Part of President Obama's [nefarious plan to bring down the republic] committment to open government and accountability.

"Under orders from President Obama, NASA has declassified the details about the deception operation it undertook with the United States Air Force from 1968 through 1973. The purpose of the operation was to convince the then-Soviet Union that American rocket technology far surpassed the Soviet...

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for saying that. You know, you can get the complete works of Piper from Amazon for about $5 on Kindle. I can't think of a better deal anywhere.

I enjoyed his works for the most part. Like someone said, popcorn for the brain. What annoyed me the most was when he was inconsistant. In book one, the uptimers are talking about how to retool the US industry to the AK-47, yet in book three they're using M4 derivatives. Bwhaa? The...

I thought the ethical dilemmas were a bit more 'in your face' in Enterprise. When they made a clone of the engineer, only to kill him and harvest him for organs or when they turned pirate and stole a warp drive, marooning a peaceful, alien explorer ship were two of the more interesting...

Of all the Enterprises, the one from Enterprise was my personal favorite. It looked far more like a spaceship...sorry, STARship than the TOS. I could actually relate better to that ship. Besides, it only carried 81 crewmembers, plus one beagle. There's been several episodes that were...

I've been watching the show on DVD lately. I must say, I'm more inclined to like it than I was when it was on television. The season 3 ender/ season 4 beginning episode were, I think, very interesting. The whole 'temporal war' held lots of possibilities and, if you followed the plot closely...

Actually, no. At the time, the HoR was dominated by Republicans and Bush would have won. Honestly, there really was no way Gore could have pulled a rabbit out of the hat.

Well, that didn't take long. Well done Red, well done. *polite golf clap*

Guns of the South, Presence of Mine Enemies, any of his short stories. Personally, I liked the Race series, but it did kind of drag. I absolutely loved the American Empire series, also known as TL 191. If you can get through the repetative characterizations of the people, the plot is rather...

Ultima Online. The different shards started off with the same resources and infrastructure, but player developed content lead each in its own way. Different shards saw the rise of different empires and kingdoms. There were the various Orc hordes, the player created cities, the grand...

Has anyone heard of this or read it? Just picked it up for my Kindle. Am laughing my ass off right now. Highly recommend. I'd tell you how the story goes, but the title pretty much gives the plot away. Picture a high society ball, women in gowns, men in...whateverthehelltheyworebackthen...

Well, Canada gets invaded for the third time. Might just be this time it sticks. Of course, the Caribbean becomes a British lake in return. American shipping effectively ends. British economic embargo of the Atlantic. I'd say toss up. USA might keep Canada or parts there of, but if the USA...

What is a "Progressive"? I really hate that term, btw. It prejudges the argument.

I, for one, welcome our new Turkish Overlords...
