... Author Info : You don't want to know.. Description : This is a _very_ large file, owing to the detail given to the level (lots of linedefs) and the shear size of the map. This map is designed primarily for single player games, but has multi-player starts, and an interesting consession for DeathMatch, though the map was not designed for DeathMatch. This map took over 150 "man-hours" to create, and outgrew both DEU 5.0 and DEU 5.1's memory allocation schemes. ...

The observers think that they are smart, but it is only thanks to these new telescopes that all the exciting recent progress has been made in the study of the high redshift universe. ... By redshift ten, some knots (where filaments and sheets join) are getting dense enough to form galaxies, and the first light in the universe switches on. ... By redshift 5, clusters of galaxies are centred on these knots. ...

From: TerryMosel@aol.com Date: Tue, 6 Aug 2002 20:22:32 EDT Subject: Eclipse - help? Comet Hi all, I have learned of a very interesting proposal to observe the next Total Solar Eclipse, on 4 December, from Mozambique, and to do a worthwhile project while there. As many of you know, the track of this eclipse crosses Southern Africa, the Indian Ocean, and ends in Australia just after sunset. ... She is negotiating with various Ministries in Mozambique (Tourism, etc) regarding this. ...
