When I was a boy, there was an abandoned stone quarry near my parents' house in New Jersey. I used to ride my bike over there all the time. I loved everything about being there: walking through it, climbing around it, exploring this chasm of gray stone walls and floors. The unity of the material that bound the space amazed me, and yet it never seemed the same any two times that I visited. Link

Star Citizen: The Drake Industries Carriers

Star Citizen    The Drake Kraken Light Carrier vs Drake Galleon Revenant Fleet Carrier  A Comparison... In the montage of early 2017 Kraken designs, there were 2-3 looking similar to the 2015 Drake Galleon Revenant Fleet Carrier.  The Kraken (260 x 104 x 64) is a bathtub toy by comparison to the Revenant Fleet Carrier (1000 x x ).  The Kraken normally has a complement of 8 aircraft of varying roles.  In a pinch, one can squeeze 20+ aircraft aboard.  Kraken also has a small complement of Dragonfly snub craft. The Revenant Fleet Carrier has multiple deployed fighter & bomber squadrons, as well as several support squadrons, 460 – 700 crew, embarked squadron personnel, and embarked troop complements, which is on par with the Bengal Carrier & the Man-O-War. Much rather have the Revenant.   Please note the Revenant true scale shown in the Big 3 photo below.

For individual survival - perhaps that is okay. Reawakened american black men - as a class of men - will not survive moving individually. I do not give a crap about getting "credit". Hell give the credit to the Godfather, Kevin Samuels; or to MLK or Malcolm. Time to get SERIOUS black men. Our very survival is at stake! However, if the concern is the Survival of 'good Black Men', if the concern is the survival of awakened, aware, formerly ignored black men in the US. Individual, uncoordinated, piecemeal movement is no guarantee of survival - let alone thriving. As SYSBM/PPBs gaining motion - moving with confidence - if this small group, and the survival of the "Best" of the american black man, is to move ahead. A plan is necessary. The Road Ahead for SYSBM/PPB bl
