Wrong. Whatever color you see is the color that is reflected, not absorbed.
Exactly. The car would absorb some of every wavelength but green, just as plants do. So more cars that are green would mean less effective sunlight to share with plants.

he color of cars doesnt really make a difference, green doesnt contribute to anything
Yeah it does, if a car is green, it absorbs the exact wavelengths of light plants need to photosynthesize. If plants don't photosynthesize, most will die.
A bit ironic since Banjo Kazooie was really a standard platformer, as you said, which is similar in every way to other platformers... Particularly done by Rare.
Though I'll agree that they were my favorites as a kid. Banjo Kazooie and DK64, yeah.
Oh, and a suggestion: go to class before buying a textbook. Your professor may address the textbook issue and say you won't need it, and if he doesn't bring the topic up, ask him.
As you can see, I would've greatly benefited from holding off the calculus book purchase.
I've got The Orange Box for the 360 and would like to get into TF2, but since it's only online and I have no experience playing it, I'd feel odd being the only guy not knowing how to play.

I see people using "lolxD" a lot, it's kind of annoying. How does one pronounce "XD", anyway? Does it have phonetic spelling? Or what?
You don't pronounce it dude, it's just like any other smilie.

DVD will take a long while to die, so if you're hesitant in spending all the cash, don't do it.
I haven't watched any blu-ray movies on my HDTV, though as soon as the PS3 Slim comes out, I'm sure I will. I'll probably still buy DVDs, but if there's a movie with awesome effects that I want, I'll get it blu-ray.

My new problem is that it now can't find a connection point, even though one is plugged into my computer, and working.
Are other channels having trouble connecting to the Internet or is it just Brawl?

Just got to miss sleeping for a night or 2.
I used to have the same problem as OP a few summers ago, and I tried that. It's true that you wake early in the morning, but after that I just stayed up late again and the bad sleeping cycle continued.
So if there's a reason you're staying up too late (addicted to some game or computer), your best bet is to ease yourself off and then you won't feel the need to stay up too late. From there attempt to get to bed around 11:00 (maybe try reading first).
I can't help you with your thread topic, but my advice to you would be to wait until noon time to post an inquiry thread in Video Games. This forum can be slower than others during peak hours, and past midnight it can take a long time for someone to reply.
It's unfortunate for me because late at night is usual when I think of threads I want to make.

Been using XP on my mac for a while, never wanted to get Vista. Now that Windows 7 is near release, i'll probably upgrade to it once mac also gets an upgrade this autumn. Another reason to upgrade is that I've been using FAT32 for the longest time, never thought about formatting to NTFS until recently.
I also use a Mac and am interested in also having Windows 7. Do you know of any sites which give a simple tutorial on using Boot Camp or whatever other application used to do this?
