I've begun a new blog for Forbes Magazine called - surprise! "War Games". But the first post is closer to home. A businessman in my town has commissioned a mural calling for Tibetan independence, and the Chinese government is asking the city government to make the owner take it down. http://www.forbes.com/sites/michaelpeck/2012/09/12/china-tells-oregon-town-take-down-that-tibet-mural/

Ya know, the Chinese Consulate might be thinking "Well, it doesn't hurt to ask. The worst that they can do is say 'no', and then we could tell Bejing that we tried."
Hopefully, the painter of the mural doesn't go missing.....
Ouch! Yeah, or suddenly have an accident.
I look forward to more game-focused articles. the board you tried to start at consimworld never seemed to take off, even though there are a lot of 'serious' wargamers over there they don't seem to want to talk about wargames and the 'real' military overlapping much.
