I don't know why we bother with Europe, the whole thing is flawed, we
would be much better off with the dollar and become the 51st state
and we could go back to Imperial measurements far better than all
this foreign muck that no one wants.


Just as George Orwell layed out the basis of his "1984".


We were an airstrip in that, not a state.


Conforms to one of Duncan Campbell's books in 1984 (!) - "The
Unsinkable Aicraft Carrier"
