Most of the people on my list are from Classic:

1. Tyhm (Tyhm) - for obvious reasons.
2. DarkCloud_PK (Dark Cloud) - he and I had a lot of fun on Classic, even though it usually resulted in me getting jailed/banned.
3. Demisis_P2P (Demisis?) - we don't even talk, but he/she seems pretty funny from messages on these forums.
4. Terazel Tenjin (Terazel Tenjin) - talk(ed) to him quite a bit, but only occasionly now, through the forums, and sometimes MSN (I uninstalled Graal).
5. p2p_Sir_Link (Kevin Azite) - pretty much the same reasons as Terazel and DC combined.

People who missed the list: Door, Vincent, Jay, Googi and Kaimetsu (the last two would have to be at the same time, so I can watch them fight to the death).

Lord Sephioth, Hell Raven, Unknown Mirage, Evenglare and Grey.

Suppose I only really picked people who post on the forums because there are some others who rank high enough to mention, but no one would know.

Going to meet a few this summer too.

Lots of Old people too like Toran, 2k, Hack, Kamikaze, Genmo, etc.

I routinely visit Louisville when Lanwar rolls around. I live within the same state. (South of Lexington) It takes like an hour or two for me to get to Louisville. Sometimes I go there for concerts as well.

Lol, Kentucky. I have family living in Tennessee. And that's completely irrelevant.

I used to live in Kokomo, Indiana. It's a city known for a barely audible noise (A low hum) that has caused people to fall ill over time. It's also known for its inventors and mechanical engineers. (Which I guess contributes a lot to my love of machinery.)

Well, I actually read a report on it (The actual PDF of the original document that was scanned.) and a lot of it has been traced back to some of the factories that are around the area. Some sound engineers took acoustic readings in the houses of people who complained about it, and found that it would sometimes be present in some parts of the house, and not in others, or in specific spots.

The noise is a low-frequency hum at less than 20 Hz. (Lower than the ordinary scope of human hearing, which is 20 Hz to 20,000 KHz, I believe.) The areas emitting the noise have been silenced, but it's still present.

I actually found a program some months ago used to generate hums at the frequency you specify, and could slightly hear noises above and below the ordinary range of hearing. However, after turning the sound way up and listening for a while, I started to feel sort of sick to my stomach as well, and got a headache. Same goes for when the pitch of the hum was above or at 20,000 KHz. If you want an idea of what a high-pitched hum like that sounds like, I believe ads are still being played for 'the messengers' or whatever that mentions them.

I remember reading about that somewhere. Can't imagine how a low hum would make you feel sick, though. Pretty interesting stuff. Why did that low hum NOT go away after the emmiters were silenced?

Damn I'm tired. Good night.

Well, I actually read a report on it (The actual PDF of the original document that was scanned.) and a lot of it has been traced back to some of the factories that are around the area. Some sound engineers took acoustic readings in the houses of people who complained about it, and found that it would sometimes be present in some parts of the house, and not in others, or in specific spots.

The noise is a low-frequency hum at less than 20 Hz. (Lower than the ordinary scope of human hearing, which is 20 Hz to 20,000 KHz, I believe.) The areas emitting the noise have been silenced, but it's still present.

I actually found a program some months ago used to generate hums at the frequency you specify, and could slightly hear noises above and below the ordinary range of hearing. However, after turning the sound way up and listening for a while, I started to feel sort of sick to my stomach as well, and got a headache. Same goes for when the pitch of the hum was above or at 20,000 KHz. If you want an idea of what a high-pitched hum like that sounds like, I believe ads are still being played for 'the messengers' or whatever that mentions them.

Very, Interesting. And Draenin...I am curious who do YOU want to meet? How about a certain guy who almost made you change pants? (hint hint)
