I don't have pills as well. I'm totally clean! I'm fond of candies. I bought recently a 6-pack of XL Energy Dextrose candies. Those candies contain Vitamin C. I currently have the orange flavour, but I prefer Lemon. I'm also fond of winegums and candies with a cola taste.

Loz wrote: If the Pendragon picture is going to be truely faithful then The Martians have to be slightly backward when it comes to their technolagy at the same time as being very advanced. In the book they haven't even invented the wheel as there is no evidence of it in any of their machinary. Also they only learn how to fly whilst on Earth. They are shot to Earth in cylanders which crash into the ground and don't arrive in flying saucers or the like. They don't even wear space suits, and expose themselves to unfriendly alien bacteria. This is all because Wells can only invisage so much being a man of his time and this is one of the great things about the book. I hope that Hines is keeping all this in mind. <br />In some areas we have already surpassed the martian technolagy, with our modern airplanes. <br />This is why the Parramount picture is only War of the Worlds in name.<br />The Heatray is a box with a parabold ossalating mirror, held by one of the tenticals. The Martians are clearly visable in the hoods of the fighting machines, driving them, and unprotected from the elements and artillary. Lets face it thats a little daft on their part. But its what I want to see. A totaly faithful rendition of the Martian Technolagy. even their mighty gun which fires the cylanders to suburbs of London breaks and they stop coming. Even after all their scrutiny before the invasion they still lose three of their kind two cannon and the Thunderchild and have to start using the black smoke from a safe distance.<br />So come on Pendragon, make sure your Martians are a little backward, it's part of the charm. Does anybody agree?
Judging by the spoof they seem to have kept to some of what you say. Where as Speilbergs film has evolved the technology of the invaders from Mars.
Humans are our food.
