  • Fortune Cookie Database, Mar 2005 This is my fortune cookie database. It is 13.9 mbytes compressed and 43.4 mbytes uncompressed. You will need bunzip2 to decode it. You will want to do 'save link as' to get it. Updated May 2006
  • Heaven, A 'demo' program, the most impressive 64k I have seen. Needs a Microsoft Windows OS. Not a virus. (If you are using Mozilla/Firefox/Netscape don't click on it and try to save it. Instead, right click and choose 'Save Link Target As'. If you use another browser and have trouble running it, try to save it as a binary file however your browser does that.)Sep-18-2001
  • Project Genesis, Another 'demo' program, more cpu intensive than Heaven. Needs a Microsoft Windows OS. Not a virus. Jun-25-2004
  • All Your Base, A flash program, about aliens taking over the world.
