In Response To: Re: *Slight spoiler* (Steve Levinson)

: That would certainly be convenient, except what little I can see of the
: equations seems more consistent with a wave equation (our circularly
: polarized electromagnetic wave, perhaps), but that may be a stretch. More
: importantly, the story of Kate in the dream levels is only connected to
: the Achilles virus by analogy. The Jjaro would never be so direct as to
: refer to the virus specifically. I've always thought that the equations
: were symbolic of science in general.

: I don't have a good answer to that one.

: Texas! Yuck (no offense to those of you who may live there, but it's not the
: most attractive part of the U.S. I hope that you at least had a chance to
: visit San Antonio and Austin - the more attractive cities in Texas.

We saw San Antonio airport, that's about it :)

:Big Bend National Park is also exquisitely beautiful, but a favorite area for
: drug runners to cross the border. If you ever come back, I've visited all
: but 3 of the 50 states, which will be down to 2 after this summer, as we
: will be going to Mane. (The only 2 left will be N. Dakota and
: Mississippi.) My favorite cities in the U.S. are Seattle (even more than
: the S.F Bay area, where I once lived), NYC, Washington D.C. (another
: former home), and Chicago. Boston, Philadelphia and San Diego are also
: nice, and LA has some nice places (my step-father-in-law lives in the
: Marina, with a view I never tire of). In terms of scenic beauty, our park
: system is without parallel. I'm particularly partial to the desert parks
: in Southern Utah and northern Arizona, but Yellowstone is in a class by
: itself, and the Rocky Mountain parks are also spectacular.

My friend has been to Yellowstone park and he has told me how amazing it is. Likewise Uluru National Park (where Ayres Rock is) is amazing for completely different reasons. The soil is red, not orange, red.
You have been to 47 US States? Wow. Everyone in Australia thinks Americans are wierd for having so many states :) We have 6 states and 2 territories and our landmass is nearly that of continental US.

: Believe it or not, Rochester NY is the nicest place I have ever lived - we do
: a lousy job of advertizing what we have, which includes water, water,
: everywhere, fine wineries, some world-class museums, a cultural
: environment that is exceptional and, unlike in NYC, available, and a
: delightful 4 season climate (this is saying a lot coming from someone who
: used to hate snow). We came here for a job at the University, but have
: been here 10 years now, much to our amazement.

Ugh, snow season has just started here, I hate winter. In Sydney we don't get snow, just the cold. Sounds like a nice place to go. I've always wanted to do a bit of a tour around the US but I need money to do that, also the Australian dollar is something like 57c US.

: Oops - I know that. Chalk it up to carelessness - like using “Harry” rather
: than “Hairy” Legs. ;-)

Sure, sure :)
