reason why there's so little gaseous water on Mars-

H2O + hv --> H2 + "O" where the H2 gas is lost by Jean's escape and the "O" reacts with surface rocks to form peroxides.

Politics and Beliefs in General
FAQSELF

I've been following the Dover PA evolution trial since it started last month, and frankly I think it is shameful. Intelligent design was initially an interesting philosophy akin to theistic evolution- that God operates through nature. However, creationists, smarting over the 1987 supreme court case that said they couldn't teach their religion as science, highjacked the term and made "intelligent design" into "creationism lite." ID is a scientifically vacuous as its predecessor, although with more Ph.Ds on its side.

It's no surprise that the Dover trial centers around a textbook entitled "Of Pandas and People" that, prior to the 1987 court case, used the words "creationism" and "created" abundantly, but after the court's ruling, replaced all of the occurrences of these two words with "intelligent design" or "intelligently designed." The Dover school board first tried to have Of Pandas and People as the main textbook, but quickly changed their minds to requiring teachers to let their students know that the book was their and that it answered many of the faults of evolutionary theory.

It's also no surprise that one of the proponents of removing evolution from biology textbooks (a fellow named Mummert) has described the response to this stance as
quote:
"We've been attacked by the intelligent, educated segment of the culture," he said, adding that the school board's declaration is just a first step.
Who do you think is supporting this decision ;) ?

It's also no surprise that the school board has consistently labelled anyone who disagrees with their view of evolution as "brainwashed by college-classes."

Finally, it's no real surprise that a full 35% of the people who testified at the Kansas school board hearings on intelligent design are Young-Earth creationists, and 60% of the remainder were what are one might classify as Old-Earth Creationists. Only about 5% (1-2 people) actually admitted that evolution occurs.

The control rod is given to you by Khyryk.

Also, pylons are easy if you don't mind a cheesy tactic. Haste yourself to at least 12 AP. Move two spaces, attack with a missile, run away with your remaining AP. Rinse and repeat. That should take care of the pylons.

No shop trains in Drakon-making, so you're stuck with only 2 points in the skill. This is probably not intentional, as there seems to be a canister left out of the game somewhere.

Yes, it is better to be somewhat arrogant if you want to be pro-shaper. However, you can still be fairly nice to people and still be counted as pro-shaper, just don't overdo it. I find it best to not give an opinion unless directly asked, and to also make sure that I always get the maximum out of a given quest. Such actions usually are pro-shaper as you have to be fairly rude.

Congrats Drew! May you have many years of marital bliss! Northern Virginia is a fine place to raise a family, when you decide to do so.

Yes, I too am married (My wife and I were wed on May 28th of this year), but I don't think I'm the first member to be married while here. I seem to remember there was one fellow at a Utah University who just got married or was getting married shortly after joining.

I know this really isn't my place to inform you, but Schrodinger's press release is here, an article by one Francis Reddy on how some experiments conducted upon meteorites by Schrodinger's research team suggest that Earth's phosphorous is largely extra-terrestrial. I'm curious as to how this is working out in the scientific community, actually. It would explain why Schrodinger is so busy, at least.[QB][/quote]Fine by me. The paper on this subject is en route to publication and should be available next month in the journal Astrobiology. And yes, that's why I've not been around here too much (Ph.D. work), in addition to getting married and buying a house :) .

An update was submitted and should be posted shortly to GameFAQs. Many thanks to all who have been helping. I've reached a lull in my playing, mainly because the rebel path isn't that great- a rebel-only trainer would have made my day. As it is, my canister-crazed loyalist guardian was much more powerful. Oh well. I'll continue ASAIFLI. About three more areas still need descriptions.
