    Ok, here's a question about Asgard.
	Most cultures advance slowly towards mechanization.  Man's
civilization started out as nomad tribes and now look at all the
wonderful machines we have {:-)  But after looking at Asgard we
see that something is wrong.  They continue to fight with swords
and mystical hammers (effective hammers, but still just hammers.)
They haven't advanced in technology.  They are basically back in the
Middle Ages and it would seen that their culture is stagnant.  Doesn't
this strike you as odd?
