Which is a very subjective view point. As for whining, well, you are just plain wrong. This isnt a whining thread, its a discussion, and quite an interesting one. Ian has directed me towards some interesting research that I will take a good look at. So why do you use whining? Well, its obviously a weak insult. Which says more about you than about me. As for being a foot note in history, if I ever acchieved that much I would be surprised. Morality is indistinguishable from social proscription

Unless this function is used as an event handler, the catch is totally useless. Calling UI routines "far" from event handling routines is just poor programming. This VB code is perhaps a good example of how you wouldn't write reusable code. :) -- Kein Mitleid Für Die Mehrheit

Quite, calling people "morons" as you did is a sure way to make it personal. Your post ought to have been deleted imediately. Morality is indistinguishable from social proscription

:laugh: The tone of that whole article was a little odd. Kind of left me thinking it was sour grapes from some 60-year-old who had never once gotten laid. :-D L u n a t i c F r i n g e

Oh no, only on the clearly dangerous bits and not even that time, it really wasn't going to matter slowing down then, I was just listing what you should do if weather gets inclement. Speed wasn't the issue, obstructed vision and lack of observation was. Also: England.

One of the best moments of my life happened when I was 13-14. I was in the front yard working with my dad. Some punk-a** kid from school came along with his friends and said, "I would kick your a**, but your dad is here." My dad said, "Don't let that stop you." The wanker jumped the fence in the front yard. I royally kicked his a** in front of my dad and all of his friends. Thinking about that is bringing a smile to my face. -Sean ---- Fire Nuts

Did you catch the part where the kids were all playing with legos and the other kids that had barbarians and knights with toy axes, swords and such were not brought in, but the kid playing with the policeman toy was? I do so like that society wants you to listen to and repsect the police, but here the kid is told that cops are bad and invading Norse are fine.

I thought you had to be an angsty goth wannabe or an overweight gamer with a t-shirt that doesn't cover your navel living in your mom's basement to have a blog. Guess times change. Damn kids with their new fangled things like electricity and wheels!

Doubtful, over the past decade I've seen a number of article like this describing a similar situation. Pathetic and sad, but probably all too common.

Fortunately we arent a mocarchy so it dosnt mater what charlie boy thinks. The FoI people found them duity, but couldnt press charges because the crime hapened more than 6 months ago (they now want this rule changed). As for the second link, yes, I saw that, its just more proof that GW alarmism is a load of crap with no basis in reality. And once you take away the negatives of a warmer CO2 richer planet you are left with just the positives. Morality is indistinguishable from social proscription

Trying to plot politics on some sort of spectrum is illogical at best. Watch the Fall of the Republic (High Quality 2:24:19)[^] Sons Of Liberty - Free Album (They sound very much like Metallica, great lyrics too)[^]

right satire.... what is this strange new concept you speak of.... If I called your mom a cock-sucking whore. Then proclaimed myself a satirist you would take no offense right? Lighten up it was all in good fun... ;P
