RE: [eia] introduction

["James Helle" <jhelle@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi William.  My name is Jim Helle (aka Great Britain).  I'm 37, married with
two boys (7 and 10), and have been playing RPGs and war games off and on
since I was about 14.  I live in Newark, Ohio (about 30 miles east of
Columbus) and have known both J.J. and Kyle for about six years.  I decided
college wasn't for me and joined the U.S. Army directly after graduation.  I
am currently employed as a professional driver for J.B. Hunt Transport.

Regarding the current game, my vote is to start over.  I say this despite my
fear that others will think I'm just bailing on a desperate situation.  This
isn't the case.  Austria made no attempts to engage in any diplomacy in the
beginning of our current game.  This wasn't a strategic decision, he just
didn't know what to do and therefore did nothing.
