I will see everyone in a year or so. Keep working on WITP. If I get the chance, I will drop a line from sunny Iraq to everybody.
To all my opponents, I expect a re-match when I get back.[X(][:D][:D][:D][:D]
Later Everyone.

RE: Later Everyone.
If anyone still does not realize this, Scott is ex regular military who put his comfy civie life on hold (has a real pretty and sweet sounding girlfriend he wants to marry and a profitable contracting business) to re up with the National Guard and do his duty for his country overseas. Not many I know who would or have done that.
My utmost respect Scott.[&o]

It doesn't make any sense, Admiral. Were we better than the Japanese or just luckier?

Good luck and God Speed Scott
I was just thinking about Iraqu and realized something. Iraqu goes back to the dawn of recorded history. Hammurabis code is the first written law and written law is one of the foundations that underpins modern society, without it you can't have a modern democracy.
But in all its long history Iraqu has never had an election. At least not until a bunch of guys like Scott showed up and 8 million very brave people gave the (purple dyed) finger to the terrorists who said "if you vote, we will kill you."
Its a pretty amazing thing, to write the laws in 1750 BC have the concept change and travel to all over the world and then be brought back for the first vote in a countries history.
