So, in case anyone was wondering if I'm dead or something (probably slipping way out of the top 10 posters list), the answer is: no. But I've been really busy both at work (Linux use is really picking up at BU!) and at home (Karen and I are buying a (...) (24 years ago, 27-Mar-01, to lugnet.people, lugnet.org.us.nelug)

Sadly, I don't have a dolphin. Or a manta ray, which I would have liked. My sealife is limited to seaweed, a shark, and two clams (sounds like a joke - "some seaweed, a shark, and two clams walk into a bar ..."). Besides, if it were a dolphin, how (...)

Nice job on the car. I really liked the attention to detail. ie the fish and air tank under neither. One Suggestion though, could you use a dolphin instead of a shark?

Hi all, My 1930s BR52 German steam engine is coming along nicely (some of you got a chance to see version 1.0 at Brikwars last weekend - it's been completely scrapped and redone on a larger scale).
