Pvednes had this to say about John Romero:
As for cheating with steroids, there was an interesting idea thrown around in bioethics a while back of splitting various professional sports into another two categories--natural and unlimited. In the natural one, people compete without drugs and whatnot, as they (theoretically) do now. In the unlimited category, athletes that find it worth the risk use whatever means they wish to optimize their bodies for their sport.

Kinda like the normal bodybuilders and the grotesque bodybuilders.


I always thought that, in such a case, if steroids were allowed, each team should be deducted a certain amount of points for every steroid user on the team. Further, steroid users would never be allowed honors or to enter the hall of fame or such things.

We lived in an extremely rural area. There were days in the winter when the school bus either didn't make it to my place to pick me up, or couldn't get me home in the afternoon (and I'd have to walk quite a ways cross-country).

I blame people like you who do so little for our country yet recive so much. Must be a real honor to fly that desk of yours.

You've got a point. I've got the board set up to show 2 days of posts, and last week it only filled half my display. When I set it up that way, it was to keep the display to 2-3 pages.

I blame Sudar.
