Convenient? It seems very appropriate that this is cross-posted to alt.conspiracy.

I don't think the question is: "will OS/2 X.X run Windows Y.Y apps now?"

Well I think whenever ESPN covers the game they do a wonderful job. But what I don't understand is that they cut the OT just show some stupid baseball news which is not important at all. Then I waited for the scores to comeon Sportscenter, but they talk about Baseball, basketball and football. Then they showed Penguine | highlight and went back to stupid basketball. Finally they showed a highlight of the OT goal but that was like 30 sec. I think they should give more attention to NHl during the playoffs then talking about boring basketball games.. I guess it is NHL's fault too for leaving ESPN. Hope things improve by next season... COB... |

First of all, "ceremonial law" is an extraScriptural term. It is sometimes used as a framework to view Scripture.

Just a thought on resources, It is very important if you do use a multiplatform toolkit to check on how it uses resources. I have used Glockenspeil commonview under Motif and OS2.

Well, there *is* a difference. I don't happen to have my SAE manual handy, but oil viscosity in general _decreases_ with temperature.
