    First off, about the shadows on the moon, can you say "CLOUDS". Heck, even the retards in Siberia know clouds reflect light. There is no way you would see the stars with the reflection from both clouds and the lunar craft and, of course, the moon...
    Huh, the moon has CLOUDS?
    Blah, it's something new to me, Im starting to think Im not so good as astronomy - better get some books ASAP!

      Girlfight_club sends word that she has pronounced Vendetta against Gonzo Historians

      Which had "no-man's lands".


      I read all kinds of history, from many many perspectives. I've even studied the Soviet education system, a little.


      The US never rescued Latvia from Stalin, that's true, though I believe they always recognized its independence from the Soviets. ...The continental US has been unscarred by war since the 1800s. Another lucky break for them.

      But when mobilization reaches the point where heavy industry is staffed mainly by the women, there's an effort on.


      And what makes you think I could vote for Bush? My flag is the UN...

        Historically WWI was the first war to use front lines at most battle situations. If there ever where any no-mans it was either when victory was already achieved or when some great offensive was going on.

        IIRC WWI had no great offensives like Fall Gelb (IIRC this was they called capture of France) or something - there was quite slow movement of the front line (at least on the West front).

        The US never rescued Latvia from Stalin, that's true, though I believe they always recognized its independence from the Soviets. ...The continental US has been unscarred by war since the 1800s. Another lucky break for them.
        Yes it might be lucky, as you think, but because of this many US people just dont understand European viewpoint of all this.
        Latvia is a small country and it's historians balance between accusing West and East (it's the quest for our reputation and survival), that's why the sources of Latvian history tend to be as neutral as they can.

        Although some idiot presented a book to Putin which contained some pro-Nazi themes..

        But when mobilization reaches the point where heavy industry is staffed mainly by the women, there's an effort on.
        Are you talking about WW2?
        Then, yes, it's an effort. But do you recall the same about WWI?

        And what makes you think I could vote for Bush? My flag is the UN...
        I didnt pretend you voted for Bush, but if someone (from US) can write something so ahistorical and nonsense as Commy, I dont wonder why US people vote for Bush..

            Good suggestion!

            So let's return to the topic.

                  Using that ol' hunter-seeker algorithm, eh? Ah, what the heck, let's all pick on a common enemy, the aliens.

                  We all hate the aliens, right?

                      I do not hate alien just because there are so many movies where they attack us.
                      If there where aliens who wanted to attack us somewhere around Earth, we would all be dead or slaves by now.

                      So the only 2 choices left are:
                      1.There are no aliens near us.
                      2.There are, but they're peaceful

                      So it's no reason just to hate them because you think they are.
                      Did they do something wrong to you?

                            Don't apologize, and it is something we could vote about.

                            For once, it's a cristal clear analysis, BinTravkin...
