*** Henninger (corbin@rtd4-6.worldaccess.nl) has joined #duke3d
<MattCake> Hey I know a way to tell if its him
*** MaxMoAWAY (MaxMouse@trt-on19-24.netcom.ca) has joined #duke3d
<MattCake> I just say 
<MattCake> FONTS?
<Henninger>  4Hi   12everybody! 
<Layre> DN: yes, actually I'm still in the process of moving some stuff, but I 
   spend most of my time here anyway so I don't even notice :)
<Layre> mattcake : <grin>
<HanK_HiLL> You know, Microsoft, (the worst company ever that actually makes 
   good stuff) even tells when software will be out almost 2 years in advance!  
   I'm amazed that 3D Realms can't even tell when a program will be out, even if 
   it is just months or so away!
*** MaxMoAWAY is now known as MaxMouse
<HanK_HiLL>  1
<D_Nukem> Layre: You're the first person that i've seen or talked to that became
