05/03/2001 Archived Entry: "World War Two"

I've been asked by a few people now, 'Exactly what were you doing up so late at night then?' in reference to a post I made the other day. Well, I'd just received an instant message from a friend who told me that a girl he knew in Canada urgently needed a bit of tuition on World War 2 for a test she was taking the next day. Being an agreeable sort of guy, I joined an IRC chat room with a couple of other people and proceeded to help outline the events of World War 2 and provide some of the reasoning for what happened during that time.

It was actually quite an interesting experience and I learned a bit myself; after all, the last time I'd done any proper history was for GCSE history (but I did get an A*). It's still quite surprising though, how much the brain remembers after so long.

Anyway - there you go, that's why I was up so late.
