Well, had my head handed to me here good. Also every other I am holding...tuff market. Margin calls have been a daily event for 6 straight days (yuck). What's your point Rich? Well...I don't know about any merger stuff (wish I did), but I did visit the Pepsi site today. My, oh my is it nice. The publicity for Klingon Honor Guard is unbelievable. It runs in a Java applet and it is really nicely done. Everyone here should go look at it. Visit: pepsiworld.com and click "Enter Here", then select, "Games". I am pretty sure anybody visiting there will be REALLY IMPRESSED. Make sure you watch the full Eclipse and then click on the different buttons (at the bottom) for the nice effects (like screen shots, video, audio,etc). That's about all I have to say...wish I had more but I am taking a bath in this market:(:(:( Hopefully better days are around the corner:) Rich

CIV Competition next-generation.com Ace Of Space: Inside Alpha Centauri Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri could be the strategy title to end all others. August 3, 1998 Sid Meier's new company Firaxis is in the process of producing Alpha Centauri, and the general concensious is that this will be the true successor to the highly popular Civilization series. Brian Reynolds (the driving force behind Civilization 2) is the designer in chief of this turn based, empire building title. Remember all those poor humans you shot off into space at the end of Civilization 2? Well, by all accounts they made it. The game is based on the fate of the colonists after they reach Alpha Centauri. You get to play the ruler of one of the factions that developed amongst the motely crew during the long flight to the nearest star system to earth.
