human eye fps: tests have shown that the human eye can detect at least 1/220th of a second. No offence, but try searching online. I don't agree with the sentiments on that page, but its URL certainly makes sense to me.

Jazzy, you don't like Tony Mac? I personally think he's great, but I'm not a huge Colson fan. However, he's got a hot cousin? exxxcellent. hehe
You know, it's really refreshing to see someone my age in the US understanding a more realistic point of view on the middle eastern crisis! I don't mean for that to sound at all patronising by the way. hehe. Anyway yeah, I agree on the complete lack of exit strategy for iraq. I guess there was the general assumption that we/they wouldn't need one, cause by the time the 'allies' had 'liberated' Iraq, they'd have an open ended pass to come and go as they please, because they would be seen as gods among men. What a load of crap.
Also, I hate how the whole thing has been arranged on western political terms, ie. "if we do this, they will do this because they couldn't morally do anything other than that" which is completely misguided, when you're dealing with a foreign culture. All the planning should have been under the guidance of somebody who understands the culture and faith on which the middle east is built.
fan-f*ck*n-tastic, Juan Pablo Montoya has won the brazillian Grand Prix. And Kimi came 2nd, with Shumacher a lowly 7th. What a fine way to end the season. Way to go Juan Pablo!
Mr Nick/people talkin about frames. A Video Game at 60 fps doesn't necessarily mean we see at more than that. It actually probably means we see at about half that.
If you see at 30 frames per second, you want to watch at more than that to maximise the chance that your brain will register every frame, giving a smooth transition in sequences of movement. If you see at 30fps and are watching a projection of 30fps, there is a higher chance that the projection and reception will get out of sync, and the transitions will look jerky.
This is why sound is commonly recorded and played at twice the maximum wavelength the human ear can communicate. It's a mechanism to ensure that your ears will recieve all frequencies (tones, sounds, wavelenghts) and not miss anything out.
I hope that makes some kinda sense...
Joe, wake up and smell the coffee........Andy Timmons for future G3 DVD! hehe, just kidding about the "wake up..." bit but totally not kidding about Andy! He rocks and you know it!
Hope you have an excellent time in South America with Robert!
edit:
I just heard that the local newspaper of George W's home-town in Texas, voted for John Kerry. In response, George W is trying to get said newspaper shut down.

OpticalStudio- what did you record in '03? Was it original material, covers, or what style? I know what you mean, the experience of recording music is great. I would be grateful to hear any info or advice you have about home recording equipment, as I will be looking into that at some point! In England everything is so much more expensive though. Sometimes I feel like I can't even draw breath in London without it costing me quids! Thanks for your good wishes.
All the best with your moving house stuff- we are in the middle of a house move so know how it feels... we had some idiot pull out the day before our contracts got exchanged... still! Fingers crossed for you too.
ATN, SGs ROCK!!

jelly man - Wow! I just listened to those sound clips, and I'll definitely pick up that Neal Morse album. I don't know much about Neal (or Spock's Beard), but he recorded that album with Phil Keaggy AND Mike Portnoy? Awesome.
Suzie2000 - "I do think it a bit dumb though in hotels in England (and maybe elsewhere, I don't know) how they never have a room 13."
That's also true at some hotels here. There won't be a room 13 or a floor 13.
Mr Nick - You have to save the file as an HTML file, not a Word file. After that, right-click on the file and open it with your web browser.
opticalstudio - The link worked...congrats! ;-)
962 - "I just heard that the local newspaper of George W's home-town in Texas, voted for John Kerry."
"Endorsed" is more accurate than "voted for", but yes.
"In response, George W is trying to get said newspaper shut down."
Where did you hear that? I'm fairly familiar with this story and I haven't heard that anywhere. So, unless that bit of news broke within the past few hours, I'd have to say it isn't true.
The newspaper might go out of business because it has been flooded with complaints from its readers and local businesses have refused to sell it...but those things have nothing to do with Bush. Those things are a result of the newspaper taking an editorial position that opposes the position held by the majority of its readers. Click here for more info...
Also, for what it's worth, the Lowell Sun, Kerry's hometown newspaper, has endorsed Bush. Click here...

DCK: You like Tony Mac? I have heard his solo stuff and see him with Vai and wasnt impressed. Not my style, sorry. Well, I know that you dont like John 5 or Slash. I think these are some of the most kick ass guitarists out there.
Optical Studio: Moving out? Shoot man. That sucks. I know whats its like going back to the hometown. I sure dont ever want to go back to my hometown (Burnsville, MN). That place used to drive me insane! I always thought the Mall of America was a piece of shit! The only place they sold guitars at was Sam Goody. Growing up next to world's biggest mall can lead to severe depression!
962: Thanks man! Tony Mac...I can see why people like him, but he never pressed my button! dont know why, just isnt my style. People can call me silly for saying he sucks, but I dont give a shit.
and yes, colson's cousin sis is exxxcellent! lol!

962 - Jazzersise,
I just heard that the Aurora colorado "Thrifty Nickle newspaper" endorses Bush. "yuk Yuk, Ug-gug"
I thought you were for thinking for yourselves?

Edit -
The newspaper you are referring to is a little circulation that started in 2000 and only publishes once a week. But you seen the headlines and developed an opinion, just like Mr. Kerry does. Come on guys you can be better informed than that! Big paper here

Jazzy, you used the words Tony Macalpine and sucks in the same sentence. Precisely which of his projects and solo work (other than the obviously extremely confining limitations he is forced to work under with Steve) have you heard to come up with that gem of a statement?

Suzie 2000 Great you are thinking on studing, I like to think that any profesional that has to be in contact with human beens has to be the most trained ones, because if we do not know how to approuch to the ones that we are trying to help, we may hurt them in the worst way someone can be hurt Emmotional and psychologicaly.
So keep on the hard work, I like to think as if we are just a bridge between god's love and the one that needs help; we are just the way gods approuchs to them.

I love Joe's "Up in the Sky" from Crystal Planet. A week ago at the Beacon Theatre, he opened his show with this song. It was rip-roarin' rendition. I was thinking about it more after the show, and I realized what a classic song this was for a set-opener! But then it became clear that Joe has many tunes which fall into the catergory of great gig-openers.
So during this political season, how about another type of poll. What would all of you say is Joe's best live-show opener?
(In my opinion, criteria should be that the song has got to get people out of their seats, it's got to be amazing to both listen to and to watch being played by Joe, and it's got to get show off on the right foot.)
Thoughts?

jazzzzzzzy i have not seen the VAI band live.. but the astoria dvd, shows t-mac giving mr vai a good run for his money. Mike keneally totay owned Vai.. but hey.. i think John 5 is over hyped and slash is terrible but still better than kirk hammett. I personally like Keneally in the Vai band better..does Dave weiner do anything in vai's band? just curious..oh well just my 2 cents..lol
