11/9    I just noticed that the English Wikipedia page for Gangnam Style is
        four times as long as the Korean page.
        \_ It probably needs more explanation here.  But maybe Korean is 4x
           as dense as English anyway?

12/5    Romney is right after all -- our military does need more horses and
        bayonets!  http://www.csua.org/u/y3j  Romney for 2012!
        \_ I'd never considered Romney's campaign as an ad for Revolution,
           but I guess that makes as much sense anything else.
        \_ The tax cut removal is ill timed.
        \_ holy crap. This is scary. US troops are most vulnerable as it is

7/21    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Cold_War_pilot_defections
        This week's food for thought, brought to you by People's
        Republic of Berkeley: Did you know that many US pilots defected to
        communist Cuba?  South Korea pilots defected to communist
        North Korea? Iran<->Iraq pilots defected to each other?
        W Germany pilots defected to E Germany? Taiwan/ROC pilots

12/19   Kim Jong Il died.

7/22    What's the quick rule to determine if a Korean name is male or
        female? I'd hate to address Mr/Ms incorrectly. For example, is
        Ji Hoon a male or female name? What about He Joon? Does "joon"
        have any gender connotation?
        \_ That's like asking a non-English speaker about difference
           between John and Jane.  There's no quick rule that can be

3/4     you'd think there would be a way to end north korea.
        we wouldm't even have to clean up.  We could make South Korea
        do it!
        \_ South Korea doesn't want to clean up North Korea's mess
           either.
        \_ Any suggestions?

2/28    SK Prez attempts to crush free speech, MBC posts on youtube

2/5     Funny, the country that started WW 1 and 2, and killed millions
        are viewed as the most favoriable.
        http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7873050.stm
        \_ They haven't killed as many Vietcongs, Korean commies, and
           Super EVIL Terrorists as America for the past 50 years.
           \_ Vietcong is already plural. You wouldn't say Chineses. --tt

1/26    The Google logo on http://www.google.com doesn't honor Lunar New Year.  Hmm.
        \_ Isn't that tomorrow?
           \_ It's today 1/26.
        \_ it's Chinese New Year.   The New Year is not a pure Lunar for almost
           400 years.  While is not very politically "sensitive," it is
           more accurate description, as the calendar was commissioned,

12/18   You know why US economy is messed up? North Korean SUPERNOTES.
        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superdollar

        Throughout WW2, Germany produced supernotes to ruin the
        British/US economy. N Korean is doing the very same thing today.
