there's a reason Odessa, Texas is named for Odessa, Ukraine, after all
Yes, because the Permian Basin in TX around Odessa is named after the Permian-age rocks, which were in turn named for Permia in Russia, near the Ukraine.

Never try to out-rock the geologist, Derek! ;-)

My wife bought me a T-shirt that says "Geologists make the Bed Rock!"

She can't understand why I don't wear it in public.

Response lost to unconformity, of which the only trace remaining is the term 'old fossil'.

The Exchange

I think that Sun Tzu would be a little distracted by the Suicide Bombings (Gunpowder and gravel in Bamboo tubes) in the Capital and Provincial Cities to think straight.

Phosphor wrapped in wet cloth is the ideal delayed fuse firelight when it comes to burning down crops and torching dry timber buildings.

Saying things like "nuke the bastards" in discussions like this is PRECISELY the reason why people see americans as arrogant and uneducated.

Not that all americans are, I'll admit.

OK Sissy,

Lets take a look at the last time someone "Nuked the Bastards": The US President of the Day (TRUMAN?) justifed nuking Nagasaki and Hiroshima as 'Naval Bases'. Like San Fransico and New York are 'Naval Bases'. If you can set precedents like that, then you can justify Nuking entire nation States for Harboring Terrorists.
