War show

I agree with you (too), everyone knows how horrible is war, without the TV/press atrocity exhibition of war scenes and killings. And if these things are shown all the time you can get used to it and concider is something normal. But I think that maybe it can work as a reminder; to remember what the war effects are and not support it (and those who make it) specially in the case that someones nation fight this war. Is in everybody's hand not to get manipulated and to choose reliable and quality information sources that present facts/information as close as possible to the truth and don't cause/create fanatism and hatred. Of course there is no need to display the name of the soldiers who kill or die and present them as heroes. War has victims not heroes. Heroes indeed belong to the history books.
P.S. What I liked the most about her topic was the fact that she read greek history/epic poem and published her oppinion in her blog.
P.S.2 How do you put a link in a comment? Copy URL?

  1. Hi, Nikos

    I understand what you are saying. I was not trying to take a side, just present my view. It is indeed cool that she read the Iliad (maybe I should read it again too since it has been a while since I last visited it).
    For your question about URLs in a comment. Use the following:

    <a href='http://URL'> LINK DESCRIPTION </a>

    The URL is the address (like www.gmail.com) and the LINK DESCRIPTION is what you want the reader to click on.

    PS. I am working on a new game... Penguin Soccer. When it is done I will post it.

    Later

  3. No Nikos,

    Do not worry. DLL files are library files that contain precompiled code that is needed in order to run the tetris game. I used SDL to create the game, and since I do not know if you have SDL (most likely you do not), I included it with the game.
