Basque in the glory of being the first one to get it right (though it took you a minute and 39 seconds to do so).

Sorry, I don't have notifications on.

Something Shirt Something.  That's all I remember.  I do recall reading about the fire.  Victims were overwhelming immigrant women, and the fire was, I believe the most deadly in NYC history until 9/11.

An easy one for some here:  what is the only surviving Pre-Indo-European language native to Europe?

I think that Finnish is native to Europe...  Also all those weird languages in the Caucuses.
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

A desire to bath in the blood of Irishmen?

I guess I always thought Oliver was a descendent of Thomas. I guess this is where I learn that is not true.
