Thanks. A warm flame always makes you feel a bit more comfy.

Well, about books, havent found ANY good books lately. The last one
I readed was something from Poe (some kind of novels collection).
I also love tolkien and Douglas, Kafka is OK, too, but most of paper
backbooks I see on stores just make me yawn. ALTHOUGH I love
uinteractive storyplots - I was very hooked with Star Control II to
find out what was all the stuff with those Ur_Quan masters AND I
had tio be sort of creative and at least try to make something, because
it was kinda harder to just turn the page of book. Btw, why I added this
... yes, kinda stupid statement to my last message was to see how
quickly people descent ionto personal level do defend their beliefs,
AT least people are now falming me instead of blabbing about doom over
and over. It grew boring.

... Playing X-Com now ... any more flames?
