MilkDrop....cool!!!
by truman init is a winamp plugin program which synchronizes amazingly varied, constantly morphing visualizations with music.
i saw it for the first time last night, and i thought is was extremely cool.

R&F at fault for Armaggedon delay
by truman inwell, another issue of the wt came today, aug 15,2001. and again it has some statements which piqued my ire, so i thought i would share a couple.. on pg.28, paragraph 14, in the study article titled 'do not give up in doing what is fine'is the following:.

' (2 peter3:9) notice, god is 'patient with you'--members of the christian congregation.
