Did you expect a 100% working Biosphere to appear out of thin air? Partly-working versions are necessary precursors of the fully-working version, and frankly it's surprising Biosphere 2 got as far as it did on the very first attempt. If we react to such precursor projects by spitting in their faces, people will eventually get the message and there won't be any more of them. Good luck finding a genie to conjure up the 100% versions for you then. ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: http://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=101455710-f059c4 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
