More than once someone has pointed out, myself included, some infuriating bit of news showing how little people remember or appreciate what was done by those to make the world of today, which could certainly far more problem-plagued and dark than even the troubles we face today.

Please don't do that... People at work already think I am a little strange...I don't need to be laughing out loud for no apparent reason to boot. DT

Very, very tasty!!! When is this due out? DT

Just a follow up to this thread. Having played it for what it most likely the last time last night, I cannot recommend Call of Duty World at War, at least for multi-player, AT ALL. I tried to like this game, I really did, and there are good things to recommend it, but one major thing kills it for Multi-player, and I primarily buy these games for MP. Bottom line, the spawning in the game is #%$^& ridiculous, for two reasons. One, you often spawn in the open, and within range of the enemy, sometimes RIGHT in front of him. Two, spawning is too random, meaning areas you just cleared might have enemy pop in right after.

Thanks for the insights, M8s.

Reminds me of a Science Fiction Novel by Harry Turtledove, when an alien race invades Earth in 1942, in the middle of Second World War. Apart from Interstellar travel, their technology is not much better than ours in 2000, but still far advanced to mid 20th century.

Truly impressive!, especially with the timing. DT

Angus,

That is a pretty damn dead on impression of Scott!

Greyknight,

Sweet Pictures!

My fear is that one of the fanatics is going to do something that even the most pacifist crowd can't ignore, maybe a nuke of their own, and quite a few people will get nuked in retaliation.

Exceptional; the kind of reporting which is not done by regular "news" services, but damn well should be. Yon relies on donations to do his work, so I sent him $50.

"Speaking of DT, either he hasn't read this yet, or he's sworn off all political discussion," Not bloody likely... Andy,

Oh, you are a dog alright! ~S!~ DT

BLUE THUNDER "This thing's nose-heavier than the Ayatollah!" X-49A "This thing's ass-heavier than Kim Kardashian!"

I don't think we can ascribe a moral decline just "over there".

Actually, if I *had* to choose between your technique and the death spin, I'll take yours. There is nothing worse than that 'spinning tea-cup' spiral of doom in a P-39, particulary since at height it takes for damn ever.

GOD that looks pretty!

Sorry, I don't agree with this at all.

"Innuendo and broad generalizations, as well as bringing up past events that have little bearing upon the topic at hand tend to place the open discussion under a dark cloud." I agree, which is why I normally felt uncomfortable, or maybe I should say formally uncomfortable, discussing political things on the boards, other than mocking France (Sorry to any Frenchmen among us I've forgotten about).

"It really is an American thing, looking at the posts of our members, something that us tight spandex shorts wearing 'Brünos' over here in Europe, will never get." What is "an American thing"? I think we've seen quite a variance of opinion on this issue from the Yanks here, and unless I am mistaken, some of the Canucks agree with some of the Yanks about some things, and I think the Brits have some difference of opinion. Let's not put each other into little boxes. DT
