We should all agree with Thumpalumpacus. Don't practice collective guilt or judge people by their ethnic background. Just Thumpalumpacus.

I was being sarcastic, but if we're going to draw a conclusion from, and hopefully to, this sidebar, I'd prefer it be formulated Don't practice collective guilt, or judge people solely by their ethnic background. Just me.

The wisdom of Sgt Buster Kilrain from the movie "Gettysburg" springs to mind, "Any man who judges by the group is a pea-wit. You take men ... one at a time."

Well that's an interesting view on history…

Yep - and I bet that woman has never been to Europe, let alone walked the streets of Herculaneum, seen the buildings in Switzerland and France or even visited Roman sites in England.

The Roman Empire was very real...

I though the "Myth of Rome" was invented in the Middle Ages by the Church, about the same time they wrote the Bible.

Huh?

I actually enjoy these alternate histories.

Come on now. The earth is only 6,000 years old. The pyramids were giant grain silos and man rode around on Velociraptors.

Aren't they going to publish a book named "Around The Square In 80 Days"?

Well, I'm sorry, but I should disappoint you!!!

It can't be named "A'round' The Square In 80 Days" ...

Well, has anyone searched the opposite direction!!!

That's a pentagon, I believe!

 

[NVSMITH]

Nope, you can't use Latin, it was made up by the fascist Ukranians when they invented the myth of Rome. It doesn't actually exist.

Remember?

-Does that mean we should use Klingon instead?

-I no longer have the cartoon but the caption was to the effect that if the earth really was flat cats would have knocked everything off by now.

I'd say that Aurebesh would be better.
