I know the feeling, every time I hear the news from western Europe it makes me want to scream.

If a scientist discovered the cure for cancer, we would expect the discovery to be shared with the world.

Call me cynical, there's way to much money to be made in research now a days, the discovery would be buried.

The Germans were worried about Patton, they didn't worry about Montgomery.

I got awakened a few times by the storm alarm. We had a little bit of hail in some areas. They had softball sized hail in Abilene Texas.

BTW, folks today is Norton Update Day.

How's it going, Snippy?

I agree, I personally think the cure is there in herbs and natural products, Could you imagine if we stopped the chemo, radiation, prescription drugs, etc, etc....

It would devistate the medical corridor and prescription drug industry.

Alexander declared, "they lack the will to fight." Montgomery believed "they have no confidence in their Generals."

The British have always thought too much of themselves and Americans always show them their place, they just don't learn. The Brits are so frigin' arrogant.

We were there to help, to sacrifice our own for them and there was Montgomery and Alexander whining, afraid we'd show them up. We did. We saved the entire continent despite them.
