It is a fantastic idea.
Here in India, the rich and the powerful go around thinking that the laws don't apply to them.
That is true, they buy their way out of any trouble they may have with man-made laws.
But the Law of Gravity got Sanjay Gandhi, the notorious son of Indira Gandhi. His plane crashed when he put it thru acrobatics.
Moral of the Story: One can trump man-made lawa but the Laws of Physics trump even the Rich and the Powerful!

The idea looks very interesting. I think I'll see it.

Perhaps I need to buy portions of the ocean then, as an investment.

I've noticed that these 2 obscure file formats have been popping up in my downloads (OK, I sometimes download with the ethics of Jean Lafitte & Captain Bly ... .) Anyway, I'd like to convert these to the ISO format, which I can handle with 7Zip. I know of PowerISO & MagicISO, but they seem to have a limit in the size of the file (at least the free version does.) So I figure that someone here knows the perfect free utility that has this functionality.
Thanks

The irony, herr Bly, of looking for a "perfect free utility" is quite spectacular.
Bravo.

OK, I've done some digging and came to a collection on nice little utilities by a guy named Luigi, and he had some very simple, but effective, programs daa2iso & uif2iso, which will suffice for me. Of course, if there is a nice looking, free application out there that does this, that would still be nice to know.

Caution: do not give Luigi's brother, the one in the silk-suit, Guido, your real e-mail address.

I have an idea for a murder mystery. I'd like to write a book, but I don't have the first clue how to start.
Anyone here published? Can you offer some insight?

Write the book.

Routes
1- Know someone personally
2- Have a widely known reputation via some aspect of your life not associated with writing.
3- Have a very well written book and get very lucky.
4- Prior art:
i. Have a fairly large amount of money and self publish and distribute
ii. Publish good short work on the internet and wait until someone asks for more. To be fair this is basically creating 2 above.

It's like coding, art or anything else everyone has there own style.
Write an outline then fill.
Just start writing.
???
Biggest thing is to sit down and devote time to it. First step...
