I've been hammering away in the Metallica forums for four-five months now. When I started, I was outnumbered four-to-one by liberal antiwar nuts. As of now, it's around 55-45 in my favor.

Using FR's search engine, Rush's stack of stuff, good google wordings and the great links folks have posted on this thread, I've been able to crush almost every argument they could throw at me.

I'm gaining considerable ground on them.
