Behemoth~SPARTA~

Black Death Marik Reporting in.

Are us Spartans doing group play in any numbers? I became a founder (like a tool) really like it, once it starts getting more depth this will really be fun, comms and groups are a must though. -Behemoth Mech name is: Black Death Marik

Thanks Custard, Is this all I need, 107 is the latest patch for AO? I'll have rustle up my TS login. When do you guys start? -B

Hey Guys, I've been away for a bit (new job). If someone could get me up to speed and give me a subordinate (read: just follow orders stupid) role I'd gladly join on. I have to get TS up and running though. -B

Boy, you said it! Heart of gold is one of my favorites! I remember the day I bought the album like it was yesterday. I was 19 driving a Trabant through northern East Germany making a B line for the Grenz. I was lucky enough to have the on paper car in the country with a cassette deck. Golden wheat swaying in the cool breeze, and Niel Young on the player, perfect. Thanks for the memories, I need to find that LP... now where did I put that? -B

I'm so buying fArma1 when it comes out. I gets my chicken by the dozens! "boys, we're in the bizness of killin' chickens... bizness is good!" sorry couldn't resist. -B

Much obliged, I hate fire, though some of us are witches... did I say witches? I meant Bi***es.

Well, I don't want to debate climate change, as it comes too close to politics here in the states, but global warming is a horrible title for the patterns scientists see in nature. The mini Ice Age was in the Medieval period and it was due to a massive infusion of fresh water out of the Great lakes (glacial lake Agassiz), the thought was that it caused a fresh water "dam" that shut down the Thermal-Haline circulation (the gulf stream, salty water moving south pulling warm fresh water north thereby cooling our planet), well redirected it really, it's ALL relative. The gulf stream is why the north of Europe is so much warmer than say the latitudinally similar US. Beer and other wheat and barley beverages are so popular in those parts due to that climate regime. Climate, like geology, is a long term process, and carbon is only half the story. But as temps go up, the extreme weather patterns will as well, and warm is a relative term, but globally, the earth has been trending warmer for last 18 to 20 thousand years, the next 2000 will be the tell tail in terms of our local climate impact. If I could divorce politics and fox news from the climate debate I would, suffice to say that it's 3 parts natural, and 1 part human (at least that is what the majority of real research has shown) and in there lies the debate. Sorry to geek out on you guys about this, I've been a geologist and environmental scientist for the past decade, and it sorta just leaks out sometimes. -B

If climate change heads in the direction scientist are predicting, Europe and the UK can expect more of this in the future. But, wow, that is an amazing picture, I'd be interested to know from our UK friends how many times they remember seeing this happen in their lifetime?

Whoops, forget the trackir question. I was locked in the shift f1 view. Now I have the full deal! I'd love to fly with you inimigo, i'll keep my eye out for ya. -Behemoth

Inimigo, do you use Trackir? I have the ultrapack and I can't seem to get true 6 degrees of freedom. I can get roll but no z or zoom or lean. Has anyone got this working on 1946, cd version? Thanks in advance. On a side note do you play war-clouds? -Behemoth

Welcome slowfinger, love playing with ya. -b

Awesome, sign me up, I miss the carrier ops maps we did a few months back. One suggestion though, can the fuel be extended? With two "drop" tanks on that thing, that short little hop shouldn't have use even a tenth of the fuel it showed it did on the fuel bar. -B

Wherever you decide to put it, keep it away from Halo!

I'm 38, I resemble a lot of that article. I just thought I was a retard... books still out on that. I do need to work on hand/eye coordination. -Behemoth
