I guess so. But it certainly isn't a requirement. You seem to have a rather closed personal profile, but that isn't by necessity, correct? Offhand, I can think of 4 prominent members of this board who have their given names in their profile.

What are you preaching, and why? You encouraged people in another thread to read a book, or write a story. Both are admirable things, but this is a forum about a computer game company. Luckily, the folks that play these games are more likely to either read a book or write a story than any other subset of internet trolls with whom I'm familiar.

Great to have your own opinion, and thanks for sharing. Sorry for appearing to be overbearing about this, but you seemed a little too concerned about the welfare of Nicothodes, which is odd given that you have no history here. Is it a standard practice of yours to search out online forums for teenage girls and to warn them to protect themselves? If so, you might want to get that checked out. It initially sounded, and still sounds, like an unhealthy obsession.

Welcome to Spiderweb Software, land of aberrations.

Edit - Meh, I won't hold it against you Aran. ;)

I wonder if those emotionally unstable preteens get to see real live girls where they live. It may just be all internet though.

For that matter, I wonder if Nicothodes ever encounters real live emotionally unstable preteens where she lives? Or if she is even aware that she is an adolescent girl? ZOMG! The conundrums we face!

If you are scared or otherwise emotionally unfit to see a kid's hand, don't look at the picture linked in the first post. Enough warning?

Taking 50 advil will kill you, too, but that doesn't make them "bad." And radiation is a lot more than evil cancer-rays...

Yes. But as far as relative quote trees goes, the damage done by 1 Advil/day is far less than 1/50th of a lethal dose of radiation per day.

That happens. Hot in summer and Cold in winter. When you get old enough, you will begin to appreciate that regularity.

I have to take issue with the idea that the environment is out of control, as stated by the OP. Nothing could be further from the truth. For example, I know there are proven causal relationships between atmospheric conditions and the results I see materialize. Why, just today I happened to notice that it was very humid and fairly cold. Quite quickly it began to mist, and then snow, and then more mist. I didn't have my trust weather balloon handy, but past experience indicates that what happened was that it was winter. Luckily this episode is typically followed by a period of notexactlywinter, followed by three weeks of summer sometime in late July.

Honestly, it seems to be in control. Do you live someplace that has cultural expectations of the elements that differ from mine?

Re: Slarty's message, which I forgot to quote.

NH is a great place to visit, or to pass through on a drive. I can't even begin to imagine living there, especially for the 17 months you have. Do you have a commuter rail pass yet?

I'm sure Kel remembers this. Once, about two and a half years ago, we had a debate during which a person changed their mind about a subject. That's why.

Beg all you want, the only reasons the Beatles made it to the big show was because they were cute and they were put on American tv. Without that, they were just another Chumbawumba.

The Beatles were never that good anyway. Actually, they sort of ruined British music.
