Dan will see me and scream, push the "UberKruX Alarm" located in every hallway, and tell Sid to activate the eject pods and the nerve gas. And i will die, crawling for the door, with a civ3 cd in my hand.

Probably not...He probably playes civ3 all day and night, and has people come and bring him food.

Re: Direct Contact Inflate your Upload Space

Yeah, I live about 15-20 minutes away, though I seriously doubt Firaxis will be terribly interested to visit at any length with just an old Civ-Freak like myself.

Maybe I'll drop by sometime this comming week and see if I can reason with them

Any suggestions about a method of insertion?

P.S. To any Firaxians lurking out there. Be assured that you are safe, no extra security required

Me: "Mushroom?"
Sid: "Really! Heck yeah I ordered a pizza!"
Guy at door: *grumbling* "I 'always' end up paying for food"

*Mission Impossible Theme starts playing in the background*

*I push a secret button that makes the pizza box emit a sleeping gas and put on a gas mask*

Me: "Hahahahhahaha, now I can get a copy of Civ 3!"
Sid: "Why is everyone falling asleep, YOU'RE ALL GOING TO GET FIRED!"
Me: "Uhhh, you're not falling asleep?"
Sid: "Of course not, I don't sleep, I'm a cyborg."
Me: "Okaaaaay, will you give me a copy of Civ3?"
Sid: "NO! Now go back and buy thirty more copies of Civ2 and SMAC."
Me: "OK, master......"

Nah, the Firaxians have probably stopped reading this thread long ago.
This thread is a result of them having us wait to long for Civ 3

edit: While it technically isn't correct to use "" for the #include, it isn't treated as a vB taf, and does still compile, atleast for my compiler.
