And not just by the NSA, the FBI, the Chinese, the North Koreans, Curtis, or the Democratic National Committee



I've seen the little critter show up under BB's posts all day. Not the typical bug associated with computers, eh?

Huh. I just thought that was how Brant cut code.

it's a feature, not a bug

^Well, I tried to shoo your "feature" away from my monitor before I figured out "the problem was not with my set", as they used to say on The Outer Limits   ;D

Heh.  I thought it was an actual bug on my screen as well.  I do see them flying around the family room (where my PC is located) from time to time, so I wasn't going to notice one more.  ::)

One of the guys over at the Matrix forums who worked on Panzer Command:Karkov had that as his avatar so I was 'in the know' as well.

Years ago, as I ripped open a copy of Avalon Hill's "Title Bout", I discovered that somehow....somehow the image of a cockroach had been lithographed on a corner of the game board. The creepy crawler must have been running around looking for a meal or something and ended up in the wrong place. I know that many boxing gyms are rather run down, but that was a level of detail which was completely unexpected   8)

I thought it weird, then actually quite a neat feature. :)
