If there are no precious resources involved that threaten the global economy, the UN seem to be totally inert. They don't react to thugs until their atrocities have escalated to near cataclysmic proportions and can't be ignored anymore. Probably too much redtape. Radovan Karavich got away with it for years in Yugoslavia.

3 series? lol

i might try that

Monster smilie edit: its gone now, although it was very impressive. I dont think google releases any details of the number of licenses it sells, and it would be pretty hard to get details for the free licenses, as it would probably involve surveying lots of people to get an idea of the distribution of SU. So in answer to your question: No.

I'm waiting on stuff from october and november... oh well, maybe i'll get the results for my last 3 exams at the same time! haha... fail, fail, fail..

Thanks Gaieus, In fact, some that were missing earlier this morning and I replaced, are back. I guess that when you look at a collection, what you see is just a search for items in that collection. I'll just have to learn not to panic when something is missing.

Nice!

@thomthom said: XnView read .skp files? Well it produces an image representation of the model file, my guess is it reads the image embedded in the file [by SketchUp] and not the geometry itself. So, in short, yes it does, but it's a qualified statement.

Hehe... Well, the can always use some pillars to hold the building of course. In a nearby shopping mall they preserved (and incorporated in the building) a whole big, public Roman bath. On another project I also worked, the Roman early Christian church was partly under a late Baroque, late 18th - early 19th century, three storey plebendary and chapters building so when we excavated it (and the protection building and visitors' centre was being built), they had to dig down to about 8-10 metres section by section to "undermine" the foundetions and fill it up with concrete. Well, surely it was a big project; about 13 K cubic metres and € 6 million spent over almost three years.

Years ago I mucked about with Softcad but didn't get much use out of it, I didn't find it as intuitive as it looked. But looking around the EdiCAD website they have upped their game a bit. I'm going to try out the new free version of Architech pc 2d for cad drawing as its parametric. I've just downloaded it this morning.

There are a couple of "ex-Hungarians" here actually

As this is sort of an international forum, which I frequent, I do want the Indian readers here to know that people in the US have not forgotten how other peoples showed solidarity with us after 911, and we feel sadness for the violence and suffering in Mumbai today. Also I was moved hearing how the citizens of Mumbai called for unity and restraint in this tense period. We don't get a very full picture of what it is like there, but we are following what we can. We hope peace and healing will prevail in Mumbai.

fool, you told me we would both be judges.
