Happy Fourth of July


American Independence Day. How different might it have been if the American Revolution would take place today instead of 233 years ago. Perhaps with the technologies of today England would have beaten down the revolution. With today's tanks, missiles, airplanes available, England would have access to all of these and the colonists would not. The small arms available today would not be a match for the firepower of an Imperialist country like England.


But it all happened long ago, none of the modern tech stuff was available and the British were more concerned with their war with France than our little colonial revolt... thus... we won our independence.


Happy Birthday U.S.A.
