#road 8

it's very much irrational, and I am aware of it, and I know it stems from my personal grievances on moral purity. thus, if I were given a chance to get one wish, I might end up doing something horrible before I talk myself out of it. so, I would give that chance to others, given that they have better intentions and control than I do

SkyRoads was a DOS game written and published by, among other people, Jaan Tallinn, later the founder of Skype. The music was written on an Amiga in Oktalyzer and converted to work with the OPL2 chip common on IBM-compatible PCs; the sample-to-FM conversion gave it a distinctive sound. BlueMoon's website says: "Because of the FM to sample conversion, the music sounded quite different at the time of producing compared to actual game. Some instruments just sounded completely different, especially percussions. ... Also for some weird reason game versions sound half tone higher."

Moss-Covered Tree Dinner Island Ranch WMA, near Immokalee FL - February 2017 http://michael-massa-micon.tumblr.com This very interesting tree covered with Spanish Moss is located about half-way across “Road 8" toward the back of the Dinner Island Ranch Wildlife Management Area. Last year, I chose not to try to go down Road 8. Perhaps that was because I could see that portions of it were under water and I have street tires on my Jeep. Sometimes wisdom is the better part of valor. This year, the road is totally dry, but it was still not an easy trip. There are ruts left over from when the ground was muddy and deep folds, which are a part of the natural terrain. On the Dinner Island map, it is a “dotted line road.” The regular roads, which are gravel paths, are the solid line roads. Images two and three show portions of the “road” which we traveled. I would not advise trying Road 8 in less than a high-clearance, four wheel drive vehicle even in this very dry weather. MWM
