Yeah, you wouldn't want to use it where the bomber streams are.

Duh! Of course not. It might get damaged in the bombing. Aren't you paying attention?ORIGINAL: sprior

I can only surmise that it would function much like modern radar, but instead of using it to find things the operation would differ. In a series of low level overflights of the UK (in the new Amerika-bomber no doubt, possibly flown by the real Rudolf Hess) the Luftwaffe would subject all the men in the British Isles to the deadly radar waves. Initially this would leave them sterile for six months, but a second overflight after that time would increase that to a further year. Then as 1944 dawns a third wave would see the entire population left sterile, thus causing the population of the UK to die out in just 50-60 years [X(]

The answer to this is not fit for a family forum.

Well he is a certified cockney geezer, innit (copyright Danny Dyer, 2007) He also has a wide range of charcters, such as Cockney geezer, a geezer from the East end of London (or possibly Lahndan), and even a working class geezer from London.

Why should it be only because we are bored that we may vent strong feelings about the Falkland Islands? The war is still very recent, and thus feelings are very raw, to dismiss it in that way.....
To be fair, the war was 29 years ago. I don't remember anyone in 1974 refering to WWII as "very recent". Maybe because we'd had so many in between times.
But that's not the main point. Sure, to some it is old hat, while to others it is as clear today as it was in 1982. To me personally, it feels like yesterday. Either way, the vast majority of servicemen that lost friends and colleagues or were injured in the war are still alive today, as are most relatives of those that died. Therefore, to even contemplate given up the Falklands is a momumental act of utter betrayal.

RE: THE THREAD!!!
In other news, I'm getting well acquainted with Steel Wolves. Like Brother Dixie said, once you get to know the rules, they make good sense, and the turns flow well (I'm about half-way through the fifth weekly turn, first week of October 1939).
In the first four weeks, 33 enemy ships totalling 162,000 tons have been sunk for the loss of one U-Boat. The biggest prize was the British carrier HMS Courageous, sunk by Otto Kretschmer in the North Sea.

NOOOOOOOOO!! The game is broken. Kretschmer didn't sink Courageous, that's impossible [:@]
