  1. How could Germany keep a navy as strong as it was in WWI

    Problem here is two fold: 1. The United States would never agree to being put into a position where it would have to rely on an ally if it was even more islationist than IOTL. The USN was seen as necessary piece of isolationist policy, as it kept the rest of the world at arm's length. 2...
  2. Japanies Hv Bombers

    he problem with these designs is, like most of what Japan thought exercised, they lacked the production capacity. Unlike the United States, UK or USSR, Japan had a severe shortage of mass production capacity. They couldn't build defensive fighters, replacements for losses, both air & naval, and...
  3. I can't help myself...

    Race riots in SWEDEN?:confused: How? Who? (brunettes vs. blonds?) Somebody need to tell this guy not to put Magic Mushrooms on his pizza.
  4. Stalingrad question

    Von Palus just WORKED for an idiot (actually a crazed douchebag, but I digress). He was a decent commander, perhaps not the greatest German general of the war, but quite compentent. He was not the one who kept detatching mobile units of 6th Army while leaving them the same set of objectives. He...
  5. Israel vs France

    Hmmm... France vs. Israel I'd have to say the early line is Israel by 4 1/2 if the game is in Israel, France by 3 1/2 if it's in Europe. Neutral site 6/5 & pick 'em:p CalBear the Greek A post so nice I used it twice!
  6. Independent Mohawks

    That whole break away from the Republic thing has been done before. Didn't end well. Not to mention the fact that you would have to be crazy to try to form a real nation out of what ground the Mohawks could actually hold. Nothing that the Mohawk tribal leadership has done in the last 20...
  7. First the Falklands, then Belize

    Belize is too close to home for Uncle Sam to allow ANY agression, especially while the Cold War is still in full swing. Sounds like a quick regime change is due in Guatemala City. Or a fast deplyment out of Ft. Bragg. It may not have been right, and I'm just about sure it wasn't fair, but...
  8. How'd you like to see Hitler buy it ?

    Normally I would agree with you. The Nazi's however, did turn somewhere in the area of 8 - 9 million people into air pollution simply because they didn't like them. For my money that calls for a bit more than "your officers can keep their swords".
  9. How'd you like to see Hitler buy it ?

    Death by being kicked in the nuts.
  10. WI US Navy decided not to go with the F-18E/F Super Hornet

    Hmmm... They call it the F-35?
  11. Where were you when the Cylons attacked Caprica...

    I was waiting for Jimmy Carter, Sadat, & Begin to finish their handshake/hug photo op so I could watch the premiere of Battle- What? Oh, sorry. Never mind.
  12. What if Mary Ingalls never went blind?

    Since you ask... Since someone has already noted that the show would have not have any source materiel... The little sister, Laura Ingalis, moved to San Francisco, became the hottest name on the Barbary Coast, used her money to finance a series of saloons & early moving picture...
  13. What if Mary Ingalls never went blind?

    Thank you!:D
  14. What if Mary Ingalls never went blind?

    Since someone has already noted that the show would have not have any source materiel... The little sister moves to San Francisco, becomes the hottest ticket on the Barbary Coast, uses the money to finance a series of saloons & early moving picture establishments. She takes part of the money...
  15. Alternate birth for Lorelai Gilmore

    Hmmm.... Something creepy in Sin City. Shocking, simply shocking! :D :p :D :p
  16. What should I call my nation?

    Leejastan??
  17. In dies the fire...

    I believe in the Board thread addressed to Stirling he states that his stories always take place on a parallel Earth because "it's easier that way".
  18. In dies the fire...

    I thought they found Gates whole skeleton? I would have figured that the Eaters would have chopped it up.:p It does have a number of interesting clues, but some of them seem to be red herrings. I think that Stirling has more than just one surprise up his devious sleeve.:D
  19. Alternate birth for Lorelai Gilmore

    The ONLY reason to even pay attention to the PREVEIWS (e.g. Alexis Bledel) would not exist? Overall, not even the presence of the bluest eyes on TV would make me choose watching this show over getting my fingers beaten flat with a wooden mallet.
  20. Who would u be married to if you married your prom date?

    Funny, that describes my prom too.:D
