The original post was clearly "tongue in cheek".........

Cav, you may want to note, THE COLD WAR IS OVER.
I submit to you that just because CNN tells you the Cold War is over doesn't make it so. If you take the time to read global strategic reports, such as DEBKA, Jane's Defense Weekly and others you will become quickly aware that the former Soviet War Machine is still alive and well and proliferating both conventional and nuclear arm around the globe. Just last week they announced a deal to sell SA-300 SAMs to Syria. Just last year they announced a deal to support the further development and completion of Iran's nuke weapons program. During the invasion of Iraq, we uncovered dozens of
CURRENT Russian military technologies that were expressly forbidden under UN sanctions. Oh yeah, and their president was the head of KGB operations.
You keep on believing what you want, I'll keep preparing for the truth.

also Rusia is not in Europe it is in Asia,
Do they teach geography in MD? Russia, including the most populous Western regions are in fact European. Those territories of Russia lying west of the Ural Mountains and north of the main Caucasus watershed are considered as part of Europe.

since you are concerned about europeons getting involved in classification , you may also be intrested to know that Charles Darwin came up with the whole idea of classification of animals and he is well, english and england is in europe not in asia.
The word "Europe" or "Asia" was never brought up in the original post. :shrugs:

I really dont think cornsnakes care much about our ever changing classification of them or where the herpatoligist that classify them came from anyway.God forbid we give any credibility to them there foreiners.
My original point was that all the hullabaloo isn't really a problem or an issue IMO that needs "changing" and certainly doesn't warrant any additional response on my part. Now watch out Jason or I and the rest of the Son's of Liberty will classify you as a Tory Loyalist and tar and feather you in the public square! :grin01:

The director of which is an American, living and working in America. Join your countrymen and stop being so outdated.
Ah, but the
study was originally completed by Russian scientists, in a Russian Journal. My official duties dictate that I must be suspicious of and cantancerous toward socialists. :twoguns:
Does anyone else find it interesting that my more antagonistic posts always receive the exact response I intended?? I feel like a conductor of an orchestra.
