Question is: can they BOTH trace back to the Caesers?
Like I said, maybe Rome never really went anywhere.

Now ask your self this, how many common americans know that britney is getting married? or that jlo is a tramp with 0912091 ex husbands? How many americans know more about jlo and afflecks relationship then they did?

Get my point?

Peter Agre Nobel Prize in Chemistry last year
Kurt Wuthrich in Chemistry in 2002
Arvid Carlsson, Paul Greengard, and Eric Kandel got the prize for some of their findings in signal transduction in the nervous system (very interesting)

Presidents: the first four
George Washington
John Adams
Thomas Jefferson
James Madison

Countries: I will name the ones currently found around Iraq since they are of importance at this time
Iran
Turkey
Syria
Jordan
Kuwait
Saudi Arabia

I actually didn't know that Britney Spears was or is married nor do I know anything about Jennifer Lopez. Those people don't interest me. I'd prefer to pay attention to the people that are actually making a difference... ie. have some intelligence.

really? last I checked we like to keep our troups around ad nauseum
