Since the previous thread just hit 50 pages and is over one and half years old, let's get a new one going!

The old thread was nearly 800 posts under the limit! Let's not start lowering standards before we find ourselves with Update Season XLVII. Reopen the old one, please.

Our resident Ethiopian warrior has a point here.

Ah, I had no idea 2000 posts was an official limit. I thought 50 pages was a nice cutoff. What does everyone else think?

Obviously Ottawa or Halifax style amalgamation incorporating rural areas is dumb. But balkanizing a metro area, thus making metropolitan governance and planning much more difficult, is even worse.

I really do not see what is wrong with the amalgamation of Toronto, for example. The only argument I've seen against it really is that it was a plan to gerrymander the city conservative--but considering that greater Toronto is a right-wing area, that's sort of tough luck. Toronto (and in this sense I include Pickering and Oshawa and Scarborough, which are as much a part of the city as downtown) is a right-wing city.

What an honor! Thank you, Antonio.

I think most of the forum agrees that you are the master of this discipline. Wink And, to properly inaugurate the thread, here's your latest contribution!

FF. It's sad his state is too partisan to give him a statewide post.

Yeah, those mean Washingtonians, refusing to elect a guy whose views they disagree with to placate a random "independent" in Minnesota. Roll Eyes

An embarrassment to his heroic brothers.

Being an 'embarrassment' to such a fetid specimen of a human being as John F. Kennedy is certainly a feat.

Is Atlas so thirsty for 2016 news that we're pretending Jim Webb is a real candidate?

Anyway, I know of the problems black people have here. But at least they are not hunted down and shot dead on a regular basis like in the US.

It's a special kind of sad when people make it a priority to post a thread when they get drunk.

Exactly.  This is the Atlas Forum.  You either have sex with men, or not at all.  Mainly the latter.
