I'd just like to play a little game.  I think us computer types are pretty
good at playing games.  Let's use our imagination.

I live in a well known southern city in a rather rural state.  Although our
governor has rather strange views of education, he doesn't seem to be a
communist sympathizer in any way.  But for fun, let's suppose he is. Also,
we'll assume that he's tremendously popular with us georgians.  Not that
we lean communist you understand, but he's a good guy and keeps food on our
table.

Now come the wierdos!  A bunch of nice friendly cuban construction workers
with popguns on the end of their shovels are building a little airport.
The popguns are for weekend parties because we don't allow fireworks.
(Hartsfield - we're very high up in the air here, 1057', so it's a bit
larger than normal.)  Then these crazy soldiers from fort benning come 
racing up I-75, kill our great governor, take over our gold capitol and
impose a strict martial law over all of atlanta!!  Us poor students from
up north are a little worried but we're ok.  The citizens of georgia are
very worried!

The question is: should the US (who has a teeny army of only 600 soldiers)
ask the great carribean republic with their crack marines to come help us
out or should we solve our own problems here in georgia?

Remember, gone are the days of our revolution where we bravely hid behind
trees whilst the british marched in open fields waiting for us to come out.
