Re: Fel Tracker

so, any infos regarding my question? The RSS one? A bit of poking around with some regex in Yahoo Pipes gives me this: http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.info?_id=8a0b3a463ea530fa62f0d275cd29c264 which works for me (it's showing a post in the garbage can atm). Only problem is, you'll need to be runn...

Re: Fel Tracker

would it be possible to create an RSS feed for new threads (not new posts) in subforums? In particular, I'd be interested in new threads in the Chapter Announcements forum - New thread means new chapter to read :) .... the current RSS feed with all new posts is way too cluttered for that... i use th...

Re: Unification- Chapter 2 - Spoilers

well, your cheerios stick because of surface tension and buoyancy. see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheerio_effect and it's not basically correct (without really heavy gravitational modification by the karinnes) because the outer shell is just not relevant if you are in the inner cavity, it's as if ...

Re: Unification- Chapter 2 - Spoilers

i didn't want you to change it (moon in a moon is cooler anyhow, artistic license in SF is kinda strong anyways), i just had to point it out (as a physicist i can't pass such things up sometimes). sorry, fel, but you're wrong. i am _not_assuming small mass. the only assumption is constant density (a...

Re: Unification- Chapter 2 - Spoilers

very nice chapter, liked it a lot. one thing [and i _do_ realise that this may be overly nitpicky, but the physicist in me just fumbled his will save]: it may be that my gravitational theory course was too long ago, but gravity inside a hollow sphere (of equal density) is always zero due to potentia...

Re: RIP Arthur C. Clarke

sad news indeed...
i've been planning to write him an email to thank him for his work (which definitely influenced my physics career choice) for half a year now, but never got around to it. now it's too late. :oops: i kinda hate myself/my laziness...

Re: How to Donate to Fel using Paypal

yah, I got several from Australia. I got 28 cards, but they're all from Australia, the Netherlands, Portugal, and New Zealand, not counting America. If I count the USA, 5 countries. ;) well that's interesting..because i definitely sent a postcard from vienna, austria. though it is _not_ australia (...

Re: Subjugation, chapter 19.

And yes, chapter 20 will be the final chapter of Subjugation. So there, before you ask, there's your answer. If we pray to you, have true faith in you and send you 2 postcard each will you consider writing another subjugation book in the future? i'll fetch the incense burner, you get something/some...

Re: Would You be happy Under the Subjugation?

hm, a good question, this one... i think, since being a physicist, i'd be happy under the subjugation, because the odds are good that i'm gonna end up as a scientist, playing around with (vastly superior) alien technology. one can only be happy about that. on the other hand, a subjugation is a subju...
