I think it's funny & cute and I think you did a fine job. I object ever so slightly to the "quote of context" comment. Several people have made that remark but I do try very hard to get the quotes right _ AND _ provide a link to the quote so anyone for any reason can check the context and I have no desire or benefit from quoting someone really 'out of context' ( although all quotes are necessarily out of context since one moment and environment is never fully duplicated ). If you have an objection to any quote of yours please state it, I will apologize if appropriate and let people judge me by the quote. Justin Couch made that complaint but offered no evidence and yes I have quoted him with about VRML EAI which I believe is a mess, and I believe my quote was entierely accurate, to the point, and not all misleading. I don't want you to get the impression I've gone soft ... Checking your pages ... ( Take Cover ! ) ... Brian Hay: "No Limits" & No Vrml if you have no M.S. Explorer ... ( note the first is in quotes & a quote, the second is neither ) I'd love to see your VRML ... but I'm running Linux, & your page says Microsoft Explorer is "Required" and Microsoft doesn't make a version of Explorer for Linux so I can just look at your pretty pictures, I'd love to your VRML, but you made it so I can't. VRML is portable, your VRML would be portabile if you didn't ... make it ... " for Microsoft Explorer Only " Isn't : No VRML for you, a limit ? no_limits.gif http://www.virtualrealms.com.au/images/no_limits.gif http://www.virtualrealms.com.au/vrml/ilab/images/msie.gif http://www.virtualrealms.com.au/ http://www.virtualrealms.com.au/vrml/ilab/ I liked your post. I'd love to see your VRML. I'm hoping you'll make a version, you know, for the web. Brian, I remember you ... when you beleived in portable VRML. I still believe. It's possible. If you want it, you can have it, you have to beleive in yourself. Let me know ... if you want it. I can help.
