Why the Hell can't we refine our own Tar Sands Oil in Canada? Are Canadians technically inept? Are we intimidated because we are too politically correct to transport oil over Native land? Why do we need to transport Oil to the US via pipeline for processing? Have you ever heard anyone in the media either CNN or CBC, ask those questions? And just in case your still thinking of saving the planet ..... forget it!, its over! No one is concerned about consuming GMO's or consuming Seafood from the Pacific Oceann.....stay tuned. Fukushima is destroying the Eco system of the Planet for the next 100 years and more, forget about Climate Change or a potential pipeline leak, they will pale in comparison.

Hi Chuck, hi folks. Thanks and best regards.

@krisidious said: Nice... So I guess I'm safe to upgrade. I didn't know there had been a few versions. Well Kris I am still running the one you just sent me so I can't vouch for the newest. I still don't like the fact that I had to go to all the trouble. Makes sense that if you are pointing everything back to 2013 it should work. Oh well.

What was that an energy saving commercial?

Reminds me of this printer, a little bit less glue and there it is...

@ben ritter said: XnView used to be able to display thumbnails of skp files. I have version XnView MP v0.61 and there is no such display anymore. Anyone know if it's still possible? I had both on my PC. Both worked until update. Now MP shows 3DS and Standard doesn't. Standard shows SKP & SKB old file but takes days to creat new ones after save. MP doesn't HDRs show for old fies but not nes. Then eventually appear. Crazy> Note: Noticed i XNVIEW open when I have SU open and I save a large file it causes problem such as creating a 0.skp file name, 1.skp... Sent report but no fix. Don't recomend keeping open if rendering either.

Yes indeed a good thing The more technology advances, the more privacy infringement we see taking place.

There was a great story on our national TV broadcasted show "Landline" of a macadamia nut (indigenous nut to Aust) processor who found the nut shells that are so rich in oil (as is the gorgeous nut!! 70% fat) that the burning of the shell produced such energy that this waste could power the plant and the local regional town! The beauty here also was that they then returned a larger part of this win in paying the grower a higher price for the delivered weight as being for both the nut and shell yield! BTW - I'm not certain if you guys OS have had the opportunity to try these nuts, but trust if you like nuts I'd prioritise sourcing some! Yuuuuummmmyyyyy!

I think the problem with most font making applications is the limitation of their scripting for kerning! They seem to generally do a fairly poor job. You can straight away see the problems with many free fonts. That said I think Layout's engine has problems reading font scripts. To see this open any application and type a few words then do the same with layout and you will note the difference. Could be enhanced if layout had "optical" kerning and not just "metrics".

Thanks for that info Andrew - I was really taken aback when I saw it. On the other hand perhaps Sketchup can now get back to what it was originally intend to do, be a cheap, easy to use 3D modeling program for architects and designers. cheers john

yeah. .. that's pretty cool. .. but Chuck Norris wouldn't have to use a space suit. he could hold his breath.

At least the money is going to comedy and not to buying another politician.

How 'bout that top of the list folding proteins number crunch thing? Haven't you been just dying for that? Seems like if it was tied into a render farm somehow, that would be useful. But, I clearly don't know much about that area.

Wow... Great to see some "behind the scene"/"How it was made"... I LOVED that movie and was blown away by it... Thanks for sharing this...!

I am going to close the survey now, thank you everyone that responded, the information you gave me is going to be a great help. If you have any questions I'm still happy to answer them at the email in the OP.
