To all you AC Transit bus drivers who are on a "sickout":
Have you considered the consequences of your actions?
Where is your compassion?
I was on the bus the other day and the bus driver decided not to stop at a regular stop. One not affected by the recent changes in schedule. He then stopped about 5 blocks away from the stop where he should have even though it was requested by the several elderly people on the bus. When they asked him what they were supposed to do now because they can har... Continue reading ...

So, I have been playing the PC version of Dragon Age: Origins. Yeah, I am a big fantasy RPG fan.
As I play more RPG's and read more fantasy a few questions come to mind. Questions that I am not sure have been satisfactorily answered in the past.
1. How can you dispell a spell with a spell? Isn't that like trying to dry up water with more water?
