    Writing on the Walls (December 18, 2005)

    Hm... Maybe this is then just as it among political scientists... Not long ago I did a paper about millitary intervention by democratic coalitions in despotic systems. And in ALL the literture I used (something about thirty books and articles in german and english) they used the first, second...

    This is one famous Saddam picture... In the early 90ies there was leaflet showing four pigs. And it asked you to find the fith pig... and after some minutes of complex folding this Saddam picture appeared... was fun back then.... Anyway, I guess every second army on this Planet wears green...

    The second! First: Iran vs. Iraq Second: Allies vs. Iraq (Desert Storm a.o.) Third: Allies vs. Iraq Although I know that it is popular to call the war in the beginnings of the 90ies the first gulf war, among historians and political scientist it's the second... But 1992 is what i wanted to...

    P2 is Back!

    Mine works fine now. I had a thread at the tech section running about using an usb joystick which might help you. I always thought the easiest way to get the game run is this: Install it in dosbox and then put the winpatch over it and play it in windows. Not sure if you have to set it on win95...

    The Way Life Should Have Been (December 17, 2005)

    I guess it's not only an government issue. Most people are afraid of things they are not used to. So are parents. They are used to violence in TV but games themselfs are new and suspicious to them, not to speak of violence in games. And parents are voters. In 96 (IIRC in 96 WC was released)...

    The Way Life Should Have Been (December 17, 2005)

    I really still don't get where the problem was in those days. There was tons of blood in German TV. Blood, Sex, Blood.... all what makes life liveable. But we had a christian-conservative government in those days... may explain a lot...
