The wolves are running;)

Its not that funny

was it a bomb?

Thats a fine speech, I just read it all. What struck me though, was that its almost thirty years old. People have been born and grown old during that time. The old men who heard that speech the first time are dead and buried now. The people who are dying in conflicts in the middle east now weren't even alive when that speech was given. Whilst its still relevant today, the world has changed in countless ways, but Israel is still a stick in the mud.

I've seen photographic evidence of the existance of Palestinians

I'm very sceptical of this. I work in the hi-fi industry designing and testing loudspeakers. When you design a drive unit, speakery thing, you kind of spec what the frequency range is, for domestic hi-fi you're loudspeakers go from about 50Hz to 15KHz, for top of the range hi-fi systems it goes from maybe 10Hz to 25Khz and thats expensice and uses several drive units for each part of the range. Now mobile phone speakers aren't hi-fi, the're not designed for pitch accurate reproduction of music, on the whole mobile phone speakers are crap and just squawk compared to hi-fi speakers. You know when you're on a bus and someone's mobile phone starts ringing, and they have I dunno, a Coldplay ringtone, you've not going to be fooled that you at a Coldplay concert, its an annoying squawk that sounds like Coldplay. Human hearing for single frequency tones goes up to about 17KHz, this decreases as you get older in your twenties, to around 13KHz. So for this device to work, your standard mobile phone loudspeaker needs to reach around 15KHz. I don't believe it.

Can you provide a link to some evidence of this?

Classic:laugh3:

Crikey, you Americans do seem to be a bunch of fascists. You guys used to be cool, what went wrong? Here, a friend wrote this song about America, its called America

Are sex crimes committed by American citizens okay then?

our knowledge of the universe and developments in optical thingi's have improved so we can look at things in a different light so to speak and re-evaluate out opinions on things. Crikey, imagine what would happen if Pluto was called Mickey, damned emotional attachments

Are sex offences okay if they're not carried out by illegal immigrants?

But if Pluto's a planet then, then so's Ceres, Charon and Xena

Gosh, you've convinced me now

I didn't say Christianity was a cult, just that your Bush aligns himself with one of the weird-ass cults within Christianity, Not all Christians are the same. Secondly, the USA's track record for using nukes doesn't really hold true for being a last hope weapon. Now the Iranians could also claim that they want the nuclear weapons as a last hope deterent kind of thing too. Oh and America's track record for starting wars recently is pretty good, and supporting other nations invading their neighbours, etc. But lets not get into that right now. We've done it to death. Actually I heard on the radio this morning that they're in talks with the UN about stopping their nuclear program or something, but they do keep insisting that its just for power generation, and I'll take them at face value thanks.

Doesn't your president of USA believe in some Christian cult where some kind of rapture event takes place... blah blah blah... world war destroying Israel etc? How do we stop the USA from having nukes?

crikey, thats a really long post

Terrorism isn't huge now, what are you talking about?

If that isn't freedom, then what is it? and what would freedom look like?

There is no mastermind, there is no conspiracy, its all just incompetance and chance

Two seperate issues Firstly, in order for death from plane crashes to be as be a threat to the UK as car accidents, you'd need a 9/11-type event every month. Car death in the UK per year on average = 50,000 (approx) plane deaths in the UK per year on average = 200 (approx) The terrorist threat has been blown out of all proportion and having 'Thread levels' does nothing to promote anti-terrorism. I'm not suggesting the police and secret services give up, just that maybe if they stopped trying to scare everyone. and leaving little notes is kind of funny, like when I use glow in the dark paint to write on your bedroom ceiling "I can see you"
