IRVINE, CALIFORNIA???I live in Irvine, California, although I'm currently in New York for college. We must talk...let me try to catch you on AIM. Edited by: Scott Siskind  at: 2/14/04 5:11 pm

SSFSX17,Welcome to Shireroth Â…. And as Minister of Trade I want to Â…. Thank you for accepting the job of running the stock market.I now attempt to recruit you to the Duchy of Kildare where I live. Once there you are also invited to join me in the Halluci nation.If you would like to have any questions answered about Kildare ask the Duke or someone who would know. If you have any questions about my Halluci nation just ask me.Austi

Scott: Coincidentally, I'm only in Irvine for college, and I actually live in this strange place between Oakland and San Jose.Austi: About the recruiting thing, it's too late. I already consider myself recruited by mDuo13.

Fine then, I wish to now give a hearty Thank you to mDuo13 for recruiting you to Halluci nation.

No, I'm an Information and Computer Science major. I hope to specialize in Artifical Intelligence and Computer Games.

Extreeeemely interesting. Ever read Godel, Escher, Bach? It's a book on artificial intelligence (well, eventually it gets to be about artificial intelligence, after a few detours) that I just finished. Very very good; I'm recommending it to everyone I meet.So I would assume you know how to program? If you get really into Shireroth, we always have a couple of things that people with programming skills could help with, although I hesitate to ask you right now because they're a lot of work. Ari's been down that path and probably doesn't want to be reminded of it... Edited by: Scott Siskind  at: 2/16/04 5:19 pm

"If you get really into Shireroth,"Not unless I get paid a crapload of S-props."we always have a couple of things that people with programming skills could help with, although I hesitate to ask you right now because they're a lot of work."All you have to do is describe the tasks to me and I won't even have to go through the trouble of finding out they're too hard. I can see how hard they'd be right away.

Hey..i thought i was the one who approved new cits! *feels like job is being infringed upon*..oh well...*stamps approval*...welcome to Shireroth... I have no custom signature...oh wait...
