| Hi Everybody, (URL) The following is my attempt to parallel my feelings about biology, learning, and teaching... while still building cool castle stuff.

| Hi Felix! (URL) That's nice buildings and a somehow impressive story, an ode to life. "Now, I write. Though people seldom read. I speak, though people seldom want to hear what I have to say. From time to time, I am called to the town hall for my (...) (21 years ago, 10-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

A question on the church door: I'm not familiar with that piece being used for a double door. I (...) (21 years ago, 10-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

I was suprised by that HP piece; its got hinges on both sides so you can put on a double door. I think I got it from Snape's (...) (21 years ago, 11-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
