Hi Thoth.Umm actually Romans took the flame thrower from the Greeks. China had paper while Romans had to trade or use animal skins.

Cultures borrow stuff all the time, and the Romans borrowed just about everything from the Greeks.

Unless we're talking about intellectual property, then I guess it is stolen, because there is only sharing or stealing in intellectual property rights terms; Sharing is giving the property freely with permission. Stealing is taking without permission.

Ello everyone sorry for not being on much... school just started and I forgot about the site >.<

Sometimes people traded technologies too... though most of the time it always seemed to be *crush everyone and take their stuff* as the main motive...

I agree with you 100% there. I think Dragonball is one of those shows that needs to stay as a cartoon.
Hey we have the same musical dislikes! Let's be friends!
