Thanks Gaieus Yes it's from my email already being harvested by bots. OLM my web host does have a paid subscription to a better spam killer but I wanted to see if I could find a free solution.

@unknownuser said: mm I like your ideas... a race track seems incredibly boring to me... sorry guys. What about modelling a city; it could work very well with your 'work together'-thing: everyone gets assigned a lot, and (maybe) some basic planning guidelines. But maybe it's "overdone" too... Still. I like it. Every city is unique and every building in this imaginary city will be unique as well. The city idea, is a great idea!

So nobody wants a nomination? [edit] I got a response, PM me if you want a nomination.

I agree with you Anssi. I trying to get a look at the interior seating arrangement, it's suppose to be like the Mc F1

Thank you, solo. You gotta be fast, people. Its a flash in the pan.

That's cool. looking forward to the renders on that. As a personal ekranoplan vehicle I'd go for this (Aquaglide!): [image: Aquaglide_2.jpg] If you're looking for more heres a site with video and more images, including orthographic: http://www.vincelewis.net/ekranoplan.html

Hi Chris, Thanks so much for the information! The Sony Bloggie looks like a pretty good choice, except for the fact that it has no way to attatch an external microphone (according to the reviewers on Amazon.com). One of them said that the Kodak zi8 has a microphone jack--I was wondering if you knew anything about this camera? Thank you, PinkSkink

Excellent Dale It just about says it all.

Existing customers can login to their customer gateway to get discounted upgrade pricing. I checked and a v1 to v2 upgrade is $277 (US). It's $172 (US) to upgrade node licenses. I think I'd rather have Thea so I'll upgrade only if Spain wins the whole thing. ::It's still less money to buy Thea with 2 node licenses and sketchup plugin::

Tobobo, The 4th isn't so much a day when reenactments occur in general - though you can find some related to colonial life at historic sites such as the local one linked here http://www.fortroberdeau.org/ The Civil War reenactors are usually pretty fanatical and typically only gather on the specific sites / dates of battles. A popular one is for Picket's Charge @ Gettysburg - which took place on July 3, 1863. The proximity to July 4th is why I made mention of Gettysburg in my original email. I have been there for a reenactment some years back - they have my respect as most all wear historically accurate full uniforms, which were wool. It is usually warm and very humid (High 90's and high humidity this year) then. Gettysburg was pivotal in the war and Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address which was delivered in November of that same year for the dedication of the "Soldiers National Cemetery" is a big part of American history. It is a good read - one which I wish today's politician's would refer to more often. Some links on Gettysburg you may find interesting are below. http://www.nps.gov/gett/index.htm http://www.gettysburgfoundation.org/ http://www.civilwarhome.com/gettysbu.htm http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Gettysburg_Address Bytor

Why not something about my findings for animation in SketchUp. That way I could get both an invite and a paid travel.

Being Welsh (although from Cardiff, so not very Welsh), I would say that the people are different too, particularly in South Wales. More open and friendly, and very quick to start a conversation, particularly in the valley towns. I think you always find that in a people brought up on difficult and dangerous work, such as coal mining and steel making. Most of my father's brothers were coal miners, and many with biblical names (uncle Aaron, for example) I'm glad my thread has brought back many happy memories. Kind regards, Bob

Reminds me of Officer Crabtree on Allo Allo. Check him out on You Tube, very funny character.

Thanks for posting TIG. I enjoyed my visit to La Sagrada Familia and viewing the various models in the crypt
