    Yakuzza Lethecus: wb aph
    Aphrodite Macbain: tx!
    Yakuzza Lethecus: eos came last week and asked about venice
    Aphrodite Macbain: Really? wll it's happening and Wol is coming!
    Aphrodite Macbain: Lat week of September
    Wol Euler nods.
    Aphrodite Macbain: Last
    Aphrodite Macbain: Is Eos serious about coming?
    Yakuzza Lethecus: well, there was no further debate about it, he just asked about venice
    Aphrodite Macbain: kk
    Aphrodite Macbain: I'll send out an email to everyone to get an idea how many are seriously interested
    Aphrodite Macbain: It's odd to speak in text after being in voice. Very quiet
    Bleu Oleander: yes!
    Wol Euler: yes, right
    Aphrodite Macbain: smehow the birds have gone too..
    Bleu Oleander: an odd transition
    Aphrodite Macbain thinks Wol is a form of exotic bird
    Aphrodite Macbain: Storm walked. :-)
    Wol Euler grins.
    Wol Euler: storm took the train!
    Storm Nordwind: Indeed he did
    Wol Euler: the new and improved NDR
    Storm Nordwind: but approved?
    Wol Euler: looks very nice, haven't ridden it yet
    Bleu Oleander: I like the new and improved! I approve :)
    Aphrodite Macbain: so do I Bravo
    Storm Nordwind smiles with professional pride :)
    Bleu Oleander: :)
    Yakuzza Lethecus: but now we need weather :P
    Yakuzza Lethecus: like to see the sun on steve´s plot
    Bleu Oleander: of course
    Storm Nordwind: Not everyone wants it I think
    Bleu Oleander: awww
    Aphrodite Macbain: Storm and Bleu I am most impressed by your pieces in the dome. They are very beautiful
    Bleu Oleander: ty Aph!
    Bleu Oleander: how is yours coming?
    Storm Nordwind: Very kind of you to say so Aph
    Aphrodite Macbain: well it's true. Poetry
    Storm Nordwind: And have you seen the meteors?
    Aphrodite Macbain: it's conming along. I made a few giant leaps last night
    Bleu Oleander: great!
    Aphrodite Macbain: yes. I lay on the floor storm
    Bleu Oleander: the meteors are wonderful
    Aphrodite Macbain: they are so realistic. I'd ask how you made them but I probably wont undertand the answer
    Storm Nordwind: They're really simple actually
    Storm Nordwind: Just a short script
    Aphrodite Macbain: I thought you worked out a deal with NASA
    Storm Nordwind: Took more effort to install all the particle points (the golden balls on the roof)
    Bleu Oleander: it must be great to have a good command of scripting so you can be free to design with it
    Storm Nordwind: I think that's the same with any artisan skill
    Bleu Oleander: yes
    Aphrodite Macbain: Particle points?
    Aphrodite Macbain: what do they do?
    Storm Nordwind: Technically the meteors using those particle points - the golden balls
    Storm Nordwind: They each announce on a secret chat channel where they are
    Yakuzza Lethecus: good evening aga
    Storm Nordwind: And other balls within 20 meters pick that up and put their locations into a list
    Wol Euler: hello aggers
    Agatha Macbeth: Wollie ♥
    Bleu Oleander: hey Aggers!
    Aphrodite Macbain: intergalactic conversdation..
    Aphrodite Macbain: Hey Aggrs, nice red pants
    Storm Nordwind: Then at a random time between 15 and 30 seconds, each ball send another ball (picked randomly from the ones with 20m) a short particle stream, which arrives at the destination in precisely 1 second
    Bleu Oleander: like your Art of Being piece!
    Agatha Macbeth: Give it an hour, I might see em myself
    Storm Nordwind: So some some close by appear to travel slowly, whereas those 20m away travel quickly
    Agatha Macbeth: and thank you :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Evening all
    Aphrodite Macbain: holds her head in her hands and gives it a shake
    Bleu Oleander: got that Aph?
    Agatha Macbeth: Don't worry Aph, it's still there
    Aphrodite Macbain: thanks- I sometimes wonder...
    Storm Nordwind: But some dawdust fell out. Do you want it back. or shall I just sweep it up later Aph?
    Agatha Macbeth: I never use mine anyway
    Storm Nordwind: *sawdust
    Bleu Oleander: haha
    Agatha Macbeth brushes away the dawdust
    Aphrodite Macbain: hmmm.
    Agatha Macbeth: Er, what's fullbright Stormy?

    Storm Nordwind: Aggers, have a look at the box I just put over the pool
    Agatha Macbeth: Right
    Storm Nordwind: And switch to midnight
    Agatha Macbeth: OK
    Storm Nordwind: Then look around the faces of the box
    Storm Nordwind: The one closest to you will be dark
    Agatha Macbeth: Yes
    Storm Nordwind: On the opposite side it's light because there's a light at the center of the pool
    Storm Nordwind: right?
    Agatha Macbeth: True
    Storm Nordwind: Now if i edit the box, texture tab, there's a checkbox for Full Bright
    Storm Nordwind: If I check it, watch what happens
    Agatha Macbeth: Ooh
    Aphrodite Macbain: fully bright
    Agatha Macbeth: Indeed
    Storm Nordwind: Now switch back to daylight
    Agatha Macbeth: Right
    Aphrodite Macbain: white
    Storm Nordwind: And I've taken off full bright
    Bleu Oleander: you can also select just one side to make full bright
    Aphrodite Macbain: still white
    Agatha Macbeth: Hmm
    Storm Nordwind: So it's something you could play with - BUT it make be intrusive
    Storm Nordwind: *may
    Agatha Macbeth: Intersesting, thank you
