Modern-day warrior

While one need not necessarily buy LAGuy's direct historical causal trail leading to today's freedoms, it's surely disappointing to read this guy's idea of sacrifice: Most Greeks would have traded their homes in Athens for hovels in Sparta about as willingly as I would trade my apartment in Toronto for a condo in Pyongyang.

I'd expect that soon enough there'll be quite a market for condos in Pyongyang.

(Especially if W gets off his arse and finishes the job.)
