So Calvin, are you gonna gt to mod this forum?
I'd hope not, I think Janus Marius would be a more fitting mod, he seems to have a very large knowledge when it comes to history.

I have some gaps here and there, but I'm two years into college, going to become a high school-college level history professor. However, with my infamous history here at KMC, I'd be very surprised if I was asked to mod here.

Yes, you did. I was very impressed; you didn't strike me as a history buff. However, if you were to become a mod, you'd have to really go about this place a different way. Mods don't exactly get the luxury of doing things like unleashing on Bloigen, even if he was insulting the forum. You have to keep your nose clean once you've got responsibility. But I can't fault you for your knowledge so far. (Except Stalin was a dictator... ha!)

Well, I was thinking totalitarian, which he wasn't. He was a commie, not a..err...Tottie? Bloigen likes to troll though, and say dumb things but I guess you're right.

Meh, there will always be detractors. Just ignore them and they'll go away.
And while the Soviet Union was initially a Communist regime, during Stalin's reign it was totalitarian.

That's the best way to do it. Just make thread, and ask questions. And the rest of us can pool in some knowledge. Forum in the purest sense.

Knight's Cross. It's a large grey book, entirely on him and his life, etc. You can find it at any reputable book store.
