The best defense ...

Post by Surlethe »

... is a completed defense with all committee members' signatures. Now all that stands between me and some letters is paperwork.
A Government founded upon justice, and recognizing the equal rights of all men; claiming higher authority for existence, or sanction for its laws, that nature, reason, and the regularly ascertained will of the people; steadily refusing to put its sword and purse in the service of any religious creed or family is a standing offense to most of the Governments of the world, and to some narrow and bigoted people among ourselves.

A decision must be made in the life of every nation at the very moment when the grasp of the enemy is at its throat. Then, it seems that the only way to survive is to use the means of the enemy, to rest survival upon what is expedient, to look the other way. Well, the answer to that is 'survival as what'? A country isn't a rock. It's not an extension of one's self. It's what it stands for. It's what it stands for when standing for something is the most difficult! - Chief Judge Haywood

Congratulations, Surlethe! :)

Impeccable timing, too. This thread was posted on a date 100 years since Finland gave its declaration of independence, you got your degree confirmed the day after and today (100 years after our Declaration of Independence was ratified by the Parliament), you can celebrate both your degree and Finland's Indpendence day! :p

Hey, Edi. I was wondering where you were. Haven't posted much in awhile.

And congrats Surl :) I still say American schools should follow the Finnish (or is it Swedish?) tradition of giving Ph.D graduates a top hat and a sword...

Congrats!
A minute's thought suggests that the very idea of this is stupid. A more detailed examination raises the possibility that it might be an answer to the question "how could the Germans win the war after the US gets involved?" - Captain Seafort, in a thread proposing a 1942 'D-Day' in Quiberon Bay
