There are hundreds of 2d frameworks out there, you tell me which it was. Example code from "Learn C# in 5 seconds", possibly? The A* Path Finding algorithm is as old as the hills.

True, true, quite beneath me. My AI and path finding programming was for the real world: production scheduling and control software. You know, running factories: machine assembly, semiconductor fabrication, metal rolling, that sort of thing. Great for the paperless office, too.

True. If I live as long as my father, I have 19 years left. If I live as long as my mother, I have 1 year left. But you are a druggie, and could OD tomorrow.

This one, though it does seem to resemble another recent argument. You're claiming that to be a "global phenomenon", it has to affect everything. I'm saying it only indicates that the effect is in multiple parts of the globe, instead of confined to one region.
Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?
Author of the Guardians Saga (Sci-Fi/Fantasy novels)Well thats a pretty slack deffinition of global. How about if there were floods in two parts of the world, would you call that global? Or an outbreak of foot an mouth disease, would you call it global? How about inside a country. If two counties in England had outbreaks of foot and mouth would you call that national?

So human recorded history = Scottish recoded history? That's what I mean - you make broad sweeping statements that when challenged you have to retract. BTW is there a temperature record that stretches back to the beginning of even Scottish recorded history?

Oh come on, first I stated Scottish, and you said is that for ever, I said no, within human history, and now you claim I have stated human history equals scottish history. Dont be such a wazzuk.

No - you said (as in the coldest EVER) (you even emphasized it by using capitals), I just pointed out that this was an exaggeration. Somewhat similar to claims in previous threads, e.g. that we had "centuries" of weather balloon data that should be preferred to satellite data. Given your tendency to berate various people for inaccuracies (you generally refer to them as lies) it seems reasonable to call you to account.

Two? Probably not. Three or four, if they might be related in terms of cause? Sure.

H1N1 was considered a global pandemic. Does that mean every single person on Earth was infected? No. It just means it spanned multiple geographic regions.

Again... Two? Probably not... Several in different parts of the country, sure. Like I said, it's a bit ambiguous. Doesn't mean it's wrong.

Then you have a pretty fucking bizare deffinition of Global. How about in ecconomics, would you describe a recesion as global if it effected Brazil, Australia, Malasyia and Kazakstan because of a massive slump in metal ore prices?

You said "is that for ever?". Makes sense with quotes and a question mark?

Never said such a thing - you are making a false attribution that is easily checked by looking through the replies.

It wasnt a litteral quote. You actually wrote: "It was colder in the Ice Age." In the form of a question. I replied by saying in human history. You then say is human history equal to scottish history. If all you want to do it be a pedant and create stupid arguments out of nothing then I shall for ever ignore you.

Nah, but if it hit the US, Japan, the UK, and a few other countries, sure... Not exactly the same thing, though, because in terms of economy, some countries are more significant than others.

So it depends on the significance of the country? Would you say then that a heatwave in Patagonia, SOuth Africa and Siberia was a "Global Phenomenom"?
Morality is indistinguishable from social proscription
An ECONOMIC event would depend on the significance of the country's economy, at least in my opinion. That has nothing to do with a heat wave. Are you going to start equating economics with climatology now?
