~By Drew Carey ~
Well, right now, I'm very fascinated with 1920s Berlin. I mean, probably the more interesting thing would be to go to the beginning of civilization or precivilization - like polytheistic times.

~By Jimmy Chamberlin ~
Energy consumption matters both to our environment and our economy.
~By John Baldacci ~
