Quite interesting as it was sporting back then to kick someone on the shin...Of course this is a tradition being carried forward by soccer players... Matt PS trying to get back onto some Linux subject, any well known sporting figures using Linux and aren't afraid to say so? Or any well known figures using Linux/FlightGear? Well, my professional soccer career never quite took off like I hoped. :-P The best I can say is that one year I played on a team with a guy who later played a couple years professional here in the USA. Now (like many other not-very-good never-has-beens) you might see my face show up in a local rec league once in a while. :-) http://nscsports.com/servlet/NSC.USACup.displayResults?actionx=scoresub_cat=998category=116 Cheer for Xenos, our first game is tonight ... ;-) Curt. -- Curtis Olson IVLab / HumanFIRST Program FlightGear Project Twin Cities[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Minnesota http://www.menet.umn.edu/~curt http://www.flightgear.org ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
