    Bloody Hell. I will tell you all once again the invisible thing that is bending light is a large group of gravity waves and if you look behind it you can't see the dark matter (but may stub your crotch on it)

    And just how is a blind person meant to fill out a form online. They will need to print it out and then... oh wait. I propose a law for all website forms to be in braille using that new lumpy technology some dipshit patented recently.

    Isn't the web a visual medium and not suited to the blind? What is going to happen to audio files for the deaf? What about big words for those without education? This is a very precarious and slippery slope. Once you bend over backwards for one minority you have set a precedent. Don't think that this won't be used to help destroy the net as we know it today. It wont be too long before your blog won't be allowed until it has been thoroughly scanned by software to determine its PC friendliness. Your birdwatching blog wont be allowed as it isn't available to the blind or maybe your heavy metal appreciation blog either as it isn't deaf friendly. If you haven't worked out that Net ?Neutrality isn't what you should be worried about then you aren't paying attention. It's the PC police you need to worry about.

    That's an easy question to answer. If you are an AC then c6gunner can't send your details to his megaphony pals.
    What's the latest figures on holocaust survivors again? Isn't it over a million in Israel alone? Must be very hard for Jewish people to get life insurance as that little nugget throws the actuarial tables right out the window.
    Now might be a good time to point out to your Christian Zionist friends where the Talmud says Jesus is right now? Sorry, I shouldn't have said Jesus. What's the Jewish name for him and what's it mean again? Enlighten us with your love.

  15. Re:Democrats loved the Pentagon Papers on Compiling the WikiLeaks Fallout · · Score: 1

    When Julian was a big bad hacker his handle was 'Mendax' possible derived from 'Splendide Mendax' or 'Untruthful for a noble purpose'. Seriously who the fsck would list hacker on their resume? I would love to be thought of as a Hacker by those who's opinions count(I'm not of course) but to actually call myself a Hacker would be just a self aggrandising wank. What about his big 25 criminal charges hack job? Six charges dropped, a slap on the wrist, and a few years later he becomes the 'world's most dangerous man' - LOL. Nothing Wikileaks has released has actually hurt the US or Israel in their ongoing attempts to shape the world as they see fit. I have said it before and I will say it again. If you believe the crap being released by Wikileaks then you are a twit of very low standing in the twit world. Where was it he got his Doctorate again? I haven't added any links to the above data because I shouldn't have to in this matter. If you are pro-WL and don't know of any of the above you really don't deserve an opinion in the matter. Previous sentence was not directed at Clark09.

    I would guess they were hoping to cause enough damage that we would agree to their demands.

    It's disgusting that these terrorist bastards want to try and force us out of the 52nd and 53rd states of the UNion or to be treated fairly on the global stage. The sheer nerve of it.

    Duh. I'm a moron. I meant to quote

    Please note that there have been no failed terrorist attacks in the past 10 years.

    As there appear to be so few actual attempts let alone thwartings of them I would hazard that any thwarting would be front page news.

    On the other hand, at least some of the trillions we've spent are an inevitable part of defending ourselves in a world where there are always people trying to enslave you.

    You think they want to enslave you? Look in the mirror - you have enslaved yourselves.

    I keep this link on permanent standby as the last paragraph or two will usually leave those that claim education is fine speechless. Quite frankly, I don't envy you bringing a smart kid up in a world that rewards mediocrity more than merit.
    I might sound like a bit of a wanker here(big deal) but I was brought up and treated by all around me as a prodigy. The education system couldn't deal with me and my childhood was absolute misery mostly due to pointless(at least to me) expectations.
    Please try to remember that no matter how smart he may be he is still a kid and at times might rather throw a ball, swim in a lake, or do anything at all other than perform for others.
    I'm not trying to advise you on child-raising as I am sure you are quite capable and I sincerely hope you don't take this the wrong way.

    Even though I hate the US and most of its people I have to say that normal development being retarded appears to be a Western thing and not just in the USA. I will add another comment to this thread if I can think of even the slightest reason to blame it on the USA.
    I would love to conduct a survey of people over 40/50 to find out just how many can see this retardation in society growing and evolving. I have been of the opinion that younger people are getting dumber and dumber for many decades now. One of my mates thinks it's because as we age we become wiser but I don't agree. The stupidity is so off the chart that my questionable development of wisdom could in no way account for what I see.
