Ok, this is not useless but usefull (at least I hope )

It's a small tool I programmed to save and edit log files for multiple games (Orbiter, FS, or even real flights ).
But you need .NET Framework to run it.
Tell me what you think!

Load logfile list seems not to work. Also if you try to save to not existing folder, you get an error. Try to introduce some
checking.

Have you created a folder in the "logs" folder?
And if you did, have you saved any logfiles in there?
Because when there are no files the list is empty.

checking.

Yes, that's the next thing I want to do.

I heard about that one last night Free on the fickin news.. The mental health US population is REALLY starting to worry me.

hehe, BTW I found this game and it is REALLY good and very addictive, you might find it fun too

Shareware version lets you advance to level 6, but if you pay a measly $12 you can unlock it. VERY nicely done horse riding
fights and a very intuitive interface!

Ok, I uploaded a new version with folder checking.

Has anyone else tried it yet?

Go here and download the movie. I'll explain as best I can because it took me a few watches to understand it, myself.

basically, the group of people are playing a game, that has a microphone ability, so it's easier to communicate, as
opposed to typing. They're just outside this room that has a bunch of nasty monsters in it, and are planning a
strategy when all hell breaks loose.

President Kennedy on his visit to Berlin:

What he meant to say: "I am a Berlin citizen!"

What he should have said: "Ich bin Berliner"

What he did say: "Ich bin ein Berliner!"

Translation of what he said: "I am a doughnut!"

Babelfish is wrong, according to my German teacher anyway.
= ein Berliner. See in the URL.

actually it doesn't matter whether you say "ich bin berliner" or "ich bin ein berliner".
unless you don't look like a donut, nobody will think of it!

[freespace2dotcom]

I like "ich bin ein frankfurter" myself.

say, mcbrain, about your quote:

"Half of the life is fortune, the other is discipline.
But discipline is vital because without it you can't take up your luck."

It should be "half of life is fortune..." yadda yadda yadda.. and so on.

"The" implies a specific life, and no specific life is specified so the "the" is inappropriate.
