Hmmm worst case scenario would probably something like this: A large EMP event goes off, and all unshield electronics short out. Most critical military gear and kits would continue on doing what they do, although air travel would probably be limited to a priority usage. In the industrial...

Canada is listening to the talks and are part of the negoiations, but isn't gung-ho for the treaty unless treaty wording is changed, so that the ACTA can not force US law on Canadian law. Basically sovereignty issues, so negioations have so far have steered the treaty so it can not force...

Hmmm, while this is pretty dishearting news for the United States of America, I'd like to help clarify a number of things for Canadian Escapists. While the ACTA and its advocates would like to advertise that the ACTA is a unified motion, it is not. Canada has respectfully agreed since 2007 to...

Actual FDR did want to join in the fight, primary sources and public events support FDR's intentions enough that it is not speculation. What held the United States out of the fight for so long were the isolationist proportion of Congress and powerful interest group supporters like Henry Ford...

As a lesson learned then indeed it was a lesson learned. As for those of you that praise Hitler on Germany's 1930- 36 period economy. The conditions were temporary at best, the NSDAP just stopped paying repearations, seized jewish assets, nullified interest/repayments on loans against jewish...

Hmmm just out of curiousity, what do you mean by the "TRUE history about the Third Reich?" Do you mean a revisionist history? Or a university backed monographic perspective? My undergraduate degree was focused on the Cold War, but that also means I had to have a pretty sound background on the...

Who in their right mind? That would be someone who truly believed in "Lebensraum" at the expense of the Soviets and a number of other factors which demanded it. Soviet living space was always the prize for NSDAP Germany's expansion. In the early phases of the war, Hitler and his crones thought...

Urgh... Hitler was not a good leader, I will give that Hitler was charismatic and he found himself in an environment that was ripe for right-wing nationism, but the principle components that allowed Hitler to be in the center spot light of NSDAP power and influence was circumstance...

Here's the thing, you can like and see Piranha 3D or Scott Pilgrim vs. the World without hating other. These movies aren't mutually exculsive choices. As for what to see first, that just depends on your mood. Piranha 3D is a movie for people that don't take themselves too seriously. I kind of...

For me it's the Panduranga ruins of South East Asia, also noted to be the last hold out of the Cham Empire of the 1st Century.

Many years ago, one of my sisters made a bonehead move and decide to clean out her fridge of old freezer burnt foods and foodstuff that had gone bad without some forethought in timing and biology. The sister in question had just moved out of my parents place and had just moved in with me to go...

Actually your logic is a bit muddy here. First off, PC data pirating is often painted by as the roots for all that's evil in the gaming industry, while it is a factor it is not as big a factor as it is painted to be. It's the big picture that needs to seen here,and the big picture here is...

It was a long time ago, but I think the first was the original "Return of the Jedi: Death Star Battle" (1983) with vector graphics and all the glory that came along with it. However what entrenched me within the gamer's culture was the simple but exotic lure of 1984's "Kung-Fu Master," it...

For some of us old PC grognards, some of the fun from the old Baldur's Gate series was in creating a character. Honestly the system is not that hard, no more involving than what you want to make of it. To an old AD&D veteran the system is like a well worn pair of sneakers and may bring back...
