Re: 13-Jan-18 World View -- US requests Pakistan's permission to ship Afghan supplies through Gwadar seaport
All 4 it. Beter than being lik the french and giving a shit about their language. America is all about the common man. Fuck your rules I'll take innovation any day of teh week. <chuckle!> :) A set of rules IS what a language consists of. Should we be slavish to language rules? We shouldn't be slavi...

Re: Generation lengths
If you want to do research on fifth turnings, the main issue is what I identified after the 7/7/2005 London Subway bombings: That suicide bombers almost always seem to come from countries in a fifth turning, not a fourth turning. The problem is to identify what's different between a fourth and fift...

Re: Financial topics
The more capitalism creates wealth, the more it sows the seeds of its own destruction. - Karl Marx And that's the way it's supposed to be, because "capitalism" is a "natural" (larger-than-human) thing. Capitalism is simply a very bad description of the process that is "ecology". It's ultimate "purp...

Is it possible for a native speaker of a language to make a grammatical error in that language? Yes. Eye due it awl the tyme. ..and I'm of the opinion that "nother" should be standardized, as it means; the opposite of "another" when used after "a whole" (NOT a-hole!) in the colloquial sub-phrase "a...

Yes, but doesn't the "X" give me a connection to Malcolm X? Yes. Yes it does. ..also, Pope Leo X, Pope John X (double relation there!), all the X Boxes, and Mac OSX. I'm SURE we can find some more relatives... I just found out yesterday, via FamilySearch.org, that I'm related to Charles Martel, Jul...

The "leftist" fascist tribe(s) would commit suicide, due to ineffectual-ness and in-fighting. How do you create this civil war: Elect an actual fascist (Hillary, Obama, Sanders -ish), instead ...
