I thought her son was "Alex". I can't recall the name of her husband, though. Maybe Ethan.
And how does Sayeed know that there are other people on the island other than the French girl? Because she told him? Because he "heard" their voices? Or did he see them when he was returning to the caves?
As for the girl's baby -- watch out; if she gets with the hobbit and they raise the child together, she'll be breaking the rule the psychic gave her.

Have you tried Zantac? If your heartburn is caused by acid reflux, Zantac works great.
Edit: It would probably help if I mentioned the right drugs.....

It comes with a quickstart card. Steam users can access it by right-clicking on Half-life 2 and selecting Manual. Mine came with just 5 cds. Thats it. Nothing else in the box Where did you get it from? Mine came with the CD's, a reference card, and a $20 mail-in rebate for the new ATI videocard.

AMD 2400+ 1 Gig Ram 9500 Pro
Game runs ok at 1024 x 768 on medium settings but still is a bit choppy at times. I would guess I'm getting between 20 - 30 fps. I just updated my Catalyst drivers last night, though, so I'll see later today if it runs better.

Gaming / Console / PC Gaming / Platform Recommendations for Indoctrination
|
on: November 15, 2004, 06:34:09 PM
|
Beyond Good & Evil would be my recommendation. It was fun and easy to get into. And though I haven't played it, Katamari Dynasty has gotten good reviews and seems like it might fit your criteria. That's Katamari Damacy, and it is the reason I bough a PS2. The reason I keep it is Virtua Fighter 4: Evo, Fight Night 2004, SSX3, FFX, and so much more! Oops. :oops: Thanks Eduardo.

It's interesting to me that this guy and that hacker who was busted a few years ago and sent to federal prison were both from Raleigh, North Carolina. Why?? That's my hometown. I would decend into a life of crime, too, if I had to suffer cheering for NC State athletics....

I played around for a couple of hours today as a hunter, too (Tauren). So far, I'm enjoying it a good bit more than I did when I was playing as an undead Warlock (granted I only played until level 5). I think it's mainly the beginning area for the Taurens that I prefer. Using a gun is pretty fun, as is my tracking ability (it's a lot easier to find the particular monsters you're looking for if you can just place the cursor over the mini-map to see their names).

Non-Gaming / Off-Topic / Ban on Gay Marriage a winner in 11 states.
|
on: November 11, 2004, 05:42:45 PM
|
|
This may have been said many times already since I haven't read the whole thread. But in case it hasn't, here is my view on the issue:
Doesn't the fact the the Bush administration is calling for a Constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage show that at present the Constitution allows for gay marriage? These "activist judges" have just found that the Constitution permits gay marriage; so rather than argue that the Constitution in fact forbids gay marriage, the administration has decided to change the Constitution. It seems to me that act in itself proves that denying homosexuals the right to marry is against the Constitution.

I played for about an hour last night as an undead Warlock. So far the game seems pretty fun, though not all that much different than other MMORPG's. I've found the quest system to be nice in that at least I have goals; in a normal MMORPG I'd be killing the same monsters over and over again like I do in WoW, but there would be no goal or real point to it other than leveling. In any case, I plan on trying it some more later today.

Darn, maybe I should try downloading it at Fileplanet. Right now I'm getting about 35k/sec from Blizzard's website. If that rate keeps up, I'll have the whole game downloaded in a mere 14 hours from now!

For what it's worth, I've noticed that to get a good score on the dancing sections I usually have to push the buttons a bit earlier than I would have thought based on visuals. It seems that the correct timing requires that the buttons be pushed when a little more than half of the icon has just entered the circle.

Gaming / Console / PC Gaming / Corrupted saved games in Rome: Total War?
|
on: November 06, 2004, 02:39:59 PM

Has anyone had their saves in Rome not work? It had been a week or two since I played, but now every time I try to load up my save games, the program crashes to the desktop. It doesn't seem to matter which save game I am loading either. Has anyone experienced this problem and if so do you know of anything that can fix it? Thanks.

The fireworks annoyed me so much. Here you've got perfect signal flares to use if you see a passing ship/plane, and you're using them up to signal when it's 5:00. Kate has a watch, Sayid has a watch, you can't find a third one?? Other than that it was a fun episode, I'm loving this show more and more. Plus, what planes allow people to carry fireworks? Isn't that one of the strictly forbidden items to take on a flight?

I think the person that hit Sayed is an up-until-now unknown survivor that ended up at a different part of the island. He/She hit Sayed because she thought he caused the plane to crash through terrorism.
