@@joefromravenna I can believe that. Our school's outhouse had no running water, so if we wanted to wash our hands, we had to go quite the distance to the taps. Needles to say, first graders never did.

@Wave Rider OMG to hear that was your normal everyday way of life in the 80's and 90's is astonishing! I mean, it's not unheard of here in the US for people living far out in the countryside to use outhouses and they still use septic tanks, but for a whole neighborhood to make use of such old technology is unheard of. In fact, when my father bought riverfront property in a town of less than a 100 people we tore down the old outhouse. So did my cousins, uncle, and my friends. This was during the late 70's, so there must've been a sweeping change in plumbing, water supply and sewage disposal during the 50's and 60's.

Basically Putin uses a strategy that defies any humane considerations.

They're getting a generation's worth of males and send them to die. Now if train after train carrying thousands of death soldiers would be heading for Moscow, the public opinion will turn. These regions is cleansed of healthy men are are rather unorganized. Therefore Putin will declare soldiers missing in action...because their families would receive a military pension.

@@richardshirley2786 inspired? Helping them to the tune of tens of billions, and all this sanctions BS, has set my nation back decades. F them, sincerely. Someone gets invaded 10,000 miles away and my leaders CHOOSE to blow up our economy to help, no. Resentment is very high among a large part of the Us. We're falling apart, stop the world police crap.
