Taxi out onto the highway and get your speed up to about 100, and head south. Take the left turn heading for the San Mateo Bridge, and stop by to give EA a load of missiles. Then continue on to the bridge itself and try to cross it. :-) Oh, and while taxiing down the highway, get the outside view (from the rear), and play with the elevator... fun stuff.. wheelies on the highway. -larry -- It is not possible to both understand and appreciate Intel CPUs. -D.Wolfskill +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | // Larry Phillips | | \X/ lphillips@lpami.wimsey.bc.ca -or- uunet!van-bc!lpami!lphillips | | COMPUSERVE: 76703,4322 -or- 76703.4322@compuserve.com | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
