I'm the same as Eldred, forgetting to breathe. I also have a tendancy to
grit and grind my teeth. Damn it makes your jaw ache.

Yeah, I've done that as well. Finish a race, then wonder, "Why do my eyes
hurt???"

My problem is the smokes. I have to leave them in another room, or I could
go through a whole pack in a single RASCAR race :)

That is why God, in his infinate wisdom and mercy, created Nicotine Gum.

Personally I am shocked..SHOCKED I tell you, to read that anyone in a
group so enlightened as RAS is a smoker. What next? Is someone going to
admit to liking Tomatoes or some other vile natural poison?

Tomatoes are poisonous?... Uh-oh...

I thought EVERYONE knew that. Why else would they be so YUCKY tasting?
Think of this: They have fossil records of tomatoe plants that date back
to the times of the dinosaurs. It doesn't take dummy to figure out that
the tomatoe plants are still here and the dinosaurs are NOT!! Sure
scientists can say it got to cold, or some giant-huge space rock slammed
into the Planet and instantly killed all the dino's. But I beleive they
are missing the most OBVIOUS explanation. Plant eating Dino's ate
tomatoes, Plant eating dino's eventually died. Meat Eaters either ate the
infected Plant Eaters or scavenged the carcasses...Goodbye Thunder Lizards.
It's only the Mega-Corparations that have economic interests that keep
the truth from being told.
Secondly, any good Ultima player will remember what the most deadly
natural poison is: Nightshade. What is in the same plant family as
Nightshade????? you guessed it. the Tomatoe! Make sure your next of kin
sends funeral notices to RAS..We'll make a collection and send flowers.

>What is GPL and where can I find it?

It's the Gay Pirates League.. We meet on irc.shadowworld.net on
channel #GPL. You don't need to be a gay pirate to attend, but try to
remember to at least bring an eye patch. Captain Powell gets a little
crazy when he's had too much Havana Boy so don't mind his awkward
advances.

It's the same difference as with CD's and LP's..
That big GPL box looks so much better on my shelf than that tiny GPL
dvd-box next to it.. and the old box has the manuals in printed form,
with the dvd-release they are on the cd.
