i knew that one slick, but roanons ideas are very nice and useful, thanx a lot

another thing I use to min/max my empire: I click on the production thing, and then on usage. this way I can check which planets of mine are using very few minerals (lets say something less than 1500 per turn) I check them and try to change my designs, buildings ques or what so ever in a way to maximize this. not useful at everytime, but a nice way to ensure that your empire is constructing at its maximum lvl.

I just wanted to say thanks again to Roanon for the trick he mentioned below about placing dummy units in the build queue starting with * for reminders. I have been using this ever since he mentioned it and it works like a champ! WOOT!

What is "root beer"?
I hear it sometimes in american TV shows but I don't know what it is, some kind of carbonated drink, like fanta or such? What does it taste like?

It is a soda (carbonated sugar water). Different brands of root beer taste different. Maybe Fanta is like root beer, not the other way around, as root beer has been around for a while. Surely there must be some American import store where you can get root beer.... I would recommend Mug brand root beer over all others, with A&W a bit behind it. Stuff like Barqs is just garbage and you should not bother drinking it.
