Having watched the video, the bar and meeting rooms do look "classic" but I wonder if preserving the hotel is the only way to to preserve that? They could easily store the furniture and maybe recreate those elements in the new hotel.

A friend was having trouble understanding animating his birds, so I made a short video on how to use the Prim Animation Compiler.   I use this script almost every day in pets and doors,  or anything that needs to move around, like the fins on the Blue Whale, and piles of rocks that fall down.  It works on attachments, too, so it's useful for things like shoulder pets.

The script and detailed instructions is at http://www.outworldz.com/secondlife/posts/prim-compiler/

Just did a search on that MAC OUTLOOK search issue, and found this. Emailed the link to my supervisor. Seems really odd that MS would hide it this way.

"Flying Car" is a concept that's been around for at least a hundred years.

"Flying Car" is a concept that's been around for at least a hundred years. Authorities aren't that keen to have flying cars, and in general a pilot's license is needed as well. That sort of limits how many will be out there.
