You should run out and patent that idea Bruce. They'll patent anything. I just learned that my company actually held a patent for standing in line.

Lies!!!!!

The USSR held the patent for that one.

This allergy stuff is frightening, btw. I will not claim anything for myself, as I am a stereotypical "nice Jewish boy" and all the nerdiness, dorkiness, bad eyesight and sinus trouble that entails. But she grew up in a rural setting, where any possible hay fever would have come from actual hay. And she had never had allergies until about 3 years after arriving in the US. WTF is going on here?!

I was grieved by allergies for many years. I learned two years ago that most people have low Vitamin D levels, which causes the immune system to be ineffective against allergies (and other bad stuff). I started taking 6,000 I/U of Vit D3 every day and now allergies are a minor annoyance at worst. Vit D is not expensive...Sam's has the cheapest I've seen.

I had much more severe allergies both as a child and in CA versus what I have here. Part of it is maturation, the other part specific allergens in the air.

While it's true that a large number of people in modern life are probably borderline deficient (and many medical groups recommend upping Vitamin D for most people above what they are now), I would argue that the connection to atopy (inhalant allergy) control is tenuous at best. I wouldn't go more than about 2x USRDA on Vitamin D therapy-not one you want to megadose...

So....does that mean it works or it doesnt?

Dude. Different trees, different pollen, different stimuli to (over) stimulate one's respiratory tree. You want no allergies? Move to the desert-problem solved. You wanna live amongst trees, flowers and vegetation? If you're a nice Jewish boy (or a Catholic, or whatever), you get allergies.

I know plenty of people who arnt bothered by allergies. Lucky bastards.

Exciting day lined up. Getting ready to leave for the hockey rink where my son has a lesson, and then it's back home to clean out the garage.

You actually made me curious, so I wen't to have a look as well.

My Wife is headed to UNC Children's Hospital with our Grandson. They are having a reunion of kids who were in the children's ICU. As much fun as that sounded like it would be I thought I'd play some AE and then watch the race at Talladega.

Hey, Chris! Old or new company?

Have you relocated the super secret hidden base yet?

My new company. As I understand it though that patent was revoked.

I'm in a temporary secret facility looking for my new super secret hidden base. They're rather hard to come by you know.

I'm not talking about myself. I'm talking about people like "Who Cares" and "Castor Troy" and all the other whiners and losers who spend more time picking the game apart for what they think are "flaws" than playing it.

Alright, I didn't think an honest answer was really necessary, but here goes: I remember when games used to be for FUN. Still do. That time is today, was yesterday and will be tomorrow. I have a blast with these games. WiTP:AE has captured my imagination like few others-it's an incredible romp.

If a game isn't fun then it isn't really a game at all. Some people like to just pick fault with stuff, either because they need to prove they know so much or because they weren't part of the team who designed the game.

I've always felt that whining and bitching openly are counter-productive if someone actually does think something needs changing.

Of course they usually remember things like that and the next game can be bad......
