Re: SHC Round 1 Instant Replay Thread [SPOILERS]
Argh... The stupid IRS is annoying me even after I no longer have to pay their taxes. How could I forget the 1040 is the number for the form?!? Yowzah! How did you pull that off, move to another country? I've been trying for decades to get off their mailing list, and nothing has worked! Yup. I move...

I'm Rob from Kingston, Ontario. I teach physics and engineering at Queen's University (except if we go on strike/get locked out next week!), and work on teeny tiny motors at ultra low temperatures in my lab. I'm a long time trivia fan, and my parents have my lone episode of CBC's "Reach for the Top"...

Re: SHC Round 1 Instant Replay Thread [SPOILERS]
Need help with a ruling on "Warp Drive" for the Star Wars hyperspace/hyperdrive clue. The Star Wars people I live with say no, but if there's a case for accepting it I'll hear it. I love the fictional technology category. Thanks DoT! Hyperdrive is faster than light travel. So is warp drive. Differe...

Re: A question for the Canadian boardies
or anyone who can provide some insight, for that matter. :) I'm going to visit my brother up in Calgary in a couple weeks. Is there anything there that is just "gots-to-see"? We do plan on heading out to Banff for a day (and even there, is there certain sights that should be seen above others?), bu...

Re: A question for the Canadian boardies
I've got a question that's been bugging me for a month or so and couldn't find a Canuck to answer it. While watching the Stanley Cup finals from Vancouver, I was noticing the ads on the boards. I figured out most of them and was amused by the change of Boston Pizza to Vancouver Pizza for the series...
