    Why do all these olympic athletes have blood transfusion equipment?

    High red blood cell counts, it performs the same function as EPO without as much of the risk. Someone got busted at the last summer Olympics for this because he turned up positive for the steroid test even though he wasn't taking them at the time. Seemed he was on the drugs whenever he had the...

    I searched for this, but I didn't find anything. If there is I apologize in advance. I'd like to hear some explanations for the statistics that the LDHH released concerning the mortality % of Katrina victims. It seems the results are quite different so far than what most people are probably...

    100 Medival Knights vs. 100 Samurai

    Please give me an example of Mongols ever fighting Frankish heavy cavalry. You are probably thinking of Arab horsemen. The Romans and later the Franks had the same problem with the Arabian soldiers because they refused to engage hand to hand and would run their horses away and sit and shoot...

    How Do You Define Fantasy?

    King Kong has been called "fantasy" by many, many reviewers and all it has is a bigass monkey, no magic, swords, or ******, unless he slings it.

    How Do You Define Fantasy?

    IMHO I think that the term "fantasy" is used as a crutch by victims of public education who are unaware of any other philosophical mindsets other than post-Enlightenment. The term "fantasy" frequently (at least recently) is used for defining anything blatantly medieval or mythological in origin...

    Narnia and the Medieval Bestiary

    I thought I might share some of the insight that I have come across in my undergraduate and graduate work concerning the medieval bestiary. I reread the Chronicles of Narnia a few years ago after encountering the ideas presented within the bestiary and it made the books a great deal more...
