Glad to see someone else is still on board with this. I think I'll keep it running for a while with a selection of my favorite quotes. I invite others to do the same.

Not at all! The most important question is "What is the meaning of life?"As for JJ's *ahem*, 'riddle,' according to relativity, time slows as you near the speed of light. If you extrapolate based on the curve you get from a graph of the rate of time deceleration, you can see that if you were moving at the speed of light, time would stop completely, and so no, your headlights would not work.

Wouldn't your mass grow infinitely large at the same time? So even if time wouldn't stop, the light couldn't escape your own gravity...NP: Out of Africa (John Barry)

Also a valid point. In either case, the headlights would not work.

But if you'd like to learn more about the actual brain teasing, you'll have to ask a physician.

No problem. Oh, by the way, JJ, could you bring your own anaesthetic? All I have is Tylenol, and my pizza cutter's not all that sharp any more.

Just noticed you can still go to the original ? for PeterK thread (well, to the crippled remains) by using the link in the first post of this thread. Check out the beginning of page #9 there, and witness the wisdom of Chris Kinsinger!

It's the Chicago Symphony that was interested. I don't know what the deal is currently, but as of 2 weeks ago they said they were STILL interviewing people for it.oh well. Their loss.

Microsoft is retiring that fantastic little paper clip from their next release of Office.

That clip has driven me mad more than once. When I close a program, I expect it to end immediately. I don't want it to disappear in a cool little 30 second animation.Also, he used to pop up every time I pressed the F1 key, instead of a simple help.
