  1. I'll only answer no 1 as it seems to be the only one people don't know

     

    Click for Spoiler:

    The size of round used by the british during WWII and for a long time before was .303" the main weapon was a Lee Enfield no 4 bolt action rifle with a 5 round clip. the other main weapon was the Bren Gun which was allso .303". then we moved on after the war to a 762 round in the SLR & GPMG but the Bren was also still in service so we still used .303's now we have the standard NATO 5.56mm in the form of the Enfield L85 A1(SA80) & L98 A1(LSW).....Useless trivia...We still have a version of the LE no 4. the Lee Enfield no 8 has the same wood furnicher as the no 4 but us designed to take a .22" round but these are being phased out in favour of the .22" convertion kits for the SA80

  3. actually it uses energy and structures it into atoms as energy is mass....

    e=mc^2

    It arranges the particles into the object...

    Acording to the TNG Tech Manual the Replecators use a store of matter (Starship waste) and then uses transporter tech to reorder the matter into the required form.


  4. For the last three I was not born. and for 3 of the others I don't remember at all.

    but for 9-11 I do remember....

     

    I was coming home from work when the first plane stuck. When I finnished work I went stright to a friends house I got through the door my dad had gone round to see him as well and one of my other friends, John was there allso.

    I was just about to open my mouth to say hello when john said "Did you here? someone has blown up the world trade center" I waited for the punch line as it sounded like a joke, when he said nothing I said "And.....?" he said. "No realy." and he pointed to the TV. BBC news 24 was on with live coverage and as I watched the second plain came in. I just fell back into a chair I was horifide I couldnt speak.


  5. Well I've only had it on for 45 minutes but I think its great. it is not often you can say you are are part of a project so huge and may be one of the bigest scientific find ever. and just think if its you're computer that get the data that has the "SIGNAL". I mean what would it feel like to be the first to see if. :dude: I'm hooked.


  6. oh well I guess it's not for everyone.

     

    but as I'm up to speed with computers and the internet I know I'm not at risk. and I'm just stoked about being part of SETI. and the obviously need the help the data my system is going through at the moment is from november last year so they have a bit of a backlog


  7. This is actualy part of the SETI project. what it dose is use peoples processing power to help analise data. this is just one way people can take part in SETI. Visit there Site to have a look at what its all about.

     

     

    This is not spywhere.

     

    I've got it running at the moment It shows you the data you are analising. it is awesome to know that you are part of the search
