What you say is true, but as far as I can remember, they were firing outside of the water into it, and it was the change of medium which made the bullet disintegrate.

Seems to me they're all fairly long except for the middle one. What we've really learned is which she uses to play with.

Bah, an infinite amount of monkeys with an infinite amount of typewriters in an unlimited timeframe would have still discarded this suggestion as white noise.

US serial numbered guns were delivered by federal agencies into Mexican gangs. Israel executes and arrests people on other nations territories due to an illegal concept of world-jurisdiction.

It's funny that people think we have any choice about what we do even when there is only one timeline involved

Mmm, Let's put it in orbit and bring it back down to the landing site to appease the green lobby. Everybody happy

*raises a hand timidly* I'm fairly happy my head of state is an extra-political entity.

Esther makes me happy =3

If you're looking for a timeframe in which the US will feel optimistic again after being beaten down like you predict; Britain has only just come out of the malaise this summer. We feel that it's really quite freaking amazing to be British. My grandfather's generation were probably the last to say that.

Wow, that is a really good question.
