I download the allfiles.zip file then download every interesting or even somewhat interesting or might be needed files i see on the new files list, which i check .5 to 5 times a day.

Also TICALC.ORG----YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO LOOK AT THE FILES IN THE ARCHIVES ALPHABETICALY OR BY DATE SO I CAN SEE EVERYTHING I HAVENT GOTTEN IF I WAS AWAY!

ACTUALLY ORGINAZABLE BY DATE, SIZE, POPULARITY, AND ALPHABETICALY

This is not a joke


It is my sad duty to tell you that Laura Thompson was killed yesterday. She was setting off artillery shells when one didn't light. She bent over to see what was wrong and the shell ignited. This may sound like a joke, but I assure you it is not. Laura Thompson is dead! Just don't let what happened to her, happen to you. It wasn't pretty, seeing my girlfriends crumpled body in my arms, her head all but a little stub. She had so much promise, please be carefull with fireworks.

Uhh..the explosive at the bottom of commercial grade shells is not enough to knock someone's head off. At most, it would knock her out, but not kill her. Even the explosive that shoots the balls of chemicals out won't even do that much damage, unless she was holding it in her mouth.

Let's see...

I've seen people shot in the head with roman candles, and escape with a burn mark
I've seen people shot in the chest with artillery shells and survive with a burnt shirt.

I know fireworks CAN kill people and have, but sorry, artillery shells don't rip people's heads off.

I posted that last comment because I think it's wrong that one person can make all of you believe that Laura was a real person, and then because he doesn't want to use the name anymore, he makes most people here believe she died. That's kinda heartless, dude.

Like the time I told you[Paulo] that I was her boyfriend and you asked Amalfi if he was availible and he came back with, "Amalfi is, and always will be A MAN!" Yes, Laura touched many in her short existance, and I for one will dearly miss her.

Once and for all people

Try and find something else to do with your time.
IF he made it up to get attention then he surely got it.
IF it's true no one is being very supportive of the guy. No one here seems capable of empathy anymore, anywhere. Existentialism (or however its spelled) gains more and more credibility to me almost daily.

I'd strongly recommend that, if you believe him, support him. If you don't, shut up and stop debating him.

I guess now would probably be the time Lionheart steps up and says it's all a hoax, making a fool of me.
It would be better than the alternative....

I live in Socorro, New Mexico, where both Alex, and "Laura" live. In the most current edition of the newspaper, there is NO mention of and artillery shell-related deaths in it.
I hope that is all the proof you need.

Not really knowing what's going on, I'm not too sure about this, but to me you [Akira of HLC] sound a little obsessed to me. As if you've been trying to prove that Laura Thompson and Alexanderthelionhearted are the same people. So what if they are?

Like Akadajet said, it sound a little funny, the whole story, it's just fishy.

Alexanderthelionhearted sounded a little insinsere. If my girlfriend just died, I'd sound a whole lot sadder, and I wouldn't share my pain, my open wound to people in a place like this who can't distinguish the late "Laura" from a line of calculator.

Maybe they are the same people, maybe their not, who cares? "Laura" just kicked off, and Alexanderthelionhearted just said his goodbyes, I hope you guys feel real good yourselves right now.
