    For a second I thought there would be a youtube link. At home I would have clicked on it and waited for the sweet sound of being told how he was never gonna give me up... Curse you for failing to take advantage of my weakness!

    You kidding me, if I can get a contractor job with a couple of governments I don't need to take over the world. Look at Darth Cheney. He can shoot lightning at people from his throne made of dead soldiers bones and gold he's had shipped from Iraq. Assuming he has this throne, of course. (It's really cool and even has a pair of Tesla Coils to be extra scary.)

    Nice assumptions, you missed my bit about education which was the only bit I put forward as a solution. I do like to believe that if someone is actually educated they will make decent decisions. And given the number of humans who have decided fertility drugs are such a wonder that they can now get that full family of 7 in one pass, well, we need to educate these people about the issues that are involved. Not even to mention the impact on resource consumption.

    The original conversation ran prettyu much as you said, but I found it funnier when Randall said it later in the movie, when Veronica walked in with a lasange and he shouted it from behind the desk. A very funny movie, which I completely missed until it came out on DVD. CCC solved so far: 2 (including a Hard One!) 37!?!! - Randall, Clerks

    That reminds me. The Daily Mail (one of his favourite UK newspapers by appearances) published a centrefold saying that the vaccines were perfectly safe. So he's been debunked by one of his favourite sources :laugh: . OSDev :)

It isn't conservatives who were behind: . the French Revolution, the Terror, the Vendee, the Napoleonic Wars . the Russian Revolution, Lennin, Stalin . Naziism . Fascism . Maoism . Pol Pot . Castro Yes, a thoroughly unpleasant, and certainly bloody, collection. However, conservatives (the European Monarchies) were responsible for invading France. This gave rise to conscription - a contributing factor to the Vendée - and provided a launch pad for Napoleon's career. Their support for counter revolutionaries provided the 'rationale' for the Terror. Similar actions followed the Russian Revolution. Also, Fascism (and, by extension, Nazism) was supported by conservatives who saw it as a bulwark against the spread of Communism. This, combined with the war-weariness of Britain and France, contributed to the international inertia as Hitler continually violated the Treaty of Versailles.
