This little disc is the matrix of information, I feel like a god when I sift through the vast data base of limitless facts

Before they heavily edited and erased history, what a gem.

If similar events occur in the bodybuilding community and they start tearing down Sandow statues, I'll have to dust off my Encyschmoepedia Thongtanica

Technological development should have stopped in 1995.

Encarta 99 helped me with my homework for years.

Best to take notes on the confederate south - shits about to be erased

But Malcom X and Huey P Newton are Marveled -  but as far as violence goes , it WAS used at one time by each as a tactic , the confederate south wasn't strictly about enslavement - what does Encharta say ???


I grew up, up north but my fam is southern
I have some old confederate money and a sword my ancestor carried as a confederate general
I always heard stories about the Yanks burning crops and all that was left for the family was collards and black eyed peas on the field cause the yanks said 'no one would eat that shit'

We have those 2 veggies every New Year's Day


But i guess some 'brews will outlaw some more shit from 150years ago that offends them

I still have Mosby's Medical Encyclopedia on CD along with a bunch of other ones.  When I was doing security work and I had no internet access, I'd just pop it in and keep up with my studies.  Not only that, material in Encarta was controlled...wikipedia can be changed by any moron.

I remember a fact study between those two, and they had about the same error rate. This was at least 10-15 years ago. WP's quality is prob much better these days.
