For God's sake. Ignore Nighthawk. He does exactly the same thing on the SteamPowered forums. He has a real penchant for overgeneralisation, he is an occasional hypocrite, he boasts about his place of education, then uses less-than-perfect English, and he refuses to see any positive aspects of governments or political parties he doesn't like, namely the Republicans and Tories. I would consider myself in the middle - I think I have some right-wing opinions, and some left-wing - but Nighthawk has, on occasion, behaved almost badly as the extreme right-wingers, who preach all the bull about America's superiority. His favourite topic is how America is responsible for most of the world's problems. Unless he starts to conduct himself in a politically friendly (that is, 'neutral') manner, I strongly recommend that you ignore him when he waxes lyrical about all of that.
On the subject of the original thread, good find! Windows always throws up surprises, good and bad!
