A reason ... to do what I do

Vintage Wargaming has put out a most interesting article about Norman Bel Geddes.

Norman Bel Geddes
In the article I noted that Geddes is described as being more pacifistic in outlook and thought that by playing at war a real war would appear less appealing...

I certainly agree with this sentiment.

Futurama




His model building skills were put to the test in the 1939 worlds fair.

Quite a few wargamers tend to be pacificistic (not to say pacific) in outlook. H.G. Wells seems to have been one such.

Myself, although not precisely a conscientious objector - I can see reasons why one might pick up a gun - tend strongly towards the peaceable and of the spectrum...
Cheers,
