    I don't get why ebay sellers limit themselves to delivering only within their country. You obviously want to sell something, so the bigger the market the better. Simply reflect your costs in the postage. Now you get people who can't sell something, and you get people who can't buy it.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    But yeah, people are afraid of getting old for a reason. Apparently, it's very easy for your brain to stop functioning properly if you neglect to constantly use it during your senior years. I know many of my dad close friends who constantly work in their late 60's and 70's despite being wealthy. They're afraid that they'll become senile if they don't keep their brain active by keeping busy.
    Just a note: the truly awful thing about senility is that this doesn't prevent it. Sometimes the dice just roll the wrong way biologically and your brain eats itself alive.

    Also, yes, we went to the moon. If you have access to powerful Earth-bound telescopes, you could check out all the shit we left up there. The only "conspiracy" that is true about it is that the Moon race was obviously just an extension of the arms race and was being conducted to find a possible military advantage in space, which is barely even a secret, really.

    True, but strangely, the US signed a treaty to keep weapons of mass destruction out of LEO and outer space with the USSR long before the US landed on the moon, or even orbited it.
