I would've liked to have held the programming competition, but I think it will have to wait until fall.  The framework is getting pretty close to being finished and polished up, but the game hasn't even been coded into it yet.  I will have all summer to get this done, and I'll make it a bit of a priority.

I was thinking maybe have the game night we were thinking about. Talking to Dr. Kline (sp?) to see if he would be interested. It would be pretty easy to setup I would think for all we would need a room for us all. If I get a better idea You all will be the first to know.

Einstein would be fine with the statement that â€Ã...“everyone reaches [the future] at the rate of 60 minutes an hour, whatever he does, whoever he is."  A minute is always a 60th of an hour regardless of relativistic concerns.  If your frame of reference is 99.9% of the speed of light then everyone else may appear to have a lot of hours for every one hour you get but their hours have 60 minutes in them just as yours do.  

In fact, the quote seems to hold up pretty well if face of relativity.  You should still make every minute of your life count regardless of other considerations (such as how many Earth rotations your life spans).
