Why Tarantula Run?
Tarantula Run FAQsWhy are we calling it the Tarantula Run? October is the time of year when the tarantulas come out, and the preserved 20,000 acres at Los Vaqueros makes a great habitat for tarantulas.

Is DCOM dead?
Andy Mc's .NET Framework FAQPretty much, for .NET developers. The .NET Framework has a new remoting model which is not based on DCOM. DCOM was pretty much dead anyway, once firewalls became widespread and Microsoft got SOAP fever. Of course DCOM will still be used in interop scenarios. See similar questions...
Is COM+ dead?
Andy Mc's .NET Framework FAQNot immediately. The approach for .NET 1.0 was to provide access to the existing COM+ services (through an interop layer) rather than replace the services with native .NET ones. Various tools and attributes were provided to make this as painless as possible. Over time it is expected that interop will become more seamless - this may mean that some services become a core part of the CLR, and/or it may mean that some services will be rewritten as managed code which runs on top of the CLR.

and also ~ Where do Dead Pets go?
Aunt Julie Pet Communicator - FAQsYou'll find that both are covered in this same write-up. It's a bit long but should prove informative. discussed elsewhere on this site, animals are quite telepathic - they do this naturally. The "barks" and "meows" are what their bodies' sounds are literally physically capable of and are unto themselves one way an animal communicates. They utilize sound waves just as we do, but a dog can't "speak" as we do. Nor can a dolphin roar like a lion. See similar questions...
Can I handle my tarantula?
Frequently Asked QuestionsWhile it is possible to handle a tarantula, I highly advise against it. Tarantulas (even arboreal species) are extremely fragile creatures and a fall of several inches could injure or even kill it. If you do choose to handle, a good idea is to always be directly over a bed, carpet, or other soft surface that can soften a fall. It is also worth noting that handling NW species may lead to itchy hands and arms from the urticating hairs. See similar questions...

Q:   My tarantula has an eggsac. What do I do?
Scotts Tarantulasremove it from her and incubate the eggsac yourself by using a "mechanical mom" (see "The Tarantula Keeper Guide" p216). Species of some female tarantulas are good moms and take good care of the eggsacs, others are notorious for eating the eggsac at the slightest adverse condition including being disturbed. I don't recommend removing the eggsac unless the mother has abandoned it and it's starting to stink. See similar questions...

Are there any other limitations to being dead?
Yes! I'm glad you asked. The Ministry is in the process of making new laws regarding the Returnees (future characters) and the Living Dead. As the laws are passed you will be able to find them in the mod journal. Besides the laws that are in place, the Living Dead may contract "The Last Breath" which is a disease that effects your respiratory system; it is very much like acute bronchitis but has no cure as of now. The ministry is working on one and it should be available soon. See similar questions...
