Flame wars? Really? Did you all read that linux magazine article about how the editor thinks they are enjoyable reads? from my DROID On May 17, 2010 9:41 PM, "Bryan O'Neal" < Bryan.ONeal@theonealandassociates.com> wrote: Did you not even read you cited references? It is more like if I called your mama fat beat you up and then drove off down the street in your car after tossing you a few bucks and a pick of your naked sister out the window onto your limp body and then when the cops showed up made you say thank you and apologize for wasting my time ;) Not that I am complaining. I think it was a bold move that paid off very, very, well. But denying the nature of the conflict is like saying the Civil War was fought over slavery. It is fine for your Jr. High text book but when grow, otherwise intelligent, people try spouting that stuff they are either American idiots or just don't care. To quote from the wikipidia page you cited. "The Mexican–American War was an armed conflict between the United States and Mexico from 1846 to 1848 in the wake of the 1845 U.S. annexation of Texas, which Mexico considered part of its territory despite the 1836 Texas Revolution. In addition to a naval blockade of the Mexican coast, American forces invaded and conquered New Mexico, California and parts of northern Mexico. Another American army captured Mexico City, forcing Mexico to agree to the sale of its northern territories to the U.S." On Mon, May 17, 2010 at 8:47 PM, JD Austin wrote: > > > On Mon, May 17, 2010 at... > --------------------------------------------------- > PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lis...
