Re: HALO vs Halo
Posted By: Sep7imus [subnova] <Sep7imus@subnova.com>	Date: 9/29/04 6:51 a.m.
In Response To: Re: HALO vs Halo (Metatron) : Here are a few map descriptions, found on b.net’s map page, that don't line : up with this explanation. : Damnation - A covenant structure that was used to control water flow into a : section of HALO. : Rat Race - An asymmetrical map which involves some human mining into one of : Halo's hallway system. : Hang 'em High - A large storage facility on the Halo which provides an : excellent location for all sorts of scenarios. : In all these examples one can see that the word halo is being used in : reference to an installation... most likely the huge Forerunner : "space rings." : -Metatron Okay, I'll bite, again. I jsut can't resist rising to the bait of a grammatically based line of speculation, even though I still think it's all incidental in this case. Have you considered another interesting naming anomoly? Sometimes the structure(s) are referred to as "Halo" and sometiems as "the Halo." If capitalizaiton could indicate a dsitinction between multiple Halos, couldn't the fact that sometimes it's used as a proper noun and other times it isn't also indicate some difference? -Sep7imus
