Three of four safety mechanisms designed to prevent unintended detonation failed to operate properly in the Faro bomb. That is a pretty amazing story. The inauguration of John F. Kennedy as the 35th President of the United States was held on January 20, 1961 . I wonder how close this incident was to the inauguration? |

Much cheaper than war. The thing is, make sure he never finds out it wasn't real. It of course would have to be tailored differently to suit the subject, but you want to find something that will shake his belief system. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

| Nareed Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 346 Posts: 12545 | It's too bad George Orwell didn't title his infamous novel "2013." Because this would be the year when Apple's "1984" commercial would really apply. On a completely unrelated note, I wonder if there is a Room 101 in the MS campus in Redmond... I mean after all: Tablets are PCs Choice is Comformity Write-offs are Profit And also, Google stealing data bad, Micorosft stealing data good! Which just goes to show you can adapt any of Orwell's dystopian works if you're clever enough and can gloss over details. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |
