I'm so stupid, I signed up and got the Zot.

THIS SITE IS ZOT!

GIMME A BRAKE ALREADY! YOU GUYS MUST BE THE BIGEST MORONS ON THE WORLD! THE BIGEST MORONS NEXT TO THAT SOFTWARE COMPANY I USED TO VISIT SIX YEARS AGO! OY YOY! YOY! YOY! YOY! YOY! YOY! YOY! YOY! EACH TIME I TRYED TO POST SOMETHING NO MATTER HOW SMART! NO MATTER HOW CONSERVATIVE! EVEN IF I BEND OVER BACK AND DO BACK FLIPS AND THEN BEND OVER FOR THAT DUMB LIBERAL WE UNFORTUNATELY ELECTED! EVEN IF SPELL CHECKER ARE WORKING I STILL GET THEN KICKED OFF!! THEN ZOTTED!! WHY? IS IT JUST BECAUSE I WRITE SO BRILLIANT? BOB RUNS THINGS HERE!? OKAY. OKAY. OKAY. OKAY. OKAY. MAEYBE PEEPLE LIKE JJFATE AND NOAH HORSEFLY IS ASKING FOR IT BUT WHAT ABOUT ME!

Unescorted? Some of the Dwarves will be glad to give people tours, but I'm still waiting for the last group that Richard Pickman took down there to return.

So you haven't quite figured out how to drown them permanently, huh?

*snort*

1st of all, I love your profile page and 2nd of all...I took the Pirates Name test. I'm Captain Mary Cash. I tried to post it like it said but nothing came up.

[Monkey Face]

I think the Dwarves are the least of our worries...it's the zombies and er...the uh...(please! don't make me say it!) *cringing* :oO

[Do not dub me shapka broham]

:(

Ben & Jerry's is good though.

Probably my favorite brand, except for one that-for some reason or other-I can't remember the name of at the moment.

[tiamat]

hello, Queen Kathy!

1) My profile has seen better days, but many thanks.

2) Talk to 'Face about houw to get your results to "stick". I stole that quiz from HEr, and I do not remember how it went.

Ordinary telescopes are somewhat limited by the new construction work which has been done recently. There is a section of dome arching over the entire castle grounds. This one-mile radius dome section is divided into sub-sections of similar shaped glass panels supported by metal bracing.

The viewing, therefore, is limited by the bracework, and the image is degraded by the thickness of glass in the dome. For those adventurous enough to chance it, it is possible to ascend the interior of the dome framework in maintenance shuttles, to achieve a reduction in the interference of the intervening glass.

Keep in mind, we will appreciate this thick glass once we are in outer space on our way to Mars, and our handheld or terrestrial telescopes will be of little use anyway. The entire castle enclosure will be turning around an overhead axis of rotation to give us artificial gravity at about one revolution per minute, and our telescopes will not be able to track anything.

For that reason, electronic telescopes have been emplaced fore and aft on the thrust ring, to give us an unimpeded view of the heavens after we ascend. (For the record, I am looking for volunteers to go out after we achieve exterior vacuum, to clean the seawater muck off the lower portion of the thrust ring. If you want to see your home planet again, you'd better line up!)

The image feeds from these telescopes will be available on various channels of the internal cable network. It will actually be possible to use our manual telescopes for star sightings as part of our alignment for astrogation, but it is tedious work.

It's not because I am not trying to drown them!

I keep saying things like , "Here! Catch", and then tossing anvils at them, but so far they have survived.

All they do is giggle, go under, come back up, (sans anvil) and then demand ice-cream.

27 in a row? Are you in Arizona?

I guess that's what I get for being sick...I've missed a lot of reconstruction of the reconstruction of the castle environs...

*sigh*

You know.... With a few extra Klicks of tether and a pair of entangled lasers, I think we can set up a seriously high resolution gravity wave dector to use as a form of "telescope". The inflight "spin" would be used to unreel the tether pods, calibrate the lasers, and any "vibration" or quantum flux should give us a read. Anything out there with a gravity well should be dectable in near realtime.

[Monkey Face]

YES!
I!
AM!!!!

I'm just like a lizard on a rock here...;o]

Highlight the box, click Edit, then Copy, then go to your posting area (wherever you want it copied to) click Edit, click Paste, and voila! You're done!

They changed it since I did it last so my name is different...but it's still me!

My pirate name is:

Bloody Anne Bonney

Every pirate lives for something different. For some, it's the open sea. For others (the masochists), it's the food. For you, it's definitely the fighting. You can be a little bit unpredictable, but a pirate's life is far from full of certainties, so that fits in pretty well. Arr!

Get your own pirate name from fidius.org.

We could use a "stationary" unit at the center of rotation, and three tethered units deployed between the pods, and we should be able to derive three-dimensional structure in the gravitational wave spectrum.

We could feed the information into the astrogation database, and display it in correlation with optical channels.

I think it would be advisable to have the kind of multi-spectral lasers that normally operate at relatively low wattage, but can be ramped up to appreciable power to overcome dust clouds or for other significant reasons.

They could then also be used for asteroid spectrographic analysis, among other things. Unless you'd prefer to sling a washing-machine at a comet?

Big family gathering in Wyoming last week with some relatives from 'Zona up there. They said the high for the day was about their daily low. I think they would have put on parkas if they'd brought 'em!
