How "EXTREMELY" unpopular can what youve got to say
be, (??) when your dealing with only 6% of the world's
population? :)

Sorry, that particular war is not open for discussion
until the year 2030, or else after 99.7 percent of the
'baby boom' generation has passed on, whichever is

related photographs all you want. Myself I'm hot on
the trail of some silver gelatin prints of the
American Revolutionary War.
