    Well, the U.S. already claims that its actions are to promote freedom and democracy. Maybe it could become true (or true-er), without the need for so much oil.

    Right. In that case, choose a wiki that has WYSIWYG editing. I also recommend choosing one that can export the page to various formats. Two possibilities are MediaWiki and Trac. You may find others in the list on this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

    Adoption of XBox Ones was rather slow, with the stupid mandatory Kinect feature, and the "must phone-home" feature which was later abandoned after negative feedback from the market. They kept the X360s going to keep their revenue-stream going.
