A National Tragedy. The worst

| 0 Comments

A National Tragedy. The worst part of all this, of course is that this is the end of the space program. As the government investigates what went wrong, the space program will be on hold for about 2 years. The one silver lining to this, is that if Bush is clever, he has a chance now to avert war, to refocus on issues internal to the nation, to not worry about the war with Iraq. But that won't happen.


I can see some interesting events coming from this though... an evacuation of the International Space Station, running it remotely for 2 years until some other nations decides to take over the ISS. We will see America shy away from future space exploration. I'm trying to figure out what this is like, and I'd actually have to point to the exploration of the New World.


Happy Chinese New Year.


Video game inspires crime


I've really changed over the past 5 years. I've gone from being a hard-core gamer to being an anti-gamer. This generation of children growing up now have never known a world without video games. We used to blame crimes on music, movies and television. Video games today are the popular scapegoat, as it supposedly trains these children to commit these crimes. The reason I despise games these days is not because of the crimes attached to video games, but rather the impact of video games upon society. I find it odd that we have specific sections of law to deal with crimes when alcohol is involved. Will video games get a section of law too?
