... last night He made me argue that the offensive imperialism adopted by Rome in the 1st century BC gave Caesar a more effective war machine than Scipio Africanus had available from the defensive imperialsim model used in the second Punic war and so that if pitched against each other Scipio would win. I say Scipio could take Caesar in a fight ... DV thinks I am on crack and says Caesar could beat anyone .. even DV.
First, you clearly do not know Ceaser very well, must I remind you that it was Ceaser who was the first Roman to cross the Rhine? He built a bridge across the river, marched his entire legion into Germania, looked around for ten days, then marched back across the Rhine pulling up the bridge behind him.
Until then, the Germanic tribes had kicked the butt of every Roman Legion that went up against them!
Scipio couldnt take Ceaser in a fight even if Ceaser was 10 days into a 30 day drunk with a broken arm.
And some people insist that women are the intellectual equals of men!!
the above sarcastic remarks were brought to you courtesy of a lunatic historian who missed his shock treatments.
Trav, been there done that and got a tshirt.... Now personally, I think Greedy Top hires a staff of these ladies to lead us poor Dominent men along and then when we think we found miss perfect they vanish.
I hereby request that the CM secret police invistigate this matter, and rs should volunteer to be the interogator.
