From a standpoint of history making decks in Europe now the European Union exists would remove importation tarriffs and likely get Turners under peoples feet for less. If Turner can show enough interest at a lower price to the Europeans- economies of scale/demand might even make it possible to offe...

So I'll ask the question - are the boards in the new production made in the shop in California?

Re: Turner Summerski Ltd - Important Announcement

Turner Summerski Ltd <i>Limited?</i> Hmm, well at least the name isn't pretentious, and you're starting off by treating the existing kick-ass employees right. All I know is I want an Aurora and whatever that squared-off black thing was that Josh made for slalom cross. <font color='white'>No matter ...

WesE, Email addresses you give as a user are not displayed in clear at any time (as far as I understand) or? Mostly they are available behind buttons which I think is the way they figured they could use to prevent spammers to get hold of them. On the memberlist/profile page there is what appears to...

There is already a place where all the races are posted, Its on the home page at ncdsa in the right hand column, I just stumbled on it the other day. Hope this helps! Ted Actually, it doesn't help, because there are racers that are barred from that site. From my point of view, it's unfair to use th...

I had a similar thing happen to me during the XML/Timing discussion. I thought I was replying to JG, but my post never showed up. Unfortunately, I was in clueless user mode rather than software developer mode, and I was not paying attention to what I was doing. I'm pretty sure I previewed first like...

Re: Publishing Excel data to the web

Does Excel offer any built-in features for publishing straight to the web? I'll send you an email directly, but just so that it's here - Excel 2003 does allow you to publish directly as a web page, and you can set it up so that the page is republished autmatically when a workbook is saved. I'm not ...

If you know someone that's a macro god, that's great, but you don't really need to have an Excel macro build the web page - if you can just save some exemplar data as XML, I can write some XSLT that will take the XML as input and run a transform into HTML. If you have a stable schema for your XML do...

Rather than build a server-centric app, you might have better results with a simple peer-to-peer app. I know I could whip up something P2P Windows-centric fairly easily if I had time, but I'm fairly clueless about Macs. On the other hand, if you want multiple viewers and not a lot of interaction, a ...

... If I would be DQ'd because I hit too many cones I'd still be interested in my time, whether it counts or not in the results. That's what I was trying to say. If we're talking about the World's, then I'd have to say that I had no trouble getting my raw time from Dan after a DQ during qualifying ...

I disagree that DQs are the most boring thing that can happen in a race. Dozens of plowed cones are fairly boring, too. Not to mention one practical aspect - seeing that some people can't be bothered to pitch in on conehead duty, it would have been difficult to manage the time constraints while scav...

Well, you can't let that sort of thing get out of hand. Once people start complimenting Lynn, people would start jumping on the bandwagon, and she'd need her own forum. And then maybe people would start complimenting other racers. And then where would we be? Compliments everywhere, no trash talking....
