    Default Internet Infancy

    You can't help smiling at the naive expectations of the Internet in the early 1990's, as shown in this old CBC news footage.

    Well, Total War 'jocks', how has it been for you? Do you enjoy your 'restrained' crosscultural communication without swearing or personal putdowns?

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
