Just wondering, once you reach 'Masters' do you stop being part of Gaia? Brianna just has, and I've noticed it doesn't have the little dot and Gaia's name next to her box anymore. (though this is a good thing in my opinion)
I know it makes me sound like an internet snob, but for God's sake stop paying up the wazoo for a service that does nothing but penalize your use of the internet. Yes, I mean AOL. Sorry, I'm still pissed at them for flooding my mailbox with mailing after non-biodegradable mailing, even after I ask them to just leave me alone.
Ooohies, I got post 666! 
I'm not sure about the Gaia thing yet. I just felt like posting
As for the name thing, you are the second one that asked that. My computers background used to have all these trees (namely, a forest...) with these creepy eyes in the background. I just came out with, 'Looks like a forest of death or something!' and that's how it stuck. I'm sad like that. Did that even answer your question?

Theory on word omissions:
A: Can you explain to me how to change a tire?
B: I'd like to see you to you to modification a tire first.
Looks to me like there's a blank response among the synonyms, so words sometimes get dropped when hunting for rephrasing. Seems like others have fit this pattern too. Whatcha think, Prof?

three big problems there...
1. "to me" = "to you" ... this should not have come back in (subj), should it have?
2. "change" (verb) to "modification" (noun). Modify would have been much more acceptable (and kind of funny
)
3. "how" was completely dropped.

Well,
1. actually is fine -- (subj) would have been "explain to me how to change a tire" in this case as the trigger was "can you" not "can you explain". So the translation "to you" was exactly right.
2. just so. I don't think there's any simple grammatical rule that would help though!
3. both "how" AND "explain" were completely dropped in this case!

Forest: You *should* still have a Gaia thingy, my bot's at doctor and still does. Maybe it has something to do with Gaia recently being cleaned up...or something... *shrugs*
AOL isn't nearly as bad as everybody says it is. Sure, now that I am quite a bit more accustomed to the internet than I was, say, 5 years ago(about 50 times more accustomed), I don't need the practically idiot-proof features of AOL(they seem to pride themselves on being easy to use). I get about 95% spam, but I don't think tha'ts AOL's fault. AOL is basically a lot like any other ISP, only with a lot of features designed for stupid people(oh, IE is a better browser in some ways).
