Should we give what we can of ourselves only to those who deserve it? How can we judge? Please note that death is not the only way to lay down our lives-- sevice and generosity count too!

Have you ever experienced when you know what to write next, but you just don't know how to write it, how to express it in words let's say? Because I have that right now, and I don't know why. Is this writer's block? And do you have any advice about how to get over it?

Thanks, and Merry Christmas! :)

The suggestion would have to be practical in 1778, politically feasible, and specific enough to accomplish the goal.

As examples, the Electoral College was a necessity because of communication problems, most folk knew that slavery was awful but it was not politically feasible to fix it, and the two party system was something they opposed but did not realize that their rules of winner take all made it inevitable.

What I am asking is what might have been their biggest mistake, and how might they have fixed it had they known. Extra points for more than one thing but it must fit the feasibility and both the mistake and solution criteria.

The irony is that we will be blind inspite of being able to see through everything very clearly.

Which day of the year has the least amount of births? It probably varies from year to year, but there must be some kind of a trend. February 29th would probably be the answer (because it only comes once every four years) but dont count in that day, please.
Thank you

The British Empire was the largest empire by GDP, landmass, and population the world has ever seen. It also had one of the strongest navies the world has ever seen. By 1913 it held 458 million people (one fourth of the world's pop), and 14.2 square miles of land (one fourth of the land on Earth). I believe that Gandhi had a role in liberating India, inturn dissolving the British East India company (the main revenue source for the empire), King George III also dealt the empire a blow when he lost the thirteen colonies. Major fires in London hurted the economy. The two World Wars drained Great Britain. And the sheer distance the empire's land was spreaded out made it easy for foreign power attacks and revolutions to start in one certain area. What do you think happened to the British Empire that forced it into a small island country today known as the U.K?
