Hi All,

I've noticed that the forum's been quite, but I recently bought FtM and when I tried to access the calculation spreadsheet, I got an error message saying it was corrupted.

Any help?

Cheers and Happy New Year!

Perhaps slightly irrelevant, but there was a TV show on the BBC years ago called Tripods.  Basically dealt with the Earth under Martian Law:

"The epic story of an invaded earth was shown in 1984 and 1985.

It centred on a young man called Will who was struggling against the Tripods - giant three-legged machines that stalked the land, keeping humanity enslaved.


The Tripods was based on John Christopher's trilogy of books. Well, most of it was. The BBC did two series, and then cancelled the third - so we saw Will and his friends escape from England, fall in love, harvest grapes, join the resistance, invade the city of the Tripods, escape and then ... well, we never really found out what happened next."

Anyone read these?  May give another perspective on target cities, how the planet fell?
