I'll be updating more tomorrow.

I'm running a little behind this morning.
Sent Emails to WP & Batty via registered site email.
As soon as I get done scanning and writing up the html I'll post a direct link here. 8)

I'll mail the initial two I think apply to WP and the double cone one to Batty, the rest I'll FTP with a webpage to my website after I scan them. That will delay WP least. 8)

Slept off the day. Happens when I get under 3 hours sleep for too many days in a row. I'll be getting home from work about 8:30 AM and will have all scanned and posted by 10 AM. Stay tuned.

Thank you so very much for that link to the drawings of the diamond cuts. That was a HUGH help...Thank you, thank you, thank you... :) Found the Book. After I get a couple hours sleep, I'll scan the images. Found 2 that might be what everyone is looking for. One is basically a flattened double cone...

Diamonds were originally valued because they're pretty and very durable. Their value increased because of demand, and economic need to support their valuation. It's a bit silly that something that's newer, prettier and more durable would have less value than something that's older and natural. I ju...

I personally will think of the teacher getting punched.


That being said, Hope things are clear flying of late AF, no misquitos.


I wonder how many layers of bureaucracy that IP will have to pass through before it's banned.

Though, Level Head is more knowlegeable about it than I am, Moller http://www.moller.com/ is talking about using Wankel Rotary engines for their Skycar. I really want a skycar. With road times of 4.5 hours to Sydney, 4 hours to Canberra, 8 hours to Melbourne and 10 hours to Brisbane, it makes sense...

Did you know that the two piece ladies' swimsuit was named after the site of the early H-bomb tests? Scott (It obstructs my view of Venus) Kellogg Yes, but did you know that women apparently competing in athletic games in the Roman empire also wore a similar one made of leather? :D Alhough we don't...

An acquaintance of mine over at Renderosity recently constructed a poseable 3D model of an upright player piano, then coded a Python script that processes MIDI music files to generate piano animation data. That's what I first thought they did with these Animusic sequences, but then quickly figured ...

Or maybe I just spent too much time living in Corpus Christi with all the sand and palm trees... Maybe just too much time in the sun :wink: Naw, couldn't happen. It's too hard to be angsty enough when wearing anything that colorful. :wink: I had a hawaiian shirt that was black with blue tropical fl...

PIPES!

err.... exhaust pipes. looks like a scooter without them.

YEOW!!! $40.00 per half pound of Blue Mountain Blend? Ohhh...I'm sorry, most of you folks here probably don't know that Beth, The White Guardian comes from the Blue Mountain Range. [/url].
