Yeah, autosave/quicksave often. You can revert to one of them if an event occurs that you don't like.

[quote]And CNN isn't spewwing out propoganda for the left wing?[/quote] That's true, but Fox News just sorta stands out to me. It's the people like Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly on there that make it unwatchable for me. I'm a conservative, through-and-through, but the way they talk it's as if there can't be any other valid viewpoint in the world save their own. I try to pick the most unbiased of them all, people like Anderson Cooper, but they've all got at least a little bias in them.<

I've had this ever since DL and DA. Kinda funny actually. It's the only ship that doesn't change into a symbol when you zoom-out.

I don't use anti-virus software. I never get any viruses. Is it really that useful?

225 MB RAM? All I can say is, "Ouch!" That probably isn't going to take you very far. :(

Reply to What is EVOLUTION, anyway? in Everything Else GalCiv2 Forums

A lot of times, when evolutionists and creationists are debating, I've noticed, neither side is really, truly informed about what the other side believes. They usually end up talking about two different things and think they're debating the same subject. Evolution is observably true in a certain respect, in the respect that the gene-pool of any species changes over time.

[quote]Who is John Galt?Well, he's one of the main characters in Atlas Shrugged.But I think it's a screenie from a custom race game.[/quote] You know that that's a phrase used throughout the book, right? It means, "Don't ask questions nobody can answer." I just finished reading [I]Atlas Shrugged[/I] yesterday. It's soooo long! >.<
