Tim, you really have got to stop reading slate.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

Slate generally just features a bunch of histrionic editorials. Very rarely does one come across anything value and when there is ever a nugget of information, you generally have to look it up somewhere else as the writer is so explicitly biased towards their own point of view.
