Kids, could I beg a favour? (Moon I hope this is OK)
Blackhorse replied to Other Means's topic in General Discussion Forum
Works fine for me IE7.0 -
I wonder how long they can carry on with that naming convention before we end up with titles the likes of Battling Bastard Heroes (nod to Wilhammer) or Aggression of Heroes or From Heroes to Zeros

SLIM, I feel your pain. In the meantime, have you tried Mass Effect? It's a brilliant game and may well hold you over for a while. Cheers, BH

BigDukeSix, It is most incredible and awesome that you are able to provide such interesting and insightful first-hand accounts. Many many thanks for that. I'm sure you have been in a bit of danger on an occasion or two. If I may ask, what brings you into the area of operations and into such close proximity with the two Armies? Stay safe and warmest regards, BH

Olympics; Phelps going for the Medal Record
Blackhorse replied to Mord's topic in General Discussion Forum
Two question for those who don't think Phelps is the greatest Olympian ever: 1. Who do you think is? 2. Why? -
I read that he passed away one or two years ago.

GJK, I like the graphics. They are functional. Good work on your part. If the gameplay is there, then the graphics don't matter a whole lot. BH

Here is the Japanese account taken from here: http://www.history.navy.mil/library/special/midway.htm Office of Naval Intelligence, United States Navy June 1947 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On the fifth anniversary of the Battle of Midway, the Office of Naval Intelligence publishes the official Japanese action report of this engagement, recently translated under the supervision of the Naval Analysis Division, United States Strategic Bombing Survey, and here available in English for the first time. Although this document is not perfectly complete (part IV for example is missing), it is believed that nothing of any importance will be discovered in the future to change the story in any of its essential details. The report was prepared in the first place under difficulties. It must be remembered that the war diaries of many of the ships engaged, their charts and other valuable papers were lost as a result of the ships having become "inoperational," in the Japanese euphemism. There is nothing to indicate that the Japanese were not perfectly frank in this report. It was intended only for the highest echelons in the Japanese Navy and Government, and was guarded very closely throughout the war. There have been no alterations or corrections, omissions or additions to this report, beyond the supplying of a few clarifying footnotes.

And by the way, New York State is NOT part of New England.

Per'aps lad, but Mark Twain weren't from the North were he? Salty's point three was that "Inside the Northern states, "Yankee" means an inhabitant of New England." i.e. That people in New York and New Jersey and Pennsylvania and Delaware referred to New Englanders as Yankees, but not themselves as such. That's just not accurate. Plenty of New Yorkers and New Jersians and Pennsylvanians refer to themselves as Yankees too. That's also sort of where the New York Yankee reference comes in to play. As for the reference to the great EB White...I believe that was meant in jest..which may have been the effect Salty was striving to achieve. dunno.

The first two sure.. the last three...methinks you've kissed el Blarney Stone a few too many times. I've never in my 44 years as a US citizen (Many spent growing up in New Jersey and New York) heard of those. I'm also pretty sure the New York Yankees and their fans would take issue with the "New England" (Boston Red Sox home turf) bit.

What are grits? Grits are these things the reb...er.. southerners created after the war to get all yankees to leave. If it weren't for the fact they also created barbecue for themselves, the plan just might have worked. (GRITS SUCK!!)

So what ever happened to Max? There's just the one blog, as far as I can tell... Where are the details of the trip, or was it cancelled as a result of public furor over concept?
