It appears that Troy Goodfellow has been and is something of a fixture as far as computer gaming is concerned, having written more critiques and blogs than anyone else upon games of all types for many years.

I have awaited the return of Mikel's site with great anticipation, and am extremely pleased to see it resurrected in so fine a fashion. There is no other similar site that can compare with the depth of this historical collection of photos of the general officers of the American Civil War. |

There seems to be a work stoppage by the glassblowers trades in the North, a deplorable condition given our dependence upon fresh beer and spirits as a integral element of our field army commissaries. So we are here to retrieve a... |

Nice work, Pierre! |
