Over at the German Simforum (www.simforum.de) we have a nice thread for all kind of news. Its name is "Wussted ihr schon, dass ..." (German equivalent to this threads name).
Rules are easy:
- Each paragraph begins with the title of thread and is therefore a question in indirect speach.
- Instead of writing it all the times it can be replaced by three dots.
- news may be on topic or off topic.
- double posts should be avoided unless a lot of time has passed in between them.
And as always no rude comments etc .
So let me begin with the first news:
... there is a "Did You Already Know That ..." thread here at Sc4devotion, too?
... I hope you like ths thread and use it frequently?
Have fun!
Bernhard :thumbsup:
...I occasionally have been reading that corresponding thread over at simforum? :)
...I thought it was a good way of communicating ideas and small talk?
Good initiative, Bernhard! :thumbsup:

... I do hope it's not becoming any/much longer?
...It was easier and cheaper to get my PS3 repaired from a third party all the way in the big city then dealing with Sony not repairing it by replacing it with something that did not have reverse PS2 playback?
...Your better off getting an exterior hard drive or any electronic device repaired by a third party rather then sending it to the manufacturer who will not fix their own mistakes contrary to their warranty?

...I love flying, except when in Portugal
...The economy is getting better
...I wasn't up 'til 2am last night (yay!)

function CountChildren(ChildrenNumberNow : word; datum : TDate) : word;
const XMas : TDate = (24.12.2010);
begin
CountChildren := ChildrenNumberNow;
if datum >= Weihnachten then inc(CountChildren)
end;
