	Let me quickly add that I've only recently gotten the game. I 
started out with simple, easy and average difficulty (enlarging the 
galaxy and number of opponents as I went) but then my latest game at Hard 
I got beaten, but by a vote! They voted for the silly ant-boys! Geez. 
Sure they were much stronger and advanced but I had just developed toxic 
plants and gained a large number of new colonies... ack. Not fair.
	I tried the defiance thing but it would have been a massacre so I 
quit the game. Hard level is really hard I must say... I tried again and 
already on turn 40 the Meklars meet me just 6 parsecs from Sol with twice 
as many planets! Gave up on that too.
	Oh yeah, what's everyone's favourite race to play? I haven't 
experimented with other than Humans yet. I wonder are the others better 
or is trading and diplomacy a good trait? Are Humans powerful as opponents?
	Is there a FAQ?
	Oh and why is that it runs with only 800 K of EMS when they say 
it needs 1024K? It does get slow with a huge galaxy though... but it only 
crashes sometimes when I have an audience with the aliens. Always do F10 
before that now. :)
