'Will the Kat accept Plato in the Bar and Grill?' This statement surprises me young man, it implies you seek his aproval for something that needs no aproval. Indeed, if the Kat were to try and excercise a "No Phillosophors Allowed" I'd be forced to unsheath my pen and write volums of Philosophy on the Bar's walls. (especially on the stalls in the washrooms) There would be a spectacular battle as philosophers from all around the world joined in the heated discussion of,.. oops, sorry, my Master's degree in Philosophy is peeking out again..

Man, you could go to town with a Plato avatar, you could tease the Kat to no end refering to him as 'simpleton', and disect his every post until it becomes meaningless. You could pick a phrase in any of his posts and reveal it's true meaning,..

To Paraphrase Plato,.. "You can subject every post to the full force of critical thinking, until nothing certain remains.

I can see it now,.. "The Brain Wars".. lol

Cheers!

Sounds like a plan! Of course, I will insist on being allowed to quote Plato, Socrates and other philosophers in their own tongue (Ancient Greek in this case), to make the whole thing even more interesting. It *is* war after all, so all weapons are game.

Oh, and I cast my ballot for the superposition thing; it's definitively fitting. And yet another reason to give a full 4 stars for Puke!

1) Copy url. Make sure it ends in an image format, .jpg in this case. You do not want any php code.
2) Click on My Home near the top right of the forum.
3) Under Main Configuration, click on the Edit button next to "Personal information, email, password, etc."
4) Towards the bottom, locate the option with the caption "URL to your avatar (48x48 max pixels, may be smaller) (.gif, .jpg, .png accepted)." Select this option. Paste the URL found in step 1 into the box just below the text.
5) Click on Submit button.
6) Show off shiney new avatar.

If you like that one and want to use it, then perhaps David will "do that thing he does so well around the edges" to make it a bit spiffier.

And don't feel obliged to keep it. Something that's "you" might come along any day now.
