    well, I rarely listen to music when playing any mod whatsoever.(to add to the " realistic" atmosphere). in fact, music was never very interesting (tone deafness is partial, but does affect this. cultural and personal concerns add to the problem). when i do, its either the EB music, or just about the only band i listen to (a.k.a rammstein-mein herz brennt is preffered, or spieluhr perhaps? Nebel is nice too. all of them have a sadish/ etheral tone, but i'm a sad fellow).

Saltpeter is/ was often made of the stuff. cow urine can be use to make a wierd red ink, and can be used to treat wool (if your last name is fuller, then an ancester was knee deep in it curing wool). but now I'm getting into the world of urine.

    Moral: have imagination. even the seemingly insignifigant can be an asset....that's what got us humans with outr present state.

    sources:

    1-some special on TV
    2-I read articles in Nat. geographic, Collier's encyclopedia, me school book, and talked to a person who actually handels the stuff (Mrs. tarrent).
    3-ever heard of Karen Chen? she can teach you how to use fossil poop to open your narrow mind on the use of dung in paleontology

    I have to admit all of this is pretty impressive and ingenious, but how much of the manure actually gets processed? Haven't really seen manure-processing plants any time lately.

    2 of london's electric genrators do run on the waste of poeple. Calcutta obtains a good deal of the food from using the stuff to grow food, and breed fish. and the batteries are a common sight in parts of southern india. its also widely used as fuel in the said place (India).

    poeple in the west admittedly don't process it lto the level of hindus, but this is due to cultural considerations, not due to usefulness level/ efficiency (as said, they're surprisingly efficient). poeple like you don't help either. I believe the west needs to pay more attention to it, and learn not to fear it too much (call me mad, but if its useful=use it to the max, and over use it if one must). bear in mind, if done properly, they can be surprisingly safe (yes, I'm considering the health hazards.)

    anyways, i'm wasting time and post space here trying to do the things TW fanatic warns against in his sig. I won't reply to any comment BTW.

    Actually, some Sinatra is quite soothing after a hard-fought battle. But mostly listen tho the EB-music, though. It really gets you in the EB-mood.

    The very fact that you have to ask that, really just proves my point.

    Why has this turned into an Aemilius Paulus Debate AND music discussion? I came here to talk about music! But since everyone else is giving in their 2 cents, so will I. Ahem: He seems to be an interesting fellow, and that is all I will say. I love music, though, and many of the things on his despise list. More for me, I say.

    Anyway, I listen to the EB music, but really epic stuff is fun too. Sonata Arctica, I suppose, but some classical epic stuff. Like Trans-Siberian Orchestra. They have a version of Beethoven's Fifth that is made for epic Sweboz campaign. I need to stop using the word epic.

    I share the opinion of Aemilius Paulus when it comes to really loud music, I hate having to scream to talk, it doesen't matter if it is Heavy Metal or Gregorian Chants if they are loud I don't like them, but I like Listening to music if I control the volume wich usually is quite low.

    In EB I Listen to the EB music generally but somethimes I listen Nightwish for those hard bloody battles.
