    Update: I also had Winamp open. I closed everything, used EndItAll to make sure everything that could be was dead. I still have the same problem.

A conservative christian bisexual. How's that for strange?quote> Well, how strange it I would depend on what flavor of Christianity we're talking about. Not every branch believes in the whole "homosexuality is a choice, question it and you can be cured" thing. The catholic church, for instance, recognizes that being gay is not a choice, it's something you're born with and stuck with. But what it goes on to say is that if you find yourself to be in that position that you've been called upon by god to leave a life of chastity since you can't be intimate without being sinful. In other words, being gay is something you have no control over, it's having gay sex that's sinful. Of course, being bisexual is different from being gay in that you're not fundamentally shut off from leading a straight, "normal" lifestyle. If a bisexual guy marries a woman and starts a family, no one would have any idea he wasn't straight unless he told them. Then again, there are bisexual people who choose to go down the same sex path instead. Classic example: Elton John.quote> I'm Methodist, so it's probably not a big deal. "Open hearts, open doors, open minds" and all that. I do want a (female) wife and children, I just am attracted to men, too.
  4. Render problem

    Thanks for the quick reply. I'll have to make sure everything is closed when I get home from work this afternoon.
  5. Render problem

    When I render a region, either from the ingame import or from SC4Mapper/SC4Terraformer, I get black boxes behind each city. I don't change what I do and sometimes it happens, but sometimes it doesn't. See the picture below. http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/6752/cimingcountythumbaz2.jpg

    7. What is the cost of 40 boards 12 inches wide and 16 ft. long at $20 per meter? quote> If by meter they mean board-foot (1 board foot is 1in. thick by 12 in. wide by 1 ft. long), assuming a 1 inch thick board (16-ft. 1X12): 40*16 ft. = 640 board ft. 640*20 = $1280

    Almost. I remember the whole thing. I almost lost the use of two fingers in a shop class accident. Have you ever put a car on its roof?

    Ignore most of my previous comment. I need to do more than skim over the other comments. Again, good job!

    Nice BAT! Think of the "windows" as the lead or iron strips that go between panels of colored glass.

    Date: 1/26/2006 11:40:06 PM Author: mcarch By 2050 Omaha, NE -Omaha will merge with Lincoln (45 miles) -There will be over 1 million people living within a 50 mile radius -Our Interstate Systems Should be done being widened (but I doubt it - they're always behind) -Hopefully we allow Gambling in the State to bring in some Tax Dollars (instead of taxing people to death) -2009- Our 3rd Tallest Building will be completed (32 floors) -Hopefully our proposed pedestrian bridge over the Missouri will be completed (hopefully) quote> Dammit! I was going to say the exact same thing about Omaha and Lincoln, although I believe they will stay separate entities like Dallas/Ft. Worth or Minneapolis/St. Paul. A large international airport will be built near the town of Greenwood, NE (roughly halfway between Lincoln and Omaha). Tommy Frasier will have been the state's first black Governor. The Unicameral will still exist and Ernie Chambers will have filibustered 75% of the bills to be heard. Finally, idiotic (state) Senator-What's-Her-Name still will be trying to destroy the town of Ashland.
