Are people really clueless?
I think some are clueless and then some are WILLFULLY IGNORANT, which is another category altogether. It's as though Satan has put a veil over their eyes and they become enraged if you even speak a word about what is happening in this country.

Our Mission is Finally Accomplished Anyone Care?
Barely anyone cares because there has been nothing particularly interesting about the USA's withdrawal from Iraq. They're leaving behind an unstable, violence ridden country with a government dominated by Shi'a fundamentalists allied to Iran, as most informed commentators were predicting would happen by 2005-ish.

Right-Wing Hatemongering Fueled by Christianity?
If "good" religious folks dont become proactive and take back their religion from the fundies, then it will eventually implode and go away. As an atheist, either option works for me and will be good for everyone.

Would you be willing to undergo random strip searches at airports if it guaranteed air travel would be safer?
I would undergo random strip searches provided it guarantees that both abuse and make flying safer occurs. Otherwise, I'll be seriously concerned about it specially depending on which country these searches will be conducted.

How Long are You willing to Travel?
I went with as long as it takes, but personally I dont want to be doing another 1hr long run to places like I did in EQ, always seemed when I needed to travel I couldnt find a druid or wizard to port me lol. I would say that 20 - 25 mins is good for long travel, tho I really cant see it taking that long in SGW, I figure it will probably be around the 10 min mark.
Thing for me is if I get invited to a group if I have limited time I let them know right away, then again if I have limited time I am normally soloing and not really looking for a group. The way I look at it, its up to the person joining the group to inform them if there is a time constraint, not up to the group leader to ask if there is one.
Tho I am very picky bout the groups I join, and do prefer to be in one where I know most of the people in it. That way we all know how to cover for each other, and makes the group that much stronger. Once I get into the mid lvls I no longer look for pick up groups unless it is late at night, I stick with the people I work best with. And for those people I will wait as long as it takes to get the group together, mainly because in the end I know I will have a strong group.
