SIRCA (http://www.astro.su.se/~magnusg/sirca_moonmap/)

Very cool interactive map of the surface of the moon in infrared.  


***Must have Macromedia Flash 6 player.***

Very cool,

I'm thinking about buying some real estate there... what better place to chill out?

OT: Ahhh Macromedia, the ultimate spyware program.  If you want to see something else interesting, search "Macromedia" in the Windows registry.  There is a flag you can turn off, but it defaults to on, which tells the utility to gather statistics about what you are doing on your computer.
There is even a date in there which shows the last time the stats were transmitted to Macromedia.

I am not sure, but I believe it is the only spyware program endorsed by Microsoft.  Just FYI.

Just another example of colluding going on right under your nose

If my shotgun can handle them propagators it can handle the dang pesky colluders.

Skuzz can you elaborate on how to turn this off please?

Jackal, there should be some kind of large button on your PC, if you press that one you'll be safe. if that fails, use your pump action shotgun and make a huge hole in the fuzebox.

Skuzzy hearts a world like gofer... perhaps switching to the french MINITEL would be something he'd like too. :lol

I prefer "Minicom" myself.  :D

And Saw,..what the heck were you drinking when you made that post.  I cannot figure out what you are trying to say.  "Skuzzy hearts a world like a gofer"  What the heck is that?  Rap?

Jackal, I cannot give any details about it.  I gave enough information so those who are comfortable with registry editing know what to do.  It's one of those dangerous things to do and I do not feel like being held liable for any damage to others system.  Dang litigous nature of our society and all.

I'm on a "water only" week, as last week was pretty heavy on the alcohool side... that must be it!

Oh yeah.  That water stuff will kill you.  But first it will degrade brain functionality to the level where you can converse with Bubba and actually understand him.  Scary stuff.

Thanks Saw. The big ole button just sits there and looks at me, so I went for your #2 tech tip, only I had to use the PC tools I have available, which is my trusty double barrel (Bessie). I couldn`t find any gizmo or whatchamacallit marked fuzebox. I just aimed in the general direction of what I thought was the trouble area. It seems to have worked real well. I am posting on my second computer due to the other one seems to be booting up rather slowly. Probably the configuration changes.
