    Portable building

    How about the Starbucks small wonder. After you build it, for every active unit they'll always be a Starbucks in an adjacent square. :p (Found out today there's one in the White House)

    In real life, who built the Great Wonders?

    In real life, who built the Great Wonders?

    Huh. Well, I really don't know the answer re: pre-revolutionary colonial voting rights. Do you mean that Canadians can't vote for senate if they are poor, or only can't be elected senator? It is bizarre to have the value hard coded. What if there was massive currency deflation? Or someone...

    Funniest Thing the Computer has Said?

    The phrase has been lingua franca in Texas for at least eight years. Maybe by way of (Mexican) Spanish, similar to "it's all good" which derives, I'm certain, from "esta bien." Huh. Well, that would explain one more funny look I get up here in New England these days. Oh well, it's all good. :D

    In real life, who built the Great Wonders?

    So, you want to know if homeless women in the U.S. colonies had the vote? I mean -- land in the U.S. was next to free back then, so I'm not sure if the question applies really. Long live squatter's rights! /-----------\ | | \ ^ | | | \ | | | | \ | | | | \ | | | |...

    In real life, who built the Great Wonders?

    Women had the right to vote in most if not all of the U.S. colonies. In 1777 Women lost the right to vote in New York. And it was downhill from there as this timeline shows. Women could vote in New Jersey until 1807. BTW, the First Women's Rights Convention was held in Seneca Falls in...

    ask crack for version 1.16f!!!!

    As Ben Franklin once wrote: "The Lord helps those who help themselves." Which is to say -- if you want to hack out the CD protection, no one is stopping you. Get a disassembler and a good debugger, learn the basics of assembly code, and write your own patch. Probably the people who wrote the...

    The lack of support

    As someone with plenty of Quality Assurance experience, I know the dillemma of either doing all testing and development on one cloned box versus trying to test every combination. However, firmware specific problems are fairly rare when the software is written correctly. There are standards to...

    Crashing, can`t progress

    I have the exact same problem it would seem. Right after entering the modern age as the Babylonians, I get a divide by zero error at the start of the next turn. It's almost Biblical, come to think of it.... I guess I'll try a reinstall too.
