Do you think, right now, there's a sword fight ensuing somewhere?
Edited on Tue Nov-22-05 12:01 AM by DerekG
Loathe as I am to glorify violence, it somehow seems comforting to think that somewhere in the world, as I type this, there might be a couple of guys settling their business, Kurosawa-style.

I know I need professional help, but what do you think?

12. I've made my retreat as well, Reverend
As you could well attest, a very wise spirit man/social prophet/healer warned us about living by the GD, er...sword.

15. Look at it this way, it takes endurance t o swing a sword
Most of this country would be winded within the first ten minutes of a conflict.

18. yeah, but I like swords....
some of us think that swords are very civilized.

However, I know realize that this question is a GD metaphor. ;) And that is another question, entirely.
