Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Why Do People Hate America?
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

What do you think of it? I read it a while ago and thought it gave a good account of the Arab/Jewish conflict.

I like it a lot... but so I do with most books of these two....
very well-documented, and makes you think about what the media tries to make you believe....

it seems their new one about New York is a new masterpiece, but I haven't read it yet....

Interesting. I found it to be remarkably unbiased, which given the subject matter is quite an achievement.

I might have to look into the NY one.

I wouldn't say that either...it's a bit biased, but indeed less than most writings on the subject :)

Hey, cool. Just finished Margareta myself. Very odd. Fun, though.

Two weeks and I'm going to Moscow. Watching closely for sunflower oil and trams, of course.

Otherwise, this week I have mainly been reading the Evening Echo. And boy, are we a poor newspaper.
