Thought I'd better sign up to it even though Google hasn't quite got server-to-server interoperability just yet, since at least it's better than talking to people on MSN.

| Chemistry stinks, Biology bleeds, and Physics doesn't work! But really, I did okay with physics in high school. But maths on the other hand still bewilders me. I tried to do specialist maths in year 12 but couldn't do any methods after that either. Then at the start of this year I started doing an a... |

| C and C++ are outdated and you would be best off learning .NET in a hurry. It combines the best features of C# and VB into a cross platform architecure. No no.... Objective-C along with Cocoa/NeXT! From what I've seen of VB it's horrible but if it's just the same kind of framework with C language t... |

| City? That's what I put. I'm no apartment dweller (or flat dweller rather as we call them flats here), but as far as I know this is a city I'm living in. Though perhaps Central/inner city would have been another good option, as opposed to outer suburbia (that is anything beyond inner city). |

| This really depends on your age, what you do and what your interests are. I guess people are always going to suggest clubs and stuff or you could try finding an aspie social group in your area. Another thing that might work is to try doing a short course of some description, I just started back at T... |

| set up an improvised shooting range and go target or trap shooting Come to think of it, NZ doesn't have much in the way of native fauna for you to hunt. It was essentially only occupied by bird species before humans arrived, these species would be protected. Though I'm sure they'd welcome you to hu... |

| Unless your mailbox quota is really limited, IMAP is probably a better choice than POP3. I know a few people who use fastmail and they're quite happy with it. While they do have a limited free offering you have to pay to get decent storage space. |

| It's a hard balancing act to make, whether or not to tell people. I pretty much didn't tell anyone as a kid. I wouldn't allow the school to disclose it to other kids either. It probably had it's disadvantages considering I had an integration aide anyway and the other kids would often treat me as tho... |

| Looks like the Kiwis have caught up with us and the Western Australians aren't far behind. Hi, you wouldn't believe it but it's supposed to be winter up here and it is still hot! It's good to see that there's so many Aussies here. That's what you get for living in Townsville. I'd be tempted to go up... |

| I've done it quite a bit. Most typical scenario is sitting on a train then I think of something and I can't help but chuckle. Another place is meetings, someone might actually say something funny, but then I think of it again later on. I've often done it around other people, I remember that my cousi... |
