Re: Interdictor maths

Gotcha, Thank You! Because as I saw it by making outer dimensions of the cubes that large, they left spaces between the layers (even in a two dimensional layout), which I didn't think would be 'safe' as a 'barrier.' But, as I said I'm not a math nut - I just have this odd sense that can "almost...

Re: Interdictor maths

Just one question: if you use the cubic method, what do you do about the gaps, because I can't "see" how they would work out to give a full overlap?

PS: I'm getting fairly old and not a major math nut, just a long retired engineer, so a simple answer may have eluded me.

Re: Sad day

My sympathies to those who were affected! As a country, we in Canada went through something similar a few years ago in Quebec and I know how it can hit below the belt, because you just don't expect that sort of thing. At least that's how I felt then, but now that it is become more common to see thos...

Oh Yeaaaaahhhh! Me Too!

Re: Is that a Fire Dragon - perhaps?

I'll be returning to Earth Bond after I finish Retribution. Yay and Yee Haw!!!! I really like that story! As for my own efforts - they are unfortunately at a near stalemate -- I write like mad for a few hours, then reread what was written and find it is not up to snuff. The ideas I wish to convey a...

Re: Is that a Fire Dragon - perhaps?

Yep, I did recall that, but felt the personality acted more like that of a fire dragon that that of a sky dragon, so I thought there was a chance that either I or the artist had gone colour blind. :wink:

Re: Retribution, Chapter 13 [Spoilers]

Okay I have one issue with Chapter 13. If the gestalts in his arm got that hot that it killed his flesh, how is it that there no smoke or steam given off by his flesh? If the flesh was simmered at less than 212 degrees F (boiling), maybe I can see that kind of damage, he would have already been in ...

Re: Links to Good Reading (Part 2)

if you've read any of the Pern stories, you'll be fine - only the fanfic author doesn't like AM's science or the ending of the Pern series, she has an "alternate" view.

Re: Links to Good Reading (Part 2)

So I just read a fairly good story on SOL (I got the link to the story from this thread) that drew me in and had me loving the characters from the first chapter. I also have this problem where I get too emotionally attached to characters in a story that I love. That's why I hate books where the aut...
