www.reformation.org/what-hath-god-wrought.html The first Atlantic under water cable was sabotaged in Ireland by Druid Edward Whitehouse.


Nope. The cable had inadaquate insulation and was failing very soon
after it's completion. Whitehouse kept raising the voltage on a
terminally ill cable in order to keep it minimally operational. There
was no sabatoge. This all happened in 1858.


It is said he could be called the man who started the U.S.Civil War.


Only a moron would say that. Aside from the timeline -- 1858 vs 1861,
there's no way that Richmond could have communicated with London through
Canada without Lincoln reading the mail first.


Without gurantees of British help, the Rebels never would have fired on Fort Sumpter.


Bull****. They fired without any sort of guarantee. They expected
that the British NEEDED Southern cotton but the Brits already had a
surplus of cotton and were able to devlop reliable supplies in Egypt and
India. Not to mention that almost 25% of grain in Britian came from
Northern US farms.

Stay put?

Always nice to have another fact free post from a k00ksite.

Are you going to join the Reformed Church?

Q.) Is it better to share a six pack with one member of the Reformed
Church or two members of the Reformed Church?

A.) It is better to share a six pack with TWO members of the Reformed
Church. That way, you get all the beer to yourself!
