If anyone is interested, the book "Salt", a history on the use of salt, is extremely interesting and informative. It's amazing how many of our modern foods were created just to include salt for preservation (cheese, corn beef, soy sauce, e

I'm surprised it's possible to libel Evony. I think their own ads do a sufficient job.

What's funny is that game consoles are usually subsidized by the makers, hoping to make their profit on the games. Not positive about PS3, but that's probably why they're getting such a cheap computer for this purpose.
