Well we are in Florida in a nice hotel with a not so nice internet connection.  No hard-wire in my room so I'm sitting in the lobby.  Bah. Seriously folks, what year is it?  I have already learned something on this trip: My Laptop + Beta 2 + no plugin on the plane = battery dead in 40 minutes flat.  Nice.  I know that a couple of other Wisconsin people are around so maybe I'll hook up with them this coming week.

As I mentioned in the "Simulation" article I have some fabolous (cough) graphics in a Direct 3D game I'm using as a simulation for various theory testing.  The next step was to implement some kind of AI so that the bad guys shoot back at me.  I'm almost done with the pre-simulation-simulation-tester for my neural net.  Why a neural net?  I should say before optionsScalper slams me for mis-applying the idea, wait for my next post where I justify why this notion is very fitting for mimicing how a human would look at something on a screen and try to guess at a trajectory and how to acheive it.  Stay tuned.
