I didn't think you'd ever reveal that story.

You were in high school in '88?  Dang, suddenly I feel very, very old....

So, what's the significance of "Downtown 3"?

it is from a russel crow movie, where he is a hostage negotator, downtown 3 is the callsign of one of the people on the extraction team, the SAW gunner if my memory serves me correctly.

Wow, that's a pretty amazing memory John...unless you just have a thing for Russell Crow movies (just joking about the movies).

Kyle,

And here I thought you got Riggs from ‘Aliens' (still one of my favorite movies even with all the mistakes).

nope no thing for russel crow movies, only seen proof of life once ( although it was a decent flic ) I just have always had a damn near idetic (photographic) memory, anything I read, see, hear, I usually remember. A damn usefull trick in school and college.

(Bolt_Overide) Yea I bet it is!  Hey maybe you can help out on a couple of m-theory problems (it's tough for me to wrap my brain around a 4-dimensional hyper cube, much less 10/11 dimensions!)...Oh wait-airsoft, not physics site...sorry Riggs..er.. I mean Downtown3.

Just my 2cents Kyle but I kinda liked the Riggs callsign...

lak, I took basic physics and thats it, just wasnt my cup of tea, more into "real" stuff other than theoretical stuff, hence my interest in engineering.

When will it ever end!!  AAAAAUUUUUGGGG!!
