History provides some good examples of military regimes and often some interesting insights as to how they kept law and order, in their words. Sometimes torture is mentioned as well. One could be such as in El Salvador during the time of the war in t... [Read More]

I was thinking "what happened in the 9 minutes you were infiltrating the enemy ship before you found the explosive device and got the h*ll out of there." It was a very short mission. :) All right, we're having a terminology problem. It is... [Read More]

I didn't think so. You've been writing and posting quite a bit here in the CEC so I just figured you were taking a break. I didn't have a problem with it. When before I was posting an average of ten pages every other day, I felt like I had slacked o... [Read More]

If this is a ‘choose your own’ story, there is no reason for it to lay fallow because the original author has let it sit. I am going to post a suggestion to it that maybe we have some ask another author to add to it, and rotate who is in the barr... [Read More]
