No way José. If Ill Kim didn't have nukes (which is debatable) the world could still not invade.

North Korea has the fifth largest army on the planet, and the terrain is favourable to the defender. This isn't some Republican Guard exposed in the Iraqi desert, it's not some irregular bunch of Taliban wieners... The North Korean army is huge and scary, even without nukes.

But the main reasons that we (the West) can't invade North Korea are twofold:

1. Literally, MILLIONS of people in Seoul (pop 20 million) would die. North Korea has enough conventional artillery to drop three hundred thousand shells per hour, and sustain that rate of fire for a LONG time. To give you some perspective, North Korea could concentrate on one single city all the strategic bombing of all German, all French and all English cities in all of WWII.

2. China. Do you actually think that China would allow an allied push North on the Korean peninsula? Talk about a recipe for nuclear war!

well, that was a casual comment and certainly not the point I was making

he he - did you ever download the train one? that worked

actually I own Microtonic and I think leisuremuffin pointed out you can use that

might just do that - there's a kind of irony in the thought of sequencing an operator drum rack with the microtonic sequencer

hey how novel - we've hijacked a political OT with music talk!

although the one thing that shits me about the MT sequencer is the lack of velocity control - you only have accent or normal

I've had My First Step Sequencer for a while, it's cool but has an odd personality, which can be cool in itself, I dig the happy accidents, but...

I might have to pick up one of those little Edirol boxes just for the step sequencer, or drag out my old Roland JX-305.
