  1. It would have made no difference. There is no known medical cure for stupidity.
  2. Is that the best response that you can come up with?
  3. It also does not mean that it did occur, either. Unless you have proof that it did occur, then it did not.
  4. Nothing to worry about. The RTN will sweep the seas clean with their 1 submarine, (if they ever get an engine for it).
  5. I have to admit that I am confused. It seem to be all about a secret deal. A deal. so secret that "everybody" knows about it, and has done for years. If it is secret, how come "everybody" knows about it. quote from the OP "after dissolution of the Move Forward, said the partisan source who only spoke on condition of anonymity." "The unidentified powers-that-be" It sounds like the rumour mill is running flat out with nothing in the way of proof, except perhaps the anonymous partisan source, and possibly the unidentified powers-that-be.
  6. Thank you for at least trying to help the lady, As you can see by some of the responses to your posts, many posters here are too wrapped up in themselves, to care about anyone else. Some posters have made sensible suggestions. At least one other poster is simply to stupid to be allowed out on his own.
  7. Nothing like a good bit of paranoia at lunchtime. Why would you NEED all that security in the first place.
  8. Thank you to you and all your hardworking team, for a hard job well done.
  9. IMHO Emperor Hirohito was not completely insane at all, but completely under the power of the military and the government who controlled ALL access to the Emperor. He was a figurehead with all the trappings of authority but no actual power or control.
  10. Save our Scampton for what? If some group wants to save ex RAF Scampton, then all they have to do, is buy the place from the MoD (at a discount and then the problem (and the cost) will be solved and belong to the new owners. I doubt if the new owners will allow the immigrant housing plan to go ahead, which solves that problem, it saves the cost of running and keeping Scampton open, and there are oyhr ex RAF bases that can be used.
  11. I think he can just manage picture books, but not if they have writing as well.
  12. Assuming that a POTY is even needed, and what qualifications would be required of both the posts and the poster. How many candidates should be required, should a ballot be carried out of all available members, should the votes be secret or open to everyone? Going by this years self appointed choice, anybody could say the they actually are the POTY. However IIRC from the original you could not propose yourself for the position.
  13. I will be fine. I am nearly 2 multi meters in height and I can resist almost anything.
  14. Perhaps they needed Allessandro Volta (b 1745, d 1827) to shock him into life.
  15. You can give me as long as you like, but it still won't change the post.
  16. Just another very sad, big, bad, bold keyboard warrior.
  17. It is very difficult to hear people when your head and ears are buried in the sand.
  18. quote "Every time they are dissolved and return under a different guise, it weakens them and sets them back" IMO Every time they are dissolved and return under a different guise, they come back stronger than before, and makes them stronger and pushes them forward. "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet"
  19. Try reading the Bangkok Post where the airline is named. You could have looked at the post after yours, or even done a search on the internet. He wasn't barred because he was disabled, but because NONE of the 4 people (friends?) travelling with him would take the responsibility for him, IF an emergency did actually happen. I think that I would chose my friends and/or my travelling companions, more carefully.
  20. I don't know, but there is your post.
  21. And you called me a bigot.
  22. I do so enjoy it when posters claim I said things that I did not. You are veering off topic as usual which is "US delegation leaves Saudi Arabia early over kippah row" So where did the Muslim woman in the west come from, and what has that got to do with the topic? Now according to you I am a bigot, simply because I ask questions. If you have no answer, then say so, and try not to insult the poster. This is supposed to be a discussion forum where everybody is entitled to their opinion. You don't seem to agree with that. BTW going back to the topic, how much religious tolerance did the Jewish person show to his Saudi hosts?
  23. Why do you seem to believe that Jews are more important than any other people in the world, and that they should be given special treatment?
  24. You can call it what you like. In reality it is common sense. That is the problem with ALL religions. I know my rights and I will stick it out to the bitter end and this is the result. The trip was wasted by the religious INTOLERANCE of one person. If you cannot see that, there is no hope for you.
