I just thought to say, particulalry as I am now oficially a crusty old 46 yo -

While I enjoy subsims and the Silent Hunter series in particular, in your survey you need to allow for the fact that, well at least in Australia - TV is so bad now, given the choice of blind, dancing, chefs, endless gardening, building decks and home decorating shows or dumb assed talent shows, endless cops and emergency shows and all those little boys with too much gell in their hair earnestly discussing any sport you care to name - why the hell would any one watch TV if they had a half decent computer in the house!!!?????

Roll on Silent Hunter 5

Believe me, it is not just in Australia. The list of tv shows you had sounds like crappy American tv as well.

Sory mate - used to be American TV was the worst in the world hands down, a simple fact and undisputed, definatly something to feel superior about if you were from Europe or the UK.

Now forget it - there's no TV any where in the world worse than Australia, even countries that dont have TV have better TV than Australia

One thing I must say - I've rather taken to 2 & 1/2 Men - overall the show is neither here nor there but............................................... ......ROSE.............she's a goddess, she's queen - she rules....she's what made America great........................Goodness just oozes from her every pore ...............When I'm really old and crusty she can make my soup anytime.......................

The thing I like about subsim is every now and again we can drift off topic and no one really minds.

Hell its 3 o'clock iin the afternoon, I have good glass of wine and music on the PC and
...........................I"M NOT WATCHING Australian TV!!!!!!!!!

YAY

36, but stopped mentally maturing for the most part at 28. Now when I am flying I work with an older mind, say about 55 or so

I am one that sees no reason to "act your age" like I was told to so many times in my life by unhappy adults.

First subsim. Silent Service on a C-64. It became my other obsession this side of Flight Simulator.
