As for todays technology, we are still at the birth stage for what will be humans giant leap of technology, we are no where near the pre-matrix world of robots doing everything for us. ![]() |

Understand that corporations, today, are planning all of their operations with the simplicity of computer technology, and while they are, in the current age, successful, I come to believe that the USSR could have been in the forefront of this gradual inter-societal evolution had it possessed the necessary tools of today. Well, Russia and China gave it a shot, but it didn't work, it just taught us that we're not ready for it yet. Unfortunately, it got America all riled up, ended up attacking Vietnam for no good reason and spawned a generation of anti-communist fools. (Anti-communist fools, don't take this as me being anti-american, take this as me saying you are too narrow minded. ![]() |

I don't know if anyone's mentioned this before.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/7553144.stm Originally posted by BBC Speaking in Beijing, US President Bush told NBC TV that he had spoken frankly to Vladimir Putin when the pair met at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games last week. "I said this violence is unacceptable," Mr Bush said, adding: "I was very firm with Vladimir Putin. Hopefully this will get resolved peacefully." However, in a telephone call to Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili, the US Vice-President, Dick Cheney, said Russian aggression "must not go unanswered". ![]() |

Ok, tell us Serb how can anyone take your claims that Georgia is the agressor seriusly? Dude Russia is a great power while Georgia is a weak eastern European country. Can you explain what in the world they would have been thinking when they decided "ah hell lets just start a war against a major nuclear power for a bit of fun!" EEEVERYONE IS AGAINST SACRED MOTHER RUUUSSIAAA!!! Just watch the video Serbs sig links to. |

Perhaps 500 years, optimistically, 200 years. The world would have to be majorly unified, not just geographically, but culturally, intellectually and lots of other "lly's" as well. So, never. |

Your country being aggressor is a valid opinion (fact to me, but I'm being generous) and not a troll. You have much to learn. 1) Then what is agressor in your dictionary? 2) Tell me, do you believe or not that Georgian army started the major offence and bombarded the South Osetian capital with heavy artillery and Grads, nearly a day before a first Russian tank entered the South Osetia? 3) Doesn't it make Georgia an agressor? 4) Do you realize that Russian forces are trying to repel invided Georgians from the South Osetia (the place where Georgian soldiers shouldn't be according to the cease-fire treaty Georgians signed in 1992), not to conquer Georgia? |

Yes, but tell me how may times in history has the power that has been completley outmatched by a factor of a douzen to one been the agressor? In any case its always best to side with the weaker side. I mean it saves you a lot of thinking. ![]() ![]() |
