after trying a bunch of these out, i found that Remote Selector (on the videohelp site) is definately the best. It's tiny (around 250k) and works in the background. I was able to play movies from regions 1, 2, and 3 without doing anything but turning the prog on. It can be set to start up...

it's like that for me too, MM. i've been browsing the board for a good half hour, and not a single thread i've checked today hasn't had a white strip dividing each post. it's very distracting.

well, i'm calm now. Everyone i know in the affected areas were able to make it to higher ground. It's mainly the poor fishermen who were hit hard. the devastation is unimaginable over there.

Talinthas Shadeslayn (dragonlance character) Male Silvanesti elf Rogue/Shadow dancer (align TN) Age- well over 500 years old. Tal is a rather reclusive and quiet sort, being one of the few mortals to live through three ages of Krynn. Born approximatly 100 years before the fall of Istar and...

none of my family was personally affected, but my neighbors are from Chennai (madras), and that area was hit by some pretty severe flooding, so we're waiting for contact from folks over there.

i was responding to the initial slur. pkitty edited it out of both the original and my reply. Thanks for that, by the way. I was really offended, especially during an emergency like this.

was this absolutly necessary?

Only the very Southern tip on the eastern side of india was affected. Sri Lanka was hit much, much harder, and really absorbed a lot of the blow before it got to mainland India. Joe and Suzi are many thousands of miles inland to the north and west, so they have nothing to worry about.

I just started it, and it very much feels like a book out of the early 19th century. It takes a lot of skill to write like that. I'm not nearly far enough in to decide what i think of it though.

It's really cool. The story revolves around this castle and it's inhabitants. The king has been taken hostage by a kingdom to the south, leaving his children in charge. Meanwhile, the fae realms to the north have become active again and are starting to agitate and move southwards. The world...

awesome =) i wonder if our last entries are still eligible?

Now you know what would be cool? A campaign on this world where the object was to create a moon for this planet. Perhaps the moon acted as a lock or a gate blocking off the nether planes, and was destroyed in a giant demonic ritual early on. Since then, the world has been open to assaults and...

Goa has some really beautiful churches and architecture, and a lot of great music. It's also really really touristy. I've never actually been, since it's far south of my own cultural homeland of Gujarat, but a lot of folks i know from Europe have gone there. This is definately the best time...

Murlynd's spoon (the thing that makes endless oatmeal)- feed the world =) Decanter of endless water would be great too. But really, i still want cool things, like the rings of inviso or flight. but the ring of tongues is definately where it's at. I'm a linguist at heart =)

when i first signed on to the TSR online chat, i had just finished reading Eddings' Elenium and Tamuli series, and really liked the character of Talon. Now, Talon is a cool name, but it's awfully generic, and not at all a cool dragonlancy elf name, which is what i was aiming for. So, like all...

do these ancient rules that diaglo refers to exist online anywhere? Being a relative child compared to him (having only started around the early part of 2e), i'd like to see these historical documents so i can have some slight clue as to what the hell he is talking about =) seriously, AD&D...

generally i listen to albums, easier to burn and all. currently- DJ Krush- Jaku V.A- Punk Goes Pop Iron Horse- Fade to Bluegrass: Bluegrass covers of Metallica VA- Trance Divas Neurotic Fish- Les Chansons Neurotique -- and individual tracks i've been looping- 00Agents- Solo Mission...

Dragonlance for life, yo. Especially with the wonderous joy that is the new War of the Lance hardback.

well, Christmas co-opts a pagan holiday that took place around the same time, and Hanukah commemorates an event, and as such probably commemorates the date of their war. Diwali is most definately a harvest festival, but that coincides with other harvest fests like Halloween more than it does...

yeah, just don't read the epilog in book 3 and you'll be fine stopping there. But for me, i've really enjoyed the story, but the last few books have been frustrating, if anything because they take forever to come out and don't actually progress the story too much. However, if you read them...
