Re: Grenfell Tower Block Fire in London
Nothing wrong with rebuilding with wood, necessarily. Depending on how the fire behaves and the type of building it can actually be better than steel structurally because it will hold it's strength longer at high temperatures. I wouldn't think the structural beams in a building this size would be w...

Re: World of Tanks (new thread)
I'm doing the daily missions for the new tier 8 premium tank (named T25 something?) which does looks pretty nice. And in contrast with the T-34-100* marathon, the missions actually seem doable (so far). Well, I got the first 6 or 7 days of the T25 Pilot 1 missions done without issue, but then but a...

Re: SC Governor calls for removal of Confederate flag
They can start by ejecting Lee's statue from Gettysburg. Unless what I've read of Lee is inaccurate, I don't agree with that. If he was a voice in favour of ex-Confederates accepting their defeat gracefully, he's a good example for these Confederacy-loving idiots to follow. Unless what I've read of...

Re: SC Governor calls for removal of Confederate flag
Good. Next should be the removal of any and all statues of the various Confederate generals displayed on public lands. They can start by ejecting Lee's statue from Gettysburg. I don't care to see a memorial to the general-in-chief of the army of secessionists in a northern state, of all places.
