    Hi Todd, good to see you here, too. By the way, your scene rename script is an excellent addition to my plugin arsenal; thanks for that! Hi will! My wife and I have been in Whitefish for almost three years now and we really like it here. We actually moved here for the skiing, as Whitefish gets a lot more snow, usually, than Crested Butte, Colorado, where we lived for 9 years. We also love to ski Fernie, and I have been meaning to get up to Castle mountain one of these days (I hear it is really fantastic). We have just suffered through a vicious heat wave and now there are forest fires all around us. Town has been so choked with smoke that you can't even see Big Mountain sometimes. It is really quite miserable. I have been up to Calgary a few times and we always have a great time up there. We have a couple of good friends who live there so it is nice to have a place to stay. We should grab a beer, or two, next time we are in each other's neck of the woods.

    I've had good success on the PC with both Camtasia Studio (multiple output formats) and Instant-Demo (flash output only). Todd

    Yes - but they are only minor differences which would be recognised on install surely. Steinberg sells more programs than sketchup, I'm sure they've considered this.

    Hi all. Once again, thanks for the insight. I fully respect the amount of time and money any company or individual puts into their IP, and it is only right that they should protect that. 5 years research - wow! This is why I always use genuine software (which is often swimming against the tide). I've been on a seminar arranged by the UK patent office for small business advisors, so I'm pretty clued up in the main, but it's not always the same over the pond. The Formica example is interesting but it doesn't apply IMO. They let the word become associated with something not their product. SU is SU and no-one's trying to label "sketchy" software in general as "sketchup". Looks like the way forward is to build up the site so that G can see what I'm doing and if it's a competitor or a benefit to them. I think it'll be a benefit which is why I was surprised at their stance. Kris may have hit the nail on the head with his comment: "and of course if you ask Google what they think, they are always 100% of the time going to say no, and protect their trademark or copyright." In the meantime I'll keep the URL parked.

    I think I would want John Williams to write a personal score for me. Something very variable to cover all manner of social and emotional situeations. Or maybe whoever it was who wrote the score for Star Trek the Next Generation. I love that score. At any rate I would want something heroic and epic. Maybe it would transform me accordingly.

    @unknownuser said: I'm a little worried about their progress. Unless their idea becomes an official part of a Rhino release, I don't think there's much chance of this becoming a professional-grade tool. It's a sepparate company that develops the plugin so you will be worried forever. In the mean time Ive tried the alpha demo. Looks realy promissing. If they arent greedy when they release, this may be the one for me.

    I don't know if 'blinded' is the correct word. The oral traditions of storytelling and songs certainly must go right back to the earliest days of humanity and i believe those traditions continue through to this day. Part of being human is to communicate with stories. Some of the stories we all know may have had their germination many thousands of years ago. For instance, many people believe that traditional biblical stories evolved to incorporate enough of older pagan stories that the 'new' stories had a timeless familiarity to them. That would help to communicate the message of the new story and make it more believable and memorable. Broad themes like love, betrayal, pride, anger, hope and fear must have been talked about as long as there have been people. It makes sense that the really good stories developed over time are still with us in some form today even if hard to recognize. If we could go back and visit the caveman days I think we might be surprised by the familiarity of many of their campfire stories. They might understand some of our stories too. Regards, Ross

    Good article Solo. I use dreamlinux on my old laptop, it was easy to install and cost me nothing. It installed with Blender, Gimpshop, Inkscape and a few other design apps. I've added Cycas for cad work and would have to say it's a very nice lean system. Open Office is excellent too. I've had no problems transfering files to windows or commercial programs. There seems to be plenty more 3d/cad apps in development for linux at the moment: http://archimedes.incubadora.fapesp.br/portal/project/archimedes-project/ http://avocado-cad.sourceforge.net/ http://www.octree.de/ This is a controversial article about a design lecturer who switched all his design students from OSX to Ubuntu and replaced all the courses proprietry software with open source alternatives. It makes for a good read, and the following comments raise some good arguments for and against. http://www.linux.com/articles/52758?&depth=5&order=1&sortby=3&render=flat

    @sorgesu said: So how do they stop? Susan, You ask really funny questions at times! Did you not notice the parachute on their back? They just pull the rip cord when they get down to a certain level and have a gentle landing if they are lucky. These guys are nuts! Just one good gust of wind and they would find themselves splattered all over those cliffs ..... ouch! Mike

    Something we affectionately call "ugly days" No work, house work or otherwise. Jammies all day (brushing teeth is not required, but requested) No cooking, only ordered food, preferrably pizza. Snuggling, watching movies all day. Maybe a nap here and there. Optimal for disposable plates and utensils to be used, but if not dishes can wait until tomorrow. I long for an "ugly day"........
