I guess this now officially a "dead thread".

Over the last five months from the time I originally started thin thread this nation, plus the entire world, has sunk even lower - and at an accelerated rate. The world's progress in political violence, military conflicts, financial crises, moral and spiritual instability seems to have hit a...

LOL I must have run everyone off. It's been a week since the update and no comments. Perhaps that's the best comment of all..

Well, I think I got most of the language problems solved. If not, please let me know., After of all, this was an attempt to collect a bunch of forum posts and put them into a single article, rather than do a complete rewrite. Formatting was changed, fount changes, etc, plus some missing words...
