posted that a while back somewhere...not sure where. They even have a plugin to fly a sim plane over your hometown coords.

I work for an Air Charter Company and we use it all the time to track flights. It's not as accurate as WebAsd, but it's within 15 minutes...so I'm fine with that. Just something I noticed on your screenshot and was curious.

Can't kill what ya can't hit... and Vice Versa

I swear when I read that it read, "It's not so Bald...." Happy B-day.....Foobs!

I'm sure Mark Hamil has a spare. I'm also sure there was more then 1 used in the movie. I'm more curious is they are going to incase it somehow so normal space radiation doesn't absorb or deteriorate the artifact. And yes, IMHO, you could say that it is an artifact if it IS the original saber. I'm also confident that there will be a TRACKER website to watch it's celestial path over time. MAybe they'll embed it with a beacon? LOL

Yeah...LOL....close only counts in handgrenades and nuclear weapons.

What do you track on FlightAware.com?

and I thought the saying went like this: "Common Sense tells us that there's no such thing as common sense."

I had a pilot write up Nav #2 as Inoperative when it was turned off. Brilliant!

I just tell USAFBLT what I want and he does it all for me... It's amazing how much time that frees up for me... Muhahahaaaahaa Fates

what format are the pictures in? jpg, bmp?

I sat down last night and was completely drawn into this documentary/interview/history lesson on HDNet. The Fog of War: Eleven Lessons from the Life of Robert S. McNamara (former Sec. of Defense for LBJ) was an excellent film that I wish everyone here could see. You can read more about it here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0317910/ The "Eleven Lessons" listed in the film are as follows: * 1. Empathize with your enemy. * 2. Rationality will not save us. * 3. There's something beyond one's self. * 4. Maximize efficiency. * 5. Proportionality should be a guideline in war. * 6. Get the data. * 7. Belief and seeing are both often wrong. * 8. Be prepared to reexamine your reasoning. * 9. In order to do good, you may have to engage in evil. * 10. Never say never. * 11. You can't change human nature.

The talk is that if they do come back, it may likely be Las Vegas

Trying to run the video via the mobo at the same time thru a vid card is a function of the bios. Usually one is turned off, while the other is turned on. In your case, the onboard video is turned off to allow the external video to do everything.. If your video card has multiple video outs, then you can run both monitors, if it does not, then your are stuck running a single monitor.

You are correct. I was not there for that race. I was there for the Inaugural race and 1 other. I'm glad I was not there for the last race....what a bunch of whining asses. Indianapolis hosted the 3 largest outdoor sporting events in the world until F1 pulled out. I'm sure there will be one helluva attendance for MotoGp. There is nothing in the world better then sitting in the paddox area during the opening events and finish of the Indianapolis 500. There are 250,000+ in attendance and the electricity is incredible.

Just remember that you may have problems selling the house if they put a lien on it.....and trust me they will from the sounds of it.
