    Is barium supposed to eat itself, or is it a bug?

    Also, I found a random, and since unrecreateble crash where is turn on the fancy graphics.

    Apart from that, I'm very impressed (Wish I could do that)

    some elements i thought might be useful:

    Naqahdah - A superheavy metal. Its most basic use is as a weapon, naqahdah greatly amplifies energy, making it extremely potent if paired with explosives.

     and

    Naqahdriah - A highly unstable variant isotope of naqahdah with considerably greater energy-production capacity — and correspondingly greater explosive potential. Naqahdriah emits radiation that can cause death, or in non-lethal doses brain damage, resulting in delusions or schizophrenia The energy released by naqahdriah can catalyze nearby naqahdah into more naqahdriah in a self-sustaining reaction.

    Dern it! 
    I'm not finding the lin32 version.. 
    And I'm too much of a linux noob to get how to make from source. :(
    Is the lin32 version available? Gimme a link, PLEASE.

    Thanks, mate.
    Umm.. I d-loaded the linux version over on the first page.. No run, no good, no how.. After reading through, I just assumed it was the 64 version. If it ain't, maybe I got other issues??

    Edit:
    Hmm..
    I downloaded it again. I'm on dialup here and even one meg can be a grueling d-load! I had to try a separate  download manager as Chrome crapped out when downloading.. 

    Anyhow, I finally got the thing and when I when I try to run it, it fails and creates a new file with the title: ?:@@??@8 (invalid encoding)
    The file appears empty.

    I have a very annoying issue.  I cannot save stamps reliably at all.  Sometimes, the program crashes immediately when trying to save, and sometimes it will save once or twice before crashing.  Its specifically on trying to save stamps.  Does anyone know of a fix for this?  I do not have this issue in any other version of TPT.
