We can meet at a bar somewhere at a central location to those that live in around the Toronto area!

Cheers,

Sounds like a great Idea

Seems that there are enough MURCers around TO

Tjalfe, I am biased as I only visited Canada once in summer 1992. They tell me that was a particularly bad summer. All I know is that I didn't expect overnight lows of 4 degrees Celcius and high temperatures in the teens in the beginning of July. I haven't been back since, but having experienced a mild English winter I might be tempted to visit one summer (Lots of cousins in Montreal, Ottawa, and Toronto, Aunt in Manitoba [100m NORTH of Winnepeg] etc.)

About that NTSC business, I must say that I prefer watching an NTSC TV to a PAL TV. Less flicker. Of course watching on a monitor screen I could care less

That's what 100 Hz PAL TV sets are for

Most summers in Toronto are frickin' hot and frickin' humid. Last summer ('02) was particularly bad. I think we set a record for the most consecutive days above 30C. Somthing like 25 days straight. This summer was quite pleasant in comparison. Averaged in the high 20s. Had a bit of a cold snap last week, down into the low teens, but today it's back up the around 25C.

Also, Montreal is a great city, even for english folk like me. I have a friend who's lived there most of his life, and he's an english speaking jewish guy. Sure, the french people have some whacky ideas with their language laws and such, but they're mostly nice people. I've spent many a long weekend barhopping around the downtown area until like 5am. Never had a problem.

heh,,.... you should see the wether here in summer.... its usualy around 35c hits 40 somtimes.. high humidity all the time... even now its around 30cand a few below.....


and btw... NTSC has less scan lines than PAL...

I'm so confusd I don't even know what my COC position is!!!

But yeah, would be cool to meet you in person. Whenever you get to Canada, send me a pm and we'll do lunch or something eh?

[SpiralDragon]

ROTFLMAO ........ long live the MURC COC....


i would love to meet you and the others in person...

[SpiralDragon]

but zokes... you have to promise to get your lovely avatar along with you

[K6-III]

I wish you the best in this fine endeavor!

...oh...and perhaps we could indeed do a MURC gettogether in Canada...would be quite fun!

Given that I'm in minnesota, a few hundred km south of the Canadian border, it shouldn't be too expensive to get to Canada and then take the train (I take it that the train system in Canada is quite a bit better than Amtrack)

Good luck SD

Hope you get through the last hurdle.

We have a train system?

Seriously though, Via Rail is pretty good on the Windsor-Toronto-Montreal corridor, but elsewhere I couldn't tell ya.
