  • The Pitt and Point Lookout are the two best ones. The Pitt has a good story line and feels like a good film and you're the main character.

    Point Lookout is a whole new location which is really fun to explore. Bigger challenges and tougher enemies.

    They're both worth getting. Operation Anchorage and Mothership Zeta kinda suck.
    Hey, you can always BS about freedom of speech. Be sure to sing paens to the US constitution while you're at it. We could always use more praise.
    Generate vast quantities of bull**** and pray. It's English. They'll never tell the difference. (Seriously. I'm an English major at the moment, until I catch up on the math. That's my method of choice.)
    I envy you. I overslept, missed breakfast, and am now at work. I can't get lunch for another thirty minutes, when I get off the circ desk.
    Yeah, I haven't done much designing on paper, but CAD makes it a lot easier to go back and change things, fix screwups, improve it, and so on.
    Yeah, my high school's Project Lead the Way program got us access to Autodesk Inventor, but they didn't get the cool modeling CAM stuff until the year after I graduated.

    I haven't heard of that one, but I suspect there's a lot of CAD programs. I've only used a few.
    Yes, probably. The CAD program I've used most, Autodesk Inventor, is also a 3D modeling program. A lot of the newer CAD programs are both, from what I've seen. Very power-intensive.

    But also very cool. Makes it easy to do modeling, both virtually, and it can work with CAM-- computer-aided manufacturing, unless I'm making that acronym up. It can make models really quickly from CAD drawings.

    Plus, I can't draw for ****, so CAD helps a lot there.
    ... I see. Yeah, I think here we mostly use resumes, outside of certain fields. And yes, I know I left out some accents in the word. **** that. I'm American. We don't need no steenking accents.

    Yeah, but, but, but... ah, **** it, I don't want to bother justifying it-- CAD is Computer-Aided Drafting, Design, or Drawing, depending on who you ask.
    Sorry, what's becoming outdated? The term "curriculum vitae?" I'm confused, are you talking about something more formal than just a section on your resume or what? And yeah, your ****storm of undefined acronyms and terms are befuddling my poor isolationist, ignorant American brain.

    And not quite. http://www.sis.umd.edu/bin/soc?crs=...our=12&startmin=00&ampm=am&level=All&center=0

    And yeah, I suck royally at hand-sketches. That's why CAD is God's gift to, well, me. And anyone trying to make sense of anything I may design.
    Subsidiary of the whatnow? Curriculum vitae is a pretty damn old phrase. It's mostly out of fashion in the US, outside of certain circumstances-- that's why we have no reason to come up with a nifty little acronym to use as slang for it.

    Oh, and I actually lied to you. Next semester I'm taking statics, not dynamics. Bit of a difference, there. The rest was true, aside from the addition of Intro to Engineering Design.
    I know what "curriculum vitae" means. But "CV" isn't something we say here. For that matter, neither is "curriculum vitae." It only shows up on really pretentious resumes and sometimes in college professor's bios. At least so far as I've seen.

    Right now I'm in the really basic stuff. Next semester I'll be taking (unless I'm mis-remembering) dynamics, aerospace computing, Calc 3, and general Physics 2. Some other things, too, but I can't remember what they are.
    Yeah, I like it, and the class makes it so I have motivation to work on it.

    Not sure what a CV is (transcript?) but no, I'm mostly relying on my math and physics. Which are at least ten times as hard as all my other classes combined. And my grades show it, unfortunately.
