A lot of his time was spent at WCAM in Comden. He even got to report, live, on the fire at the old Camden Catholic fire from the 18th floor of Camden City Hall, the WCAM studios.

War Games - Chris Strasser

Chris Strasser gave us an introduction to War Games:

Wargames (also called “conflict simulations”) range from the very abstract and simple, like Risk, through extremely complex, thoroughly researched simulations of specific battles, such as Gettysburg or the Battle of the Bulge.  

Because they have well-defined rules 



and use representations of the actual battlefield and units that fought,
wargames allow history buffs to play “what-if” with various historical and real-world situations.  


Unlike chess (but as in the real world), the results of one unit attacking another are subject to random results.  Thus, you can have Pickett’s charge succeeding.

Chris has been collecting and playing wargames since the 1970s.  He has a fairly extensive game collection and used several of them to explain the hobby to us.

What is Chiropractic & Good Health - January 5, 2017

Dr. Charles Carabasi explained to us what Chiropractic is and how it can affect our bodies and our health through relieving pressure on the nerves in our spinal cord as  they leave our brain.

He told us that a lot of our physical problems could be addressed by adjustments that relieve pressure on the nerves and nerve signals can travel more easily to / from the brain.

He also talked about diet and the impact of additives to the food we eat and how that effects  our bodies.
