However, 2 big flaws that will keep me form playing it! You can't see ships when they shoot at you because the zoom is way to tight and the info blogs flip too quickly to read. Back to the first complant How can you shoot something that in off the sceen and !!!!! how can something off the screen shoot you???????? even games that have bad grrapics, no sound, and no fun follow basic rules. So, because I can't target invisible ships, I will not be able to play your game even though I really want to. Also, If you were the creators of 1066 you need to do some work on that game as well. The idead of this game is great!

Lively Sun, 28 Feb 2010 21:57:32 +0000 http://andyperkins.org/?p=148#comment-17 I am interested in your "Snake Oil?" chart. I personally have found some of the things below the "Worth It" line that definitely work for me. I know that not all the herbal suppliments work well, depending on the guaranteed potency, and freshness of the product. For example, Saw Palmetto work for me. However, Echinacea, I just don't know. I understand that your stats are from scientific information, but really, how many studies have been done on these. As far as I know, not many have went through that much testing because companies or people don't want to spend the money. I take the herbs, whether "science" has proved them or not. Most of the ones I take work. If you want a list, I will send them along. Thanks! <em>[AP - Full information on the nature, results and scope of the studies can be found in the original article linked to above. I am pleased to hear that some of the supplements found to be of little use in large, human, randomized placebo-controlled trials *do* work for you, however I am sure you understand that creating an infographic based on personal anecdotes rather than hard scientific data would be both near impossible, and mostly useless. ]</em> I am interested in your “Snake Oil?” chart.
