| "This only applies to canned drinks."
For bottles tastes i would say the storage/temperature conditions will play a major factor, also how long its actually been inside the container, plastic containers will actually leak into the liquid over time (applies to ALL plastic bottled drinks). |

| When I went to the Oshkosh air show I loved taking the piss out of the P-51D, my Dad's mate was telling me how great it was but lost his rag when I quizzed him on the Rolls Royce badge  |

| No... I'm not ignorant when it comes to war type stuff (I don't claim to be an expert though!).... I've been teaching US and World history for over 5 years now, so I know a little bit!!! My two specialties are overall military history and the US Civil War.
So the UK helped us design and modify the P-51!!! Every major manufacturer in the world stopped what they were doing in order to support the war effort. Companies through out the Allied Forces were contributing and working together to making supplies, weapons, munitions, etc. What's next.... you going to take full credit for the Manhattan Project also?
And how soon you forget were sending the UK, Soviet Union and the rest of the Western Allies supplies while we were still militarily neutral.
And I'm pretty sure that if it weren't for the US, most of Europe would probably be speaking German and goose-stepping to the Konigratzer March (spelling?).
The only thing that dwarfs my Star Wars and Sports interest/collections is my interest and collection/contraband of WWII artifacts. I had several relatives who fought in WWII (2 never made it back) and brought a lot of cool stuff home with them.
I could argue and play devils advocate about this stuff all day!!!! A topic I know more about than vintage star wars toys that's for sure!!!!! |

Correction, you were selling us them (and were still paying  ) Yes we could go on all night but we wont will we - the manhattan project btw - other countries were way ahead at the time but the war effort slowed them down  And dont even think of claiming the space projects - captured German tech is all  Ah i got a bite anyway haha |

| True.... we were very behind at the start of World War II. We had something called the Great Depression that we were dealing with. Our efforts were on fixing our own problems first.
Whatever technical term you want to use, selling, lending, leasing... it was all part of the same Act.
And yes, we developed the Manhattan Project out of fear the Germans were going to build the first atomic bomb. But I guess we got to it first... and the rest is history. |
