I can hang with the best when talking about web or database programming, but particle physics? It's been 25 years since two or three university physics classes I took.
Played a couple games of Pandemic w/On The Brink expansion. We didn't use any of the expansion game-styles though, just added the roles. Normal mode.
For some reason in our first game, we got clobbered by outbreaks with 3 epidemics played relatively early. When they get clustered like that...
I suppose we'll have to agree to disagree. It seems all your complaints are about looks. People often have very different images in their head with the way characters in the books appear to them.

I am hoping this Thursday to finally get in a good 4-5 player Game of Thrones, Board Game 2nd Ed, or REX: Final Days of an Empire. I also finally got down the revised rules to Tannhauser (and the equipment cards are essential!) and that looks like fun too. We were going to play it a couple of...
