Hmm

If you're going to argue the toss over language, 'labeled' isn't a word, it would be 'labelled'

A title is required by UK law, and this applies worldwide

I agree that it seems our beloved fuehrer has overstepped the 'actively dangerous' point. I for one never agreed with the hate speech laws, they have an overbroad definition of hate speech (i.e, as others have pointed out, that which the Authoritah! does not agree with. If mrs Clinton helps him, good, it's more brownie points for her. If he wins, good, it WAS defamation.

And no, I can't stand his views, I disagree with almost every one of them. Being nice to him will just make him angrier

Nitrogen's explosive?

Hmm, first anyone's told me about this. I was taught it was fairly unreactive at room temperature. I wish the laws of nature would quit changing! <grin>

WHY would anyone use the powerline for communications?

I have precisely NO sympathy with the people who are saying 'I don't want to be arsed to run CAT5.'.. Then you can't be arsed to have a service, bye bye now, failures.

We have laws that make it illegal to sell a pointy object to anyone under 18.. so I take it kids these days don't dabble in electronics anymore?

At least it's got people talking

I know it's stating the obvious, but at least people are discussing why this can't be done, and what CAN be done instead, the space probe idea was great. (For the HHG readers out there, there isn't enough room on the 2 shuttles for all the useless members of society, we should just ship them to the new artificial island in the mid Atlantic. Yes, I know. Shhhh)

The IWF are a bunch of loonies

Keep it up, it'll encourage the use of vpn and other forms of tunnelling.

Paris: Because she knows all about tunnelling
