Heh heh. http://www.theonion.com/onion3908/wh...tory_year.html

WASHINGTON, DC?With Black History Month over, U.S. citizens are putting aside thoughts of Harriet Tubman and George Washington Carver to resume the traditional observation of White History Year...

Scholars say there is a remarkable wealth of documented white history to explore.

"There's so much more white history out there than you might imagine," said Dr. James Corman, a Princeton University history professor. "America's publishing houses, newspapers, movie studios, magazines, and radio stations have kept remarkably thorough records of white Americans' accomplishments."

Gotta love The Onion. Funniest. People. Alive.

Schools nationwide will shelve African-American history pamphlets in favor of such Caucasiacentric materials as the Macmillan & Rowe American History Textbook New Revised Standard Edition and Encyclopedia Britannica.
Classic.

Hmm. Would this count as an invocation of Godwin's Law or not?
You are in Soviet Russia. It is dark. Grue is likely to be eaten by YOU!

Not necessarally....

Godwin's law would be more like:

Will Mac OS X support pre G3 computers:
- Yes
- No
- Hitler would not want support for pre G3's. You Nazi!
