Would more U.S. troops help stop Iraq violence?
metadigital replied to Eddo36's topic in Way Off-Topic
Leaving aside your atrocious grammar which impedes any cogent analysis of your writing, I will point out that this is absolute horsefeathers. They are still looking for the mass graves in Iraq. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And I bet they're still looking for WMD's while they're at it, too right? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I see you are keeping up with current affairs. The commission searched and reported that there were none to be found. But you miss my point, and make light of the deaths of all those poor innocent people who suffered and died horribly under Saddam, to make your na -
I don't see the point in a transmitter of this sort. Unless it was a booster that amplified, say, the EMR frequency signature sequence that a keypress makes, for example ... "

What's so great about The Catcher In The Rye?

Hmmm, level 23, is that? (I know it says "level one", but it ain't the first level of the proper game.)

vol never did nothing useful with old nwn toolset, so why he is interested in new nwn toolset? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Actually, I beta-tested his module and it was pretty good.

Bad stuff teaches us lessons. I bored with vomiting in flower beds and I haven't even reached middle age (quite in the back), let alone eternity.

Be against the war if you want; be anti-Bush, if you like; blame Bush for taking the Coalition into Iraq on false pretenses, even; but DON'T pretend that Saddam Hussein was a "normal" leader. The death and destruction is incalculable. And that's not counting the men, women and children who have suffered without normal food and living conditions (Iraq was a reasonably affluent country when Saddam took control). -

How about we allow Iraqi troops to come to USA and patrol our streets so we would know how it's like to be occupied and get our doors kicked in every now and then, since we got American citizens taking arms via the God-given right of the 2nd Amendment to defend our country, having the santity of our private homes taken away. Since USA got tons of WMD's piled up in bases all over the country, isn't USA guilty in that sense that is the reason Iraq was invaded? Or overthrowing and hanging a dictator (Bush) and get one hundred thousand American citizens killed, as Iraq suffered with their own people? Our water sources, agriculture, military and industries destroyed, our own country being pushed back years. And have 180,000 Muslims patrol our streets (plus 30,000) more to come. With those 30,000 troops coming, we sure won't fight back as insurgents. Kinda how they would feel, no? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> See, EdD'Oh, this is where that apophthegm "It is better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you are stupid, then to open it and confirm beyond all doubt that you are." All three of them? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> For a start, yes. There are a lot more that want membership, they just have to jump through all the hoops that "Old Europe" insist on, so that the newer members don't screw the Union up (before they do). And ALL of them (barring that one with the dictator who just died, but not before he named the days of the week after himself and his mother) are in better condition than under the soviet system. -
Actually, that's all I'd want: near-perfect retention would make life so easy. (The brain doesn't need more oxygen.) Enhanced senses would be nice but not essential. Eternal life is a curse. Long life would be okay. PS Is this actually a decent topic from EdD'Oh? )

More US troops in Iraq = more people to piss off Iraqis and make them into insurgents? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> ... Because that is the one-to-one ratio and simple equation of the process. -

The biggest hurdle would be the connector ... after all, the motherboard is finely balanced to allow the various component timings to match.

This is even worse than your global foreign policy pronouncements (if that is even possible). I surprised you aren't advocating selling arms to both sides, and charging tickets for spectators. -

That's crazy talk. Even ignoring the safety of the citizens of the USA from global thermonuclear strike, look at all the former-USSR countries (a lot of which have now joined or are about to join the EU) for one example; I would say their populations are pretty pleased with the outcome. Having two immense alliances of countries facing each other down is not a safe state, even if it is (temporarily) stable. -
Do you like WW2 grand strategy naval wargames?
metadigital replied to Llyranor's topic in Computer and Console
Maybe you need to brag a bit about how easy you're finding the game, so that they rise to the bait and play you ... though that might backfire (they might gang-up on you to cheat). -

And I never said otherwise. If you question that it's not a good thing, then that means there is some of you that feels that it was a bad thing. Because there's right and wrong. Right? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> -

It's the least I can do, considering how many times you email the Unix User Manual to those people who need a reminder of reality, chapter and verse. That's a metaphor, based on a location joke, meaning bring all the facts to an argument. -

It's amazing you are actually able to type such drivel, considering you are living in a country whose safety was guaranteed by the US Cold War victory. -

They're all too busy congratulating themselves on their own similarities (i.e. the heads are firmly up their own behinds) to argue responsibly. I think you showed excellent restraint to try to win-over a PBEM game; I think the only chance you've got, though, is if you piss someone off enough that they want to beat you. " -
Exactly, you are displaying board-game bigotry by not appreciating good cheating techniques that existed way before the computer was a games machine!
