Did you, or did you not, participate in the <Doolittle Raid>?>

The B-25 was called the Mitchell Bomber.

I officially no longer care what happens on the Fischer thread.

People get exactly what they want in the end, usually.

Thanks you guys-- When you or anyone else tells me they have copied and archived this thread, post the "GO AHEAD" here and I'm deleting all of it.

The time limit is FIVE DAYS.

Exactly FIVE DAYS from now I delete all of this and it's <AA Alekhine Shrine> again.

Thanks to you all-

On it everyone you know, everyone you love, everyone you've ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of all our joys and sufferings, thousands of confident religions, ideologies and economic doctrines. Every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilizations, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every hopeful child, every mother and father, every inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every superstar, every supreme leader, every saint and sinner in the history of our species, lived there - on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that in glory and triumph they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of the dot on scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner of the dot. How frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds.

Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the universe, are challenged by this point of pale light.

Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity -- in all this vastness -- there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves. It is up to us.

It's been said that astronomy is a humbling, and I might add, a character-building experience. To my mind, there is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly and compassionately with one another and to preserve and cherish this pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known. ”

In comparison, the pettiness of goings-on of Fischer page, or, for that matter, any other one, pales.

As for *Relax* ... Frankie Goes to Hollywood, yes?

All we need is for an admirer of Fischer to get a hold of the book and scan it, in its entirety, on the internet....So everyone can read it for free and nobody will pay for it anymore.

Then we can all have a good time poking fun at the bad writing...Maybe add some commentary to some of the more heinous phrases.

That reminds me of a show that used to be on TV, modelled after "Masterpiece Theatre", called "Disasterpiece Theatre"

<Trice> doesn't want the book scanned either. If he did, then he would have already done it himself, or ordered one of his minions to do it for him.

He's got what- 200-500 copies sitting there on his floor?

You'd think he'd just wait till all of you stop yelling at him all over the internet and then start trying to sell them- after the fuss has died down.

This may mean that you soldiers may have to spend the rest of your lives debunking this book and its creator.

Cause we wouldn't be the ones in a position to do that.

<jessicafischerqueen: But I've also banned Trice and Joshka from posting here for the last three days.>

Beware of <Labate>. I wouldn't touch him with a 10 foot pole.

Ewwwwwww! That's gross Eddie Labate!>

In honor of Ed Trice, the Messiah scene from "Life of Brian (starting about 2:10):

This is why someone needs to post it on the net in its entirety, so we can continue to give it the pillorying that it deserves long after the chat about it has died down on this and other forums.

I've found enough laughable phrases in '61MG' just in the pages I've read...If we could post it all on the net, it could provide endless hours of fun and satire!

It's the only way to keep the fact that the book is a fraud fresh in people's minds...So future potential buyers can search for it on the net and see it for free (with the comments!)
