Dictionary.com says “bushwhack” is basically synonymous with ambush and
querrilla warfare. A bushwhacker, aside from being a general term for an
ambusher, also refers to “a Confederate guerrilla during the American Civil
War”. So I dunno why you layed the smack on me. As a Canadian however, I will
politely just nod, smile, and apologize. :-)
For the record though, I’m not anti-American, nor would I ever malign your
president. I’m quite conservative myself, and hate all the cheap swipes that
often get tossed around by certain people, ahem... from Canada.

Although I’ve
never been completely comfortable with the whole mech on rollerskates thing,
I can say without hesitation that this thing is off the chain. The turret and
rocket launchers are two of the coolest things you’ve built to date.

Thanks Keith! I’m really glad the missile launchers are being received so well.
I feel it’s been a while since I’ve contributed any good ideas to the community.
