Growing style

<t>Way to go JacksDad, rose gardening must be both challenging and frustrating. Gardening in Florida is frustrating! I believe organic is the way to go though, once you have the soil under control the plants take care of themselves (compost compost compost!). Organic pest management can be tricky bu...

Odinism

<t>I didn't mean to infer there was a discussion per se going on about Odinism.

Conquest of the Incan empire

<t>Well, watched a very interesting National Geographic/Nova episode on PBS Tuesday night on the excavation of the graves of Indians killed in the seige of Lima in 1536 entitled "The Great Inca Rebellion". Cause of death for most of the Indian casualties was not from European weapons but were from s...
