#2 Juche works so long as the brain has deteriorated sufficiently. Hugo's well along the road to hell I'd say.

#3 Hugo needs to depart.

Aren't we launching another Mars lander probe this month?

I sure NASA can find space.

We do what we can, but we have to do something. Our site is not a hobby, but a mission.

#9 A little exercise... Create a Threat Board...

1) First, make a list of Terrorist Asshats running "states". Those who want to do bad shit.

2) Second, a list of Whores running "states" - that have "bad things, very bad things" to offer the first list, if the price is right.

NOTE: a "state" can be on BOTH lists.

3) Build a matrix with the first list across the top, second list down the left.

4) Put a weighted value in each box:

3 = either entity has unlimited cash and driven by ideology alone

2 = seller has bad stuff & buyer has cash

1 = seller has bad stuff & buyer has trade goods or tech

0 = either seller has nothing to offer or buyer is busted flat; poor chemistry

5) Add 'em up across the bottom and down the right.

There's you target list, whether the actions are military, economic, political, diplomatic, etc - already prioritized from highest to lowest...

Just for fun, ya see.
