Calling my arty friends...

I'd like to know the next time a Tom Stoppard play is going to be on in Edinburgh.

What service can I sign up to that will tell me when it's going to happen?

Yes, I am working, why do you ask?

A conversation that recently occurred over email:

Nick:

Dunno if you guys already know but there's a demo of AvP3 out. It's just one multiplayer level with limited weapons but hey, AvP :-)  I'm not sure if I'm man enough to play another AvP game. They're scaaaaary

Andy:
Aliens _and_ Predators?  In  the same game?

I'm not sure I can handle terror of that magnitude.

It's how you ask the question that matters

The New York Times took a poll.  They asked half the people whether they thought that gay men and lesbians should be allowed to serve openly in the US army.  60% said yes.  They asked the other half whether they thought that homosexuals should be allowed to serve openly in the US army.  44% said yes.

One can only assume that people are made of crazy.  And stupid.

Know anything about stats?

I don't know enough, my resident stats hottie has a headache from staring at a screen all day, and I'd really appreciate whatever useful info you can add to this thread on this post, as to whether the differences are actually significant.

Thanks!
