Now for fairness' sake, of course you can start launching ICBMs to shoot down my stuff. Then it'd be a war between the people who can fire the most ICBMs without them getting shot or my own defenses and orbital cannons. :wink:

Believe it or not, I think that for the most part the members of SD.net would make good dictators, compared to what we've got today. At the very least, they would help unify the government, as opposed to having different governments and groups with no real ideological problems fight against each other. We would certainly value human rights (improving the lives of vast numbers of people) like freedoms of speech. While the freedom of religion might be OFFICIALLY abolished, I don't see any way we could possibly enforce such a mandate, and I think that muhc of the world's economy would be improved by our rational applications of ideas.

Now, life in developed countries would probably get a little bit worse, but for the majority of people living in developing nations I think that life would improve.

1) Not a stupid question.
2) No, I'm not, but I would very much like to be.
3) I actually spent six fabulous months there and loved it very much and am simply dying to return.
4) I did get a bit of an Aussie accent towards the end of my trip, though. :wink:
5) Guess that means you don't love me already. Phooey. :D
If you are English, though.. I AM MOVING IN WITH YOU! (can you please say "at all" and "thank you for your call" in British accent?) You got me, right then and there.
Nope, I am not British either, so I guess we won't be moving in together anytime soon. :D

Hmmm...interesting....In that case, I'll have to have the map of the Earth already programmed into the satellites, with a program that accounts for the rotation of the planet and each satellites' own movement and orientation. That way, if you blind my satellites, they just call up the map of the earth, reorient themselves according to stored data, then repeatedly blast the hell out of the offender's continent.

As for EMP, I can always install stuff to resist emp (stuff like that exist, right?). Or satellites from other portions of the world engage their drives and maneuver to atomize Sea Skimmer's nation :P


Anyway, whatever. Just what I would do if faced with aggression as stated by you. :mrgreen:

hmmm..... After reading over what everyone has, I claim the following.

Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Oregon, Washington State, and Alaska These are mine. You can keep the rest of the US cause I don't want it.

I also claim Iceland, Santorini, Krakatau, and Stromboli.

(Incidentally, I don't live in NJ anymore, so I don't have the big scary hair, the fake nails, or the accent--I've got more of a subtle Southern accent from Maryland now, and my hair feels like hair and not hair products and my nails are 100% natural :D )

Heh. I'm doing this for your own good. Whadda ya mean "abuse of power"? I'm improving things, in my own way. You're either with us or against us.

Isn't that what dictators say to justify themselves? Look at Mugabe. He forcibly kicked out the white farmers and redistributed their land in the interests of righting historical wrongs.

I'm sure that there are some SDnet members who can rule better than Mugabe. What I'm questioning here is the intestinal fortitude and not letting the power corrupt you.

Of course power corrupts. I'll have my hordes of female followers. Doesn't mean I'm not going to do anything good. But I might as well make with the sweet sweet loving while I'm at it. :twisted:

EMP shielding only works to a point. And with nothing to ground to, you can't have much at all. Not to mention I'd be following up with my own laser armed aircraft to cut you platforms into tiny peices.
