Apparently that is a mistake in the article, Ric. I had somehow thought it was a comic before the MTV series, but it says nothing of the sort on Wikipedia.
I know! And he has ABSOLTUTEY no reason at all to be mad at you! It's not like you tracked him down at another website after he had politely quit trolling here and flamed on another website. I mean, he's just being so mean!
Jed's point is that France goes on and on in the UN and in public discourse about how everyone else should be as humanitarian as they are, and yet their people walk by a homeless guy on the street and don't seem to be batting an eyelash.
Texas and the US in general let their actions speak for them, be it for good or ill.*

I typically only download songs I already own on CD or a DVD, or obscure/unknown bands whose CDs aren't typically sold in America. But when I do, I normally use Limewire.

And I knew Adam couldn't be 10. Though, that would have made him 4 when he first saw TPM in theatres, which is pretty close to the intended audience age
I actulluy liked TPM when I first seen it, now it is not so good.
I still think it is an alright movie. It just doesn't feel much like Star Wars.
If that is what Sage was trying to say, he should have explained it better. I'm no fan of France, but there are sadly places in the UK and America where the same thing would happen.
Well, if you believe the Jedi Vergere, there IS no darkside to the Force, only in people. When people use the Force selfishly, they are using the "Dark Side."
Theoretically, the power of the Dark side could tear stars apart of you tapped into it enough, or, if Palpatine's story of Darth Plagus it to be believed, it can create life.
Alternatively, the power of Darkseid could just be his nasty omega beams. Look what they did to poor Dan Turpin! [/geek]
