iglak: No I meant LCD's. but learning how Plasmas work would be interesting too.

OK. That's what I thought.

Yeah, I think it has been done so much it now has its own name. They call this kind of trickery "Google bombing"

And we could probably see it from here too.

I personally think there should be a General Math Forum for us to discuss about Math in general. Also, It would also be nice to have a Math Forum for posting Math Problems. What do you think?

I think the Programmer didn't feel like studying... :sucks:

I was just wondering how an LCD display worked. I heard that they like water bubles and they pass certain ammounts of electricity through them to make them display the right color. I am not sure if all/some of that is correct.

So the Plasma we are talking about in this thread is the same Plasma they use in new HDTV displays?

Nice suggestion gene! I think that would be a "don't try this at home"

No. Google counts the amount of times people go to the same page and puts them in order based on that rating. I think this article will help: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/3298443.stm For more articles: http://news.google.com/news?num=100&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&newwindow=1&edition=us&q=Miserable+Failure+on+Google&spell=1

OK thanks! EDIT: I changed to Orbitz. Now it works. Thanks!

The Lord of The Rings: The Return of the King (Book 3). Hope I can finish before the movie comes out.

Nice idea aman. That would really be a sight to see!

I just noticed that in topics with more than one page, the button to change pages is only at the top. I personally prefer (and use more) for it to be on bottom (as well as top) so that when you read one page, you can go to the next page without having to scroll back to the top. Any ideas>comments?

I guess the N is so we don't get mixed up with SF (SourceFourge.net)

Sayanora: OK NSX and atinymonkey: I think the next windows is comming out in 2005/6 although it might be 2007/8. I heard on the MyIE2 forum that they are coming out with 6.02 to add something but I forget what it was. I think it was some minor thing or add an add blocker. Not something major for someone who uses MyIE2 though ;>)

I believe the correct term is "Synchronous" the moon is moving in synchronous to us so we only see one side. The other side is known as the dark side just because we never see it. It still gets light though.

Who the heck spent the time to jumble those letters??

Incase you haven't heard: A bunch of pranksters on the Net have rigged Google. If you search Google on "Miserable Failure" and clikc the "I'm Feeling Lucky" Button, then it will take you directly to George W. Bush's Bio on whitehouse.gov. This comes after Dick Gephardt called Bush a Miserable Failure.

Is that a real book?? If not then where did you get the picture? P.S. Can you get me a Space ship so I can actually go to the Moon?

Sayanora: Do you have/use MyIE2?

I think I should know this but... what is LC-3?

There is actually a Sam's Publishing book on Beginning Programming. It says to do BASIC, VB, Java and then C/C++. I don't really agree with the Java part though. The book also gives you programs for each and walks you through the process. Looked pretty good except I didn't find until I was halfway up the tree.

phoenix: Yes. I am using IE but with a lot more capability. NOT Just a different GUI! It is actually amazing that Microsoft has never thought to make IE a tabbed browser even though there biggest competition (Mozilla, Netscape, and Opera) are ALL tabbed!

Thanks Tony. However, that article is for VB6 and I have VB4--as old as it might be...
