Foreign airlines are threatened with a flight and landing ban from 2012 in the European Union if they do not participate in emissions trading.[^] Its about time someone actually implemented law based on AGW theory, it will accelerate its demise.

Author of the Guardians Saga (Sci-Fi/Fantasy novels)I prefer the 'tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow...' sililoquy myself: To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury Signifying nothing. Whoever wrote that was a genius!

I don't think the "To be or not to be" bit is actually supposed to be a soliloquy.

How do you know so much stuff? :) Anyway, heres an interesting link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To_be,_or_not_to_be[^] It has the first folio text too, and its very different to that which we have today; which fuels the debate: Did Shakespere actually write what we knw today as Shakespere? (Hmm, not bad, managed to get a semi colon and a full colon into the same sentence! :) )

Meh, I don't know that much. Every day I find out a little bit more about how ignorant I am.

I think he did. There are very reasonable responses to all of the supposed problems with his life story.

Aparently they were compiled after his death, from memory, but two actors. So its quite probable that huge chunks have gone missing, been changed, worded differently and so on. As it is there are at least three of his plays that never made it into text.

But it didn't work. The guy just jumped around like an idiot, screaming in pain, and then died.

It was reported by Fox News. (Disclaimer: Yes, I know what the speech really means... This is supposed to be a joke... Laugh, you fools!)

Yeah, quite possibly.

They would haver to be at the very least admirers. Aparently they went around asking actors who had been in his plays to recall what the could, and assembled what they ended up with. Did you look at the wiki link I sent you? What is odd is how the text changed so much from his first folio; It seems Shakespere has been undergoing a constant process of change.

Yeah, it IS really different, huh. I like the modern version better, I think.

Yeah, now whats interesting is that the older version is more like modern English. So, all this talk of 'how people spoke in Shakesperes time' is based on what is probably the affectation of whoever changed the text from its original to what we have today. ie, Shakespere never DID write in that way, and HIS English was not so different from ours (which bourne out by Caxton), and that what we think of Shakespere poetic style originated much later, and from someone else.
