A special message from the Department of Troll Control, come and get it!

Fellow Americans, there comes a time every mans life when we must give up ourselves before we are worthy to recieve. There comes a time in this war on terror when in order to protect liberty, we have to give it up in the mean time for safty. That's right folks. Today, Americans have forsaken the creator for the creation and have decided that they would value our "civil liberties" than protecting western civilization and rich white people from the tender mercies of radical Islamic terrorists. Selfish liberals insist and whine that Bush has no right to spy on Americans and ban certain undesirables from using our airlines. They demand the right to criticize and blaspheeme the name of our supreme commander and cheef George W Bush while forcing multiculturalism down our throats and praising Bill Clinton. We all know however that it's totally Clintons fult for everything bad in america. Now we are at war and we must make a decision. support the safty of America and defeat terrorists, or support civil liberties and give victory to the enemy. Its all because of Bill Clinton and civil liberties that we are in this war so it is only fair that we give it up. no one said life was supposed to be fair you liberal crybabys. Dont give me that rubbish about equality and diversity. WE ARE AT WAR! If your not for Bush and against civil liberties your a terrorist! Your probably even a Communist and should be detained. Therefore fellow Americans we must throw all of our trust and resources behind George W Bush and behind this war with no ifs ands or buts. Be sure to report any and all detractors and freedom supporters to your local military and never question. Bush knows what hes doing and we will win this war once and for all. Thank you and May God bless America.

By the way I found you on Mike Reed's list of flame warriors.

Eagle Scout is a positive, constructive Warrior who endeavors to submit original articles which contain useful content and relevant information with supporting citations and links, thus initiating meaningful discussion threads. Eagle Scout regards the internet as an uplifting, egalitarian, worldwide arena for the exchange of ideas among intelligent, thinking individuals. He does not openly attack, but will (ever tactfully) chastise disruptive comments, gratuitous insults and cretinous insipidity. He is always kind and helpful to Newbie, and will shrug off even the most egregious insults.

Yep that is you to the T.

But there's the mad scientist flipside, don't forget.
Always willing to perform hideous experiments on the klewless noobs that fall into the category of 'troll'.

The bushy eyebrows and the crooked grin are disconcerting.

That's very flattering, but I wear glasses.

No, really, thanks a lot. It's often tempting, when someone gets a little hostile, to flare up right back at them. I don't think that really helps.

Instead, I try to slip on their shoes for a bit, see if there's any common ground, or whether we can reach an accommodation. Most times it's just best to agree to disagree.

One of my earliest taglines was, "I wouldn't be judgmental, if people weren't so Stupid!" It still holds true.

As to my flipside, Darks, I have that fairly well documented, but not very many people have bought my book.

"Give me a synopsis, what's this thread about now?"

The most momentous event of recent date is the birth of Tax-Chick's baby, Daniel Edmond. We've been following Mom and Baby for some time now.

As far as the thread goes, a few months ago, we sent an expedition to the Moon, to test our Gas-Cooled Nuclear Reactor/Rocket Engines. We left some robots and a Science Module.

Then on December 27^th, we blasted off from our ocean site near Eniwetok Atoll, circled Earth a few times and then went alarmingly close to the Moon on a flyby. After gaining a bit of momentum from that maneuver, we turned and went past the Moon again, to correct our angle of trajectory toward Mars.

We should arrive at the Martian orbit in late April. Until then we're just rotating our three habitat masses around the central Thrust Ring, and going through our daily activities as if we were still on Earth, except at only .34 gravities.

You can catch these links on my about page. I've also posted links to the Original Undead Thread, the Bride of the Undead Thread, and all their Undead Spawn.

Also on my about page is a description of a visit to the Flying Castle which is excerpted from a future book. It is listed as "Chapter Seventeen," and it gives a first-person description of seeing the "Flying Castle" in space!

We talked about cheese waaaay early, when we were deciding what we needed to take into space with us.

So we set up a whole ecology, and took darn near everything with us. We have farm animals, fish, grainfields, orchards, hydroponics bays, manufacturing facilities, housing, entertainment, weather, ... I'm pretty sure I forgot Boysenberries, though.
