Sweats of withdrawal already! My understanding of BOINC has increased dramatically because of running this project. Thanks Capt. for that and the amazing ride. Pirates will be fondly remembered by many.

3) Message boards : General issues : Number Crunching : Treachery amongst us? Posted 6 days ago by Contact Most exciting pirate thread to date! Big respect to all here. To peg leg for his keen eye in all this and courage to report knowing full well of possible damage to personal relationship even beyond this one project. And for declining the gold bullion you show you truly are not a ‘rich man’ Respect for the Capt. for making all the right moves. Praise for one eye, not punishment. If he comes clean and helps us fix the problem, then there is no problem. Real question remains. why, dear boinc do you allow this technically I have had fleeting thoughts of doing this myself, so i’m sure have many others. This should be front page news. Brought to you by the team of peg leg and one eye. Sponsored by Pirates!

Song: Ride Captain Ride Artist: The Blues Image Seventy-three men sailed up from the San Francisco Bay Rolled off of their ship, and here's what they had to say "We're callin' everyone to ride along to another shore We can laugh our lives away and be free once more" But no one heard them callin', no one came at all 'Cause they were too busy watchin' those old raindrops fall As a storm was blowin' out on the peaceful sea Seventy-three men sailed off to history Ride, captain ride upon your mystery ship Be amazed at the friends you have here on your trip Ride captain ride upon your mystery ship On your way to a world that others might have missed (Repeat first two verses) (Chorus) Ride, captain ride upon your mystery ship Be amazed at the friends you have here on your trip

8) Message boards : General issues : Pirate Applications : starboard - xscreensaver GL graphics suite Posted 11 days ago by Contact Aaargh! Error Starting Program. A required DLL file, MSCOREE.DLL was not found. Seems we need Microsoft.Net Framework to run this app. Warning for Win98 users. I found version 1.1 runs ok, but updating .net to the newest version causes dreaded shutdown problems for this outdated OS.

9) Message boards : General issues : Pirate Applications : starboard - xscreensaver GL graphics suite Posted 12 days ago by Contact Good luck with this app. By strange coincidence I heard a tune last night that I haven?t heard in years. From now on it will remind me of Pirates@Home. Too bad they refer to the wrong coast. But I can ignore that. Ride Captain Ride.mp3
