I know North Korea has unstable leaders and a nuclear program, but it was always hard to take Kim seriously after "Team America, World Police." As for how far North Korea has to go, check out this amazing satellite photo showing North Korea's (lack of) nighttime lights compared to its neighbors. This article, 10 facts that divide North Korea from the world is pretty remarkable too. -------------------- "Okay, if you're going to question the importance of an actor's signature on a plastic helmet from a movie based on a comic book, then all of our lives have no meaning." ~ The Big Bang Theory

Supposedly there are a lot of starving people in NK and we had an agreement almost signed to take food in if they backed off their nuke program. How about they stop trying to make nukes and feed their own people? Hopefully we can help the people and not enable the dictatorship further. -------------------- �Bones is heading into its 7th year & there comes a point where you put up or shut up...You can�t extend that tension that long without your fans breaking." ~ Castle's creator

Which is pretty astounding, considering that by population they're around 50th at approx. 24 million -- and the other top five have over a billion (China and India), 300 million (U.S.), and 125 million (Russia). No wonder their people are suffering so much. -------------------- "Okay, if you're going to question the importance of an actor's signature on a plastic helmet from a movie based on a comic book, then all of our lives have no meaning." ~ The Big Bang Theory

I keep thinking of M*A*S*H. More than two generations later, nothing has changed in North Korea.

Right? Sigh.
