Asher, tell me about it.. I'm not a big fan of that stuff either. But there's always good demand for them and I figure they make good money. But tellign you the truth, I've never really had a real job with databases and I'm already pretty much fed up with them. But I can be motivated

Xenons are much brighter and use even less energy than Halogens. They're the kind of bulbs used for headlights in high-end cars now, they usually have almost a blueish tone because they're so incredibly white.

They also barely diffuse at all. That is, it's a very, very acurate light -- very good for headlights. If you look at halogen headlights versus xenon, the xenon have a very clear line where light is being projected and where it's not, halogens have a "blending" zone, and incandescents just kinda shine everywhere.

Xenon lights, in short, are brighter & whiter, use less energy, and diffuse less.

The concept is exactly the same but the bulb is filled with a more exotic (read: expensive) gas. It provides a slightly blue light.

It's actually the rogue heat technician from Terry Gilliam's Brazil.

telling you the truth though, I'm visually challenged, I mean, computer animation is not the thing for me. I'm just handicapped in things like that. I draw as good as I was able when I was 8 years old. And I was horrible back then too. Even my notes are so horrible looking, that no one can understand them but me. And yes, I believe if you are doing something with animation, graphics etc, you need to be artistically gifted, which I'm not. I just crunch numbers ..

Anyway, maybe I should just follow my heart and become a pornstar.

Actually, you only have to find as much proof as those who claim that he doesn't exist.

Since you can't prove a negative, they can't prove that God doesn't exist.

Therefore, since you can't prove that God doesn't exist, you have to assume that he might. And if you believe that he might, he might as well exist.

Conclusion: God exists because you can't prove that he doesn't.
