Not agreed: There were several "moves" from Japan, Italy and Germany before. However, escalation to WW conflict only started when Hitler invaded Poland.
But let us not hijack this topic...

errr, sounds like you're the one with the misconception. I believe you're referring to the Sino-Japanese war, which predated and outlasted World War II (officially).

I'm an attorney ( http://www.texasbarrister.com ). Also a producer for 15+ years, done everything but country; currently working on album #11, which leans a bit prog-ish. Also a web developer and marketing guy for about 8 years. And a lover-not-a-fighter for almost 20 years, having lost my virginity freshman year in college.

Ok, so it didnt actually start ww2, but was key in making it a world war, once it merged into and became part of ww2 after pearl habour.

I should have worded it differently sorry! :oops:

American

New Yorker by way of New Mexico

In the 90's I was a bassist in an indie rock band, toured, etc.

Moved to NYC in 2000, saw the bubble burst, then the towers fall, and ended up working in an Emergency Room registration job for two years just to keep afloat. Had a crazy band in NYC during this time. Made some short films. Blogged. Flogged. Had a blast, dispite the struggle.

Started in pro audio sales in 2003. One year at GC. Then two years in pro audio sales at B&H. Recently promoted to Content Writing & Media Creation position at B&H. Writing in the Pro Audio Catalog, newsletters, e-magazine. Doing presentations & graphics & multi-media stuff. I love it!

Audio-wise I'm doing a bunch of stuff. Always playing guitar and writing songs slowly. I have my electronic compositions that I fiddle with. I do some soundtrack stuff for little video projects. I do some podcasting for fun and some tech stuff professionally. I help out with theatre sound projects. Sometimes I play in bands for short stints with either a bass or Live or both. I like to DJ with Live for my girlfirend when she makes pancakes.

The thing I love so much about Live is that it follows along with me in any of the varied sorts of projects I get involved in. It's like this little friend in my backpack that's always ready for work or play. Sounds goofy but it's true.
