General Discussion / SHIT!

But think about this-was the task any more formidable in WW2? America wasn't the "Superpower" that she is now-what did those people feel? To fight an entrenched, veteran German and Japanese army with untested green troops-hell, it took years just to build up the materials necessary to fight. I'm sure there were a lot of nay-sayers then as well. It took the whole country to come together-food was rationed, as well as certain metals and rubber-all to help the war effort. Everyone-little kids even-hunted for scrap to recycle. I think (hope?) we're all aware of what we are up against. There's a lot of chest-thumping going on, bluster and bravado, and some of it's a natural reaction from people. I don't know-I guess what I'm saying is just because it's hard-hell, almost impossible, that doesn't mean you shouldn't try. And even if you fail, I think that there's something good and noble in that.
