I saw something about how landmines are amongst the worst human inventions, due to how much damage and death they continue to cause to innocent people, decades after their intended use, and I have to agree. what else is up there? --- https://imgur.com/mApEnf3 ... Copied to Clipboard!

That is allegedly why we keep them. And considering they have only been used twice (very close together) in war I'd say it appears to be true. Weird thought occurred. Twice atleast America has changed how war is fought commonly in the world. First time not for the better iirc as we invented total warfare. --- Cid- "looks like that overgrown lobster just got served!" Bartz-"with cheese biscuts AND mashed potatoes!" ...
