I guess you didn't read what I wrote before you snipped Aaron. Gee that
annoys me when people do that. I was comparing the GW ages to that of our
ages. I was proving that it could not be the age of Chaos, and still have
Chaos as a major player in galactic issues. I stated that we are in the
Information Age, but there are still countries that have barely reached
Industrialized Status, which was what made the Industrial Age.
