Same here, this seems to have happened at some point during the day.

There was some kind of weirdness - server admin Donnerjack thinks a failed SQL injection attack, but no real record of it - and we're really sorry that comments got lost.Brazil has decided you're cute.

S'okay, Talienas. At least nothing got really horked over.

It's up, it's good. And... wow.
Some interesting perspectives and implications...

There is a new mini story up at EPU called "The Way to Go Home: A Project Phoenix Aside"

Hmm. New mic, huh? Sounds a little on the thin side, but he's still experimenting with it. Otherwise, it's just as good as the other UF audiobooks.

Link? It's not on the What's New page, and it doesn't seem to be listed on the story page(s).

In case you haven't found it by now, you can get it here in the EPU forums. It was filed under Mini-Stories.

Yes, I found it the next time I went to the forums, but thanks anyway.

The third and final part of Project Phoenix, "The Eye of Harmony," is now available, via the 'what's new' page.

What he said.  Except: Add: EPU folks have scored yet another crowning moment of awesome with what they did with The Master.  (^_^)
  

I think there were at least three CMOAs in that one (depending on exactly where your threshold for that sort of thing is), but yes, the bit with the Master was at least one of them.

The other half of The Way To Go Home, showing events from Rose Tylers point of view... and a nice little alternate universe too

hmm like that's not foreboding much

Gee, Rod. what would EVER give you that Idea?

Personally I have to bite down on the urge to wonder if this might mean a return of the CSI's, in and of that one episode that had Black Mesa in the title.

I like the phrase "Action Scientist".

I also hope that Star Ranger4's idea is correct. There's not many things I'm more interested in seeing more of than CSI:NA.

-Morgan. That sentence is hard to parse. '.'

There's what, 4 or 5 stories on the CSI:NA page that directly reference Half-Life? *checks* Close, there are 3. Although I can hope for more CSI:NA, who knows, maybe Gryphon's adding Gordon Goddamn Freeman to the cameo clusterf*** that A Song of War is going to be.

Add me to the CIS: NA hopeful list. Greg and Sara are a hoot.
Though the part where Gordon's supposed to be a witty banter type...

Hrm... interesting little tidbit on the forum over there:

Probably true, though in the Enlightenment and early Industrial Revolution, a lot of science was retroactively driven by technology that was originally devised by empirical trial and error. Our modern understanding of gas pressure and so forth, for instance, was formulated at least in part by people looking at early steam engines and thinking, Okay, I get that it works, that's plain to see, but why is it working?
--G.

Now, my mother, who is married to a highly experienced printed circuit board designer, will often say that, "Engineers dream it, but the designers actually build it." That is to say, an engineer will come up with the idea, but leave the smaller details to a staff of designers such as circuit layout.
Tony Stark is not exempt. Only instead of an army of designers, he has a highly advanced computer system to work out all the little stuff for him, leaving him free to create and refine as he sees fit.
