What I remember most about Ultima IV was the blind shop keep who determined if you paid her the correct amount by hearing the clink of coins. So you could buy anything for 2 coins so they clinked against each other. I thought I was so smart

Why not just learn another language like C++, Java, C#, etc, and spend the summer making a video game? Sounds like your skills are mostly web-devy right now. Branch out?

OnLive was good. I also thought the latency would be a blocker, but it really did just work. The problem for me was that I didn't want to stream PC games - I had a PC right there, so why bother? Now, if I could stream console games to

That's not right. There is no need to store text body in order to index it. Furthermore, you can implement an index of token hashes, rather than an index of tokens.

Mainly asking you for my own data, but I certainly think so (given how easy/cheap it is now). My son was non-verbal till he was 3 and as we later discovered, mutated on both 1298/677 due to bad genes from both my ex-wife and I. Wh
