  1. Sounds good. I'll see you sometime Friday. :-)
  2. Great! I'm looking forward to it! Do you know around what general time frame (and which time zone) it will run?
  3. Yes, it was for a newspaper article. You need to get a combination of company and government approval to visit the plant. They screen all participants to make sure it's for legit work.
  4. Yeah, it was a crazy day. I was only at the plant for two hours, but received about a week worth of radiation. I was so sleepy the next day that I hardly had the energy to get up. I've been there twice. I was also in one of the restricted towns next to the plant for a few hours in which I also has a similar level of exposure. Nothing to worry about, but enough to drain my energy the next day. Here is a photo one of the AP photographers took of me at the plant. Behind me is the fuel pool in reactor #4. This building suffered structural damage due to an explosion, but the reactor and fuel pool were mostly intact. A shell building was constructed around the old structure by the time of this photo, so it looks as if there is no damage. Really quite impressive to see how they were able to get this much done. The main issue now is still the cleanup of the site. It's highly doubtful that Fukushima can be taken care of in my lifetime. We are just one small disaster away from a far bigger one. It's really quite a thought to know that our children born after this disaster will be the ones to inherit this monumental task.
  5. Great! Thanks! So then, my suggestion still stands. :-)
  6. Thanks for the friendly reminder. Can I host the file on my persoanl onedrive for download?
  7. Hi, I downloaded it and ran it on my game. Seems to work fine. No issues with it at all as far as malware goes. Here are some more screenshots from it:http://activegamer.net/et/map/697-Springfield_%28Beta%29.html NOTE: The original downlad link no longer works. Took me a bit of time and effor to find this one. (EDIT #2) Seems that someone deleted the working link from my original post. I assure you there is nothing wrong with the file. Should I upload it to my onedrive and give a link to that?
  8. Hi, I would like to suggest a map for the beginners 1 server: "Springfield". The map is based off of the Simpsons cartoon. It looks pretty good. It took me a couple of hours, but I finally managed to find it again. You can download it from: Please let me know if you plan to use it so I can join in on the game. Thanks! (EDIT) Seems the concerns regarding the server are solved. The file is clean. There is a new link for the file on post #5. Please try it out and give it a go on the beginners server. I would love to play on FA.
