@Steven knox

Thats an over simplification. Your numbers dosent take into account the terrain of a country just the total area/Population which isent a good if any indication of over population. look at a country like Japan which is mostly mountains that arent suited for anything but to look pretty. There you have a area/pop that would say there is still pleanty of room for more people but in reality there aren´t. The same goes for China. China has wast areas of mountains and desert not suitable to sustain human life.

Why China has 1.3 billion people is a question that is too complex for any forum nerd to answer by looking as wikipedia or alphawhatsitsname.

Somewhatlagging

The idiots that came up with this study is a bunch of fools and should get a sound beating

What the...?

OMG are scots so repressed that THAT can cause a fuss? Socts and the UK in general needs to grow up. Have all of your minds had a 10 year old stop build into it or what is going on over there?

@Yawn by Ian

so any item shown in public TV is free game to anyone in your oppinion? Books have no copyright as they are publicly avalible trough a libary? seems a bit silly dosent it show your art and we own it too? no... simply no.

Bravo

Good article. Far too often are users exposed to IT people with no sence of service or how to talk to non tech people. Hopefully articles like this will help IT staff to realise that to help them self they need to lear the ways of the normale people hehe

33 is harsh

Fighting crime isent about getting even its about crime prevention and rehibilitation.

Not knowing the details of the case its imposible to say what he deserves however 33 years does sound harsh.

Mothers, farthers, cops and so on have to keep one thing in mind. This isent about you or your child. Its not about making you or the victims feel good. Its not about revenge. Its about crime prevention and rehibilitation. Now i n this case the later is very hard to do as 33 years do more harm than good for his flawed psyche. but then again thats what most people here seem to want. To do harm to someone else. Nice...

Works something like this...

"* The police actually believe Smith "stood on an ash tray to get onto the stepped-design portion of the roof". No, we have no idea how that works, either."

The roof has a part that goes relative close to the ground. Apparently he used an outdoor ash tray (usualy a small concrete or metal object partialy filled with sand) which are usualy fairly high 50-75cm I would guess. Thus allowing him to get to the roof. A somewhat more plausible explanation than the helicopter one....

No expenced. No support

No wonder the game has basicly no support and does nothing to enforce its own rules. Would raise its expences and cut its profits.

But as always the masses loves the lower quality crap that the media tells them is great. Its BIG so it MUST be good.... like the plauge it too was great and sooo many people got into it....

Paris? cause she too proberbly loves World of warcraft Online yadayadaexpansionnameandsoforth

@It's worse than we thought...

AS a Dane i can say that we are entierrly trustworthy. Our V8 super rockets do not excist and they are not only just awiating and refuling nor waiting for the Danish flags to be painted on.... nope not at all.

*Flame for the not setting the world on that we never paln on doing next saturday at around teatime.*

I love Vista too.. well not excatly love but its ok

""Yep, I'm the one who does. I own macs, I work with linux and yet I prefer to use Vista. Stinks doesnt it?"

Please don't forget the word 'only' in that first sentence next time. And it doesn't stink, since you seem enough worried about it to post as Anonymous Coward."

He couldent put in "only" cause im the other guy that likes Vista. Got two comps one runs XP and the other VIsta. Both do there job. Neither is more unstable than the other. Vista is just fine.

I´m not sure why everyone hates it so much. I surdenly don´t reconise it to be HIGHLY UNSTABLE or RUIN MY COMPUTER.. nor has it slowed down my computer any.

@Guns vs. Ninja weapons

"Correct me if I'm wrong, but adjusting for population size difference, don't the US and UK have a fairly equal murder and violent crime rate?"

In the year 2001 the US had about 12000 gun related killings

The total for the EU was 600-700.

@Nuclear Power by AC

"(I believe farms in UK are still suffering the effects of Chernobyl)"

In that case you would be absolutly wrong. Even 10 meters from Chernobyl there were no effects to wildlife or plantlife. Its an ATOMIC AGE myth. In all 59 people died for effects likly caused by the Chernobyl incident compared to the expected death count of 4000-75000. All the deaths were amongst the first cleanup people at the site.

(Dead birdy cause i hope thats what will happen to ATOMIC AGE! Myths)

@ Hans

We here in Denmark have it much the same way thank you very much : o)
