Hmmm,

The British Empire must, as one would expect, have an Emperor, and
particularly a British Emperor. If we scan the list of Royals over
time, certainly Britain had an Emperor (Carausius) during the Roman
era (hardly worth claiming as being British when you bend your knee to
Rome and that empire didn't even claim Wales).

Nearly as far back ago, there was a ship called Emperor.

There are a specie of penguins called Emperor.

Almost 100 years ago there was a George who went by Emperor and like
our own was numbered. But it wasn't George Trois, in fact it was
suggested that this George adopt the title "Emperor of the British and
Hanoverian Dominions," but he refused (and this suggestion only came
after 1802).

If we rummage around the list of Monarchs, then we find our recent
George, and Edward before him were "Emperors" and only of India. The
first "Emperor" was in fact an Empress (of that same named India).

So, by the question above, it must be discerned that in fact no one
ever took up arms against a GREAT BRITISH EMPIRE nor a MODEST BRITISH
EMPIRE nor even a PIDDLIN' BRITISH EMPIRE. So this usage of BRITISH
EMPIRE must in some sense mean the East India Trading Company (since
the only monarchs called Emperor/Empress are uniquely associated with
that sole state in our antipodes. The East India Trading Company held
property in Hudson Bay, so to put this presumed conflict into the

The white house is dense. The U.S. has been spending 8 billion a year
just to improve Iraqi infrastructure so foreigners might invest in a
place with no law and order. The infrastructure is in desparate need of
repair from war, sabotage, crime, and neglect.

Bush needs to put aside his bias against socialist programs, in a state
which was socialist under addam, and inaugurate WPA and PWA type
programs tp put Iraqi idle minds and hands to work now. This would
immediately put money into the hands of spenders. It would give Iraquis
a stake in the future of Iraq.

Halliburton, Kellog, Brown and Root, et al can`t do it. They aren`t
Iraqis. We`ve been unable to enforce law and order and won`t until it is
clear to be in the best interest of Iraqis to maintain law and order.

Hi Richard,

As acknowledge by the white house, this Trillion dollar sink hole is
putting money down the toilet by buying bullets to protect against
suicide bombers (hasn't worked - ever - this has been going on since
Nobel invented dynamite).

Simple resolution with that same Trillion dollars that WOULD solve
things would be to set up shop next door to the guys strapping sticks
of TNT to the Iraqi's vests. Instead, offer to strap packs of $100
for every stick of dynamite they might have lined up for.

Let's say that they would come out looking like a Chia Pet with
$50,000 glommed onto them.

We could do this with every man, woman, and child in all of Iraq.

It won't happen, of course, because there is no will to win the war -
only to fight one. Except for those who have something better to do
with their lives (indirect quote of the draft dodger who shunned
military service to run this corporate franchise called the Pentagon).

When WW-2 ended, Churchill was out.

You need something like a battle to be a wartime leader. Hitler had
"Mein Kampf". He and Mussolini wore military uniforms. So did Tojo and
Stalin (Saddam`s role model). Military costumes are worn by most
Latin-American dictators. Fidel Castro (El Comandante) is an example.
Take Mexico, their revolution was almost a century ago, yet the party
which ruled the country until the last election was the Partido
Revolutionario Institutional. Got to keep that military thing alive to
be the leader of choice. Fortunately our president is required to be a
civilian.

The war may get you re-eleected no matter how bably you wage it.

Hi Richard,

white house marching orders were to ignore the ammo dumps (museums,
relief agencies, nuke sites, industrial areas, power plants, water
works, ...) to looters and to protect the energy offices in the
capital.

Once the energy offices were secured, new orders to ignore the
wandering deserters, stay out of the desert smuggler lanes, and avoid
borders - to take command of the pipeline.

Once the pipeline was taken, new orders to ignore securing the
pipeline, or protecting the fields and plants, and to shrug off the
terminals and ports until Haliburton arrived.

Once Haliburton arrived, new orders to abandon military operations to
protect foreign workers (from the US of course), and convert aid
workers to informants for intelligence operatives (increasing the
demand on the Armed Forces to protect even more civilians) and to
patrol in advance of civilian operated trucking operations. Military
personnel were diverted from mission to build and secure the "Green
Zone," a soviet style encampment modeled after Kabul during the
(failed) occupation.

Then reduce troop count.

Then raise troop count.

Then extend tours.

Then cap retirement and discharges.

Then institute rotations guaranteed for 10 years out. Not to mention
being humbled into a death gratuity raise, and more pay. Quick
discharge for those medically unfit due to "non-combat" injuries (a
bureaucratic double shuffle).

Clearly there is absolutely no will to win. There is every will to
balance this war on the back of men in uniform though and to rob the
treasury to pay contractors 5 to 10 times as much to do the same work
of a qualified grunt, who has to train these clowns and then take an
RPG while watching their backs.

The draft dodgers and goldbricks that inhabit the administration never
learned the lessons of Vietnam - they had more important things to do
with their life when other men in uniform were preserving freedom and
Democracy and standing against the Communist menace.

A lot of the "security contractor" thing is a charade anyway.
Before the stop-loss insanity, many of the qualified smart grunts and

We Americans are are at the root of all the worlds problems. It has been so
stated by Saddam Hussen, Castro, and various other idiots, and now
confirmed by you.

Find a spot on my big fat hairy McDonalds eating ass and kiss it. I weary of
your anti American rhetoric and lack of appreciation for saving your sorry
asses!

You fail to take responsibility for your own lives and like petulant
children find it easier blame America.

It's a shame it took so long.



We "funded" the IRA?


The British have always been under the impression that
we Americans saved our pennies for the sole purpose of
sending them to the IRA to finance the IRA's terrorist practices.
This is news to those of us who lived through the whole
era without giving anyone anything, or even taking sides
on the issue. There may have been a few Irish expatriots on
the East Coast who contributed to the IRA during that time,
but, for most Americans, it was a struggle that just didn't
register.

I have always used the CFA as a mobile antenna!

Get with the program people, you will be hard pressed to find a better
antenna for this purpose!

As a shack antenna, it sucks!

However, what other antenna can you chuck a motor into, slap a
steering wheel and horn on and drive?

Actually, just did a quick webbing and found enough to
realise that the claims are founded upon feet of clay.....

1. You do not separately excite the E and H fields because
if you excite an E field, you get a corresponding H field, and
vice-versa,
even if it is your intention to excite separately.

2. The differential forms of Maxwell describe the fields at _EVERY_
infinitesimal point and there is no way that the attempt to excite
two
separate fields from two separate mechanical contrivances will
result
in registration at every single point. Indeed, it is doubtful that
registration
will be achieved at all at any infinitesimal point. In any case, as
in (1) above,
your E field will have its H, and your H field will have its E field
already.

3. In the accepted equations describing the generated field,
radiation comes only
from accelerating charges. Thus the capacitive elements of the CFA
will
create the near field (decaying as 1/(r^2)) but not any radiated
field
(decaying as 1/r). I wonder if the measurements resulting in the
claims
for the CFA were made in the near field?

I wonder if the whole thing is intended as an elaborate hoax, and
that the
authors, in their original paper in Wireless World, relied on the
fact that
most readers' eyes would glaze over when faced with the maths of
vector
fields? (Remember, that in this NG we've had someone who boasts of
two degrees, one in maths and the other in electronics, stating that
e^(-jwt)
is a function that decreases with increasing time, thus indicating
that the
awarding of a degree together with the professing of mathematical
equations is no guarantee of competence!)

I suggest
http://farside.ph.utexas.edu/teachin...es/node53.html etc
as a good revising/learning/debunking cookbook. (Don't start from
node 53!)

CFA; any pointers to the patent claims?

The citizens in this country have never been armed, and in fact even
hand-guns for sport use were recently outlawed.

OK. For a police state to exist, the second step is saturation
video surveillance of the downtown area of your capital.


Good idea. It certainly helped the Brits nail down the perps.

The third step is to destroy the public library system through
non-judicially-supervised, on-demand, secret surveillance.


I hope you don't get your engineering information from CBS news too.

Never been there, though the news server my ISP utilizes is there. I
can also log onto one of several others from Texas to Nevada. All
prodigy. ISP: SBC. Go figure.

Firmly grounded?

Actually, when I am finished installing the mercedes turbo-jet engine
in the CFA, I plan on flying it!--well, after installing the carbon
graphite wings...
