    I also will be pleasantly surprised if AOE4's online multi is anywhere close to AOE2's scene. Definitely managing my expectations due to what I've seen graphically regarding the mi…

    It appears they know that; might just want to understand the scope of the data Matt provided and/or how in-depth the Automattic analytics are on self-hosted sites--which is somethi…

    I agree, I mixed up BoA with Goldman. Instead should have mentioned his investment in Goldman--not BoA--during the financial crisis, which he did counting on the bailout that was p…

    Your comment intrigued me, so I looked it up--I found it pretty interesting, so thanks for the inspiration. Looks like one of the main factors is due to the soil acidity being simi…
