    This is what AFRICA will ALWAYS be known for

    SLAVERY
    AIDS
    EBOLA
    BRUTAL POVERTY
    MALARIA
    CHOLERA

    Anything else?

    It is an infectious continent.

    Will it ever become anything more?

    Common RayRay, don't play stupid. You know where I'm coming from.

    I do find it interesting the contrast in your post and mine. My post refers to all negatives, all caused or spread by the inhabitants of the continent. Your post references the positives of Africa, none of which can be attributed to the people that live there.

    What is it about the people over there?

    Mickey I appreciate your attempt to infuse a bit of sports into this thread.



    But in the future, I would appreciate it if you reference hockey players in one of my threads, please label them as such. I hate going to google because of SBR.

    Good luck today Mickey.

    AFRICA is NOT known for it's hockey players

    Few years back... Sammy told this lady that Charlize was a real African-American. Lady replied, "Oh no, you must mean Halle Berry."

    If you just swap the medical issues for Heart Disease, Obesity and Depression then you could be talking about the USA.

    The Pillars that western civilization are built upon are those of the Greeks.

    Who do you think taught the Greeks?

    Know your history, gents.
