On one of the add-ons "The Advanced base" It's says to tune your Holocom to a freq. What are they talking about?

That was R Groszewski's Spacetech Services Division. He was trying to add a little depth by getting the downloader into the
spirit of the download. Com frequencies do not work in Orbiter accept for VOR, ILS, and VTOL. Also, the Orbiter Sound 3.5
frequencies only work for those frequencies that have a soundpack folder.

I agree, very confusing for a newbie. Welcome BTW!

Cheers,

Hello. Yeah, The holocomm thing was just a little extra to get you into the spirit of the future... Not that there is a
Holocomm in orbiter, anyways. Sorry if I haven't been here for a while, I've discovered online gaming. Battle Field 2 is
what I play, but I usually play it with this mod I have that's called Sandbox. I've been playing BF2 for a while now, But
I still suck at it. I'll check back in a while....

Maybe a Holocomm will come in the next orbiter version or in the DG5. :)

Maybe R Groszewski can do the leading work on the Holocomm. I really don't want to insult you, R Groszewski.

Probably, but there are other possibilities:

Death of family (extreme depression)

A situation meaning that I would be getting more energy from eating the biscuit rather than using it to buy bread (inflation)

Famine

Nuclear winter (could be seen as a holocaust against humanity by aliens (or Americans;)), I suppose...)

Only food within reach

You do know that apart from the choc-chip cookie thing, my other plan is to genocide all evil-laughers, right?

Oh my god, I only just realised that Galileo posted that super-stupid transcript thing, not you Dig Gil... this is realy
starting to get confusing.

Anyway, I'll post it here, because I have decided to take a stand on the side of common sense. I would have pmed this to you
Galileo, but I belive that the world needs to see this.

Galileo, stupid, long, immature posts are not appreciated here. Please stop. Learn to be etiquetteious [sic]. If you don't
know what that means, look here: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/etiquette and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etiquette
If you can't be mature and etiquitteious, leave. Our nerves have been frayed enough.

It's not that or anything, just think before you post. I'm not asking you to leave or anything, provided you can act in a
mature manner. That's all.
