How about reading "Phony Cocksucking Spammers Posing as Actual Forum Members" -- chronicles the history of fraudulent fuckfaces from the early 90s to the present.

Now that sitting out reading a book is not long a battle with the bugs ... and if a sista wants to be seen toting around a really thick book for then whence .....
"The History Nobody told you about: In Defense of Nature" .... Turns out it is a polemic that "nature" is really any/all of the "gods" ... and humans take to war when there are too many of them ... and if they don't, "nature" takes 'em out with a natural disaster .... ! Kapow!!! And the wilderness returns ....
Despite redundency and odd organization, if the science behind his thesis has any authenticity, it may be an interesting resource, especially if I add it to a Kindle so I can cut and past into a orderly simplification, it may be worth the price of buying another version ..... hmmmm ....
In short, you either need the historical data in the book, or it is futurology ... perhaps it is a good excuse for buying a kindle .... plain or keyboard, I haven't decided yet ....

Kindle is free on your keyboard, as is the Nook.
Just go to the Amazon or Barnes & Noble and download.
I use both apps...very user-friendly.

Oops, yeah, I have both on this laptop ... I think I'll d/l the kindle version ... The books contains known natural disasters along with dates of wars, etc ... as well as dates when humanity made huge migrations from one place to another ... the current immigration wave from Mexico is predictable ....

Most such, you can click to request it be put on Kindle .... the b/w pictures in the book are useless, so maybe their work to do to put all elements into best form. I really can't justify typing in all the data to make it searchable ... but, maybe I can stumble across someone who would enjoy doing it .... i can hope !!!
