Responsibility, Java, Weight

[From Rick Marken (970119.1515 PST)]

Me:

You're disrupting the silence over here on CSGNet;-)

Bruce Gregory (970119.1550 EST) --

Zzzzzzzz. Zzzzzzzz. Zzzzzz.....

Ok. You didn't wake up the important people on the East Coast. But
please try to be more _responsible_ in the future;-)

By the way, has anyone tried my "Selection of consequences"
demo? If so, any comments?

Martin Taylor -- I tried installing Internet Explorer (IE) with the JIT
(just in time) Java compiler but when I run it I just get an error that
says "not enough memory to run Java". I've tried allocating mega amounts
of memory to IE and that doesn't help. The same thing happens when I run
IE with regular Java. This is very infuriating because
Microsoft says IE 3.0 with JIT runs great on a Power PC Mac (which I
have). So I've given up. I'm waiting for Gates to return my call.
But I don't think IE with JIT will make much difference in the
appearance of the animation in the demos. It says that it speeds the
processing but _not_ the graphics; as far as I can tell, the background
calculations don't seem to account for much of the speed of
the animation. But I may be wrong. I really want to see what the demos
look like with the JIT compiler but I can't until I figure out why I'm
getting the memory error. Any clues?

Bruce Abbott, Bill Powers -- any news about the weight control
study?

Best

Rick

It looks great. Worked very well for me. Scrolling is a little jerky,
but the graphics work smoothly.

Rick, it works great. Your website is really developing nicely. Have
you considered doing research on the Web based on people who sign in?
