re: not biased at all

see this is the reason that we need that button

also dose it seam strange that we have multiple pepol spouting EXACTLY the same argument

@andus

pepol complained that my spelling was rubbish so I used a spell checker and made sure all the words where correctly spelled weather they where the right words is a different matter entirety

and according to a friend who has worked in the nuclear building and demolishing industry for nearly 30 years breeder fast is the right term ...apparently

and

@AC

you are talking a load of un supportable stuff France has about 40 nuclear plants they work all the time and will not cost anything like £70 bazillion to decommission the in the usa a nuclear plant adds a little surcharge (about 1c) to the cost of it's power that is invested in a bond or the like and that completely covers the cost of demolishing I have facts to prove this somewhere but can not lay my hands on them atm and even if some of the bristsh ones might cost a lot it is cos most of them where in some shape or form test reactors and tests do sometimes go wrong and it is that that is costing mainly cos of the horrendous heath and safety required on a nuclear licensed site I worked on one as an IT tech and I will if you push me tell you some horror stories about the H&S paper work

of corse

it is not the ecomany to blame I think 8% fall it quite a good result compaired I think the demise of woolworths is probley going to cost them that much as list

swapable battry

looks a good idar you can have 2 and charge them in home and if you leave you car on the street and take the battry out no bugger can nick it it is the idal security system

my little points

1. the trail seames to me to be a it of a farce with the changing f the harges and the witnesses admiting they did not know what the site did ti seames silly

2. @pepol who go after the name "the pirate bay" I have a tool called hijack this it sounds like a hackng tool but it is a anti hacking tool on the bases of there name should they be procuated? simulay one of the bigest anoynces in my work in a program called xp anti virus 2009 should they be let of cos they called it ANIT virus?

3. I just bought a hd tv and a blu-ray player and I went to every shop in my town and could not find what I wanted in hi def at any price 5 mins on a torent site ( not TPB) and I got 48 hours of exactley the sort of hd programs I wanted to watch and instructions on how to make them play thrught my computer on my new tv or on my xbox360 on my new tv makes you think (3 mounth later I still have not used my blu-ray plaer)

@ pepol who take issue woith the name "the pirate bay"

"I rose by any other name would smell just as sweet"

do I need to pay to use that line or is it covered by fair use?

re:one seat

obviousley if you buy an electric car you are destend to live and die alone and friendless

and no boady should need

more than 1mb of ram

@Andrew Kelly

I never sugested you should get one of those over-large remote controlled cars I was just saying that coal/ecetric powered cars are not as bad as the rest of pepol here are making out

@kindaian

I relay hate to do this but in the intrest of fairness here goes

phorm DOSE NOT alter your pages in any way they just harvest the information flowing from you to your viewers for profiling information and pass that onto there partners

not so bad an idar

it is very simular to what I am paying maby a bit more expencive at the current exchange ratebut at least they are not promising what they can nmot deliver

sorry I forgot to add this tomy previous comment

reguarding concent /rape

I do not want to get into a situation where I get every one of my partners to sine a contract and sware infrount of a notry public that she consents to sex cos that realy kills the mood

2 things

"DARPA, the Pentagon techwar shop where they're not at home to Mister Practical; but where rooms are always kept prepared for Mister Unfeasible and his old chum Mister Cockup."

1. love that sentance

2. the standard wackiboffinry formal is that you need to fund 100 unfeasible projects to get one world changing invention

BBC

wail I agree with a lot of what has been said I thought I would just chip in in a bit of defence of the bbc

I quite like the idar of a tv channel that is not funded by ads for at least 2 reasons

1. I detest ads I really hate them and I hate how on sky and other tv stations 1/4 of the time is taken up with adverts this is espicley bad on sky where you are paying a subscription anyway

2. I like the idar that a non ad supported channel can aford to do more things witch would not find sponsors ad company's like known successful things so to get some more experimental things you need pepol with no ties to these pepol

3. with the licence fee comes the demand to be at least be responsibly independent

anti caplitests

maby they should get sir fred there he has done more to destroy capitalisms than any amount of hippies

@ sarah even though she is probley at the pub

"Last point - Michael, it's not about feminism, and feminism isn't - or shouldn't be - about being anti-men. Feminists who are anti-men shouldn't be allowed to call themselves feminists - equally, it would be nice if people realised that most women who would like to see women treated more fairly absolutely do not want that to be at the expense of men, much less to see men treated less fairly. Y'know?"

my point is that the whole of the accusation is "she was to drunk to rember" that is a woefley low burden of proof that seamed to be needed to get the case to court

as pepol have said there seams to be a shift to a "all men are bastards and it is mens fault the world is f*ked up" point of view and maby it is time it was corrected

sorry if that offends you did not mean it

RE:I seem to remember..

not so he has fixed it on several occasions it just never stays working very well (like the rest of the tardis)

@Peter Drummond

the point is a electric car (and I include h2 cars here) is

1. zero emission at point of use

2. potently zero emission

re:I think I speak for us all when I say

re:Re: @Sarah...

my name is mm1145 and I am planing a trip to Blackpool ....no wate that is my AA meatings

#3 in the list of phrases i can not beleve a polition said this year

"the benefits outweighed any illegality"

I will be holding a poll later on

hate to ruin your headline but

"The Police felt that the absence of any obligation to carry or produce identity cards would substantially remove the administrative savings and some of the other advantages that Identity Cards would offer."

dose not mean they wanted to to be compulsory it just means that if it is not compulsory then you can not clam all those wonderful cost savings

realy?

"getting downloaded movies into the ordinary living room is still a significant challenge"

with my purchases of a ordinary hd tv I now have 3 options for playing downloaded movies on it

1. computer into VGA port on back

my eee pc when plugged into the tv and pressed switch out put button displayed automatic at 1920x1080 and I can play any movies over it. the tv even has a simple seteo jack in for it

2. vire my xbox 360 inot a hi def port

3. vire a cheep (£50) xvid dvd player

both of there play xvid and some other vid formats state off the bat form memory sticks or cards or in the case of the xbox network drives

but maby you should say "getting downloaded movies witch are in a silly drm'ed format into the ordinary living room is still a significant challenge"

maby if it was part of a series

with a tv couch potato and other layabouts in the other ones? but on it's own it dose strike me as a bit odd

twice in the space of a mounth

this is the second time I have read something our elected representatives have said and thought "they can not be serious"

"“Does she agree that not only are images based on real children unacceptable, but so too are images that people use for these purposes that they have generated either from their own imagination..."

how can this person seriously believe what they are saying???

new rule

no laws named after victims or pepol there is a good reason a law needs to be made logicality for a good reason to manage a country of millions in the future a law made after a victim is about 1 person and in the past it is bound to be badly thought out with emotion and hindsight

how widley is this being published

cos it is interesting how a widely sweeping law like thins that could catch a lot of pepol is being slipped in with out much main stream media comment (apart form our dear el reg)

@Alan Fisher

"The clean energy technology is at least 40 years but it was never developed or taken seriously because of the oil company monopoly and the fact people never bothered to challenge this"

can I have some examples of this I can only assume you mean nuclear (no I can not spell it it is one of many words I can not spell) and there has been investment and development in this tech just not in British but France and others the current designs for reactors are a massive advancement on the old types and are in a death/KWh ratio much better than any coal/oil or renewable system that is out there
