Well here is what 20 year CIA agent, former chief the unit tracking Bin Laden, and anti war writer Michael Scheuer has to say about this.  An Iraq style invasion is unlikely but war is certain.

The problem with Johnson is that he is really a nobody.  I'd be very surprised if he gets 2%.  Even if he gets 2% he'd still be a nobody because Libertarian party he has no base anywhere.  By base I mean other elected officials representing Libertarian party.

For Johnson running for president is like trying to build a roof with no walls and no foundation.  Build a solid foundation first by electing Libertarians at the State levels as a start and then moving to Congress and Senate.  Otherwise you might as well vote for Luke Skywalker and get the same results.

In any case the future looks very bleak for Libertarian party because majority will stick with Republicans.  Just like majority of Greens and far-left progressives will stick with Democrats.  And I see of no force or event that may change that.

Right on man we need to get relevant to local politics first, instead of wasting all this money on Presidential bids

Started smoking around 15 - 16 with Bali Shag and pipe tobacco.  Used to smoke Stokkebyes and Bali everday.  Nothing I smoked had additives and I never got addicited.  Haven't smoked in months although I pickup a pack of American Spirits (additive free) every two or three months.  Everyone I know who started on tailor made additive 'enhanced' cigs like Newports, Marlboros, and Kools, they're still hooked.

Thanks for the articles, I always thought that out of Africa didn't make any sense.

Can we really judge their health after watching a blurry two and a half minute video that was  edited for the most sensational effect?

As for interrupting our sleep at midnight, I've never done it myself but there is recent research that indicates our sleeping patterns before artificial lighting was in two phases:

In the early 1990s, psychiatrist Thomas Wehr conducted an experiment in which a group of people were plunged into darkness for 14 hours every day for a month.

It took some time for their sleep to regulate but by the fourth week the subjects had settled into a very distinct sleeping pattern. They slept first for four hours, then woke for one or two hours before falling into a second four-hour sleep.

Is there a way to change things so that the 'request another image' doesn't reload the entire page which erases what you've typed in the reply box?
