No matter the setting you use, your first -- nay, only -- priority is to create instances of fun and excitement for you and your players. The lofty gods of setting purity will never curse you if you cross the streams, and you can ignore all the annoying demagogues on the internet who will.

Yes, I pay for it. I mostly use it to save PDFs from the internet for later reading, and for pulling notes out of my Moleskine -- it can even recognize my handwriting! Anyone else have any tips for using it? I'm currently using Notebooks like I should probably use tags...

Things like that show that if you are going to live out in the country, you need to be ready to fend for yourself if need be. You can not rely on government services to always be there for you.
It seems like a lot of this country's political differences can be explained via this simple observation.
Another extremely insightful post on this article.

According to a historian that I saw on the daily show (can't remember the name), before any society has transformed to totalitarian rule it passes through a period of informal intimidation where groups loosely connected to the government intimidate the populace into going along. Historically, this has never succeeded in a society that had ready access to weapons.
This is an interesting comment; has anyone seen this episode?
