I live in Bristol in the UK which is considered the home of concorde at the airport called Filton.
There is nothing better than watching concorde coming home on those special occasions when it is taken off normal flying patterns, they close the road and it flies right over your head, amazing.
The only thing that comes close is being sat in my garden watching filton airport as the spitfire fly's around doing stunts that would put modern planes to shame..
This is the most amazing post that i have ever read on slashdot, being English myself, we sit down and watch the news, frankly amazed and the anti european diatribe, if you visited any one of the countries in the UN you will find its not you but the crazy warmongering manic who has his finger on the buttons of many weapons of mass destruction, bush.
I work sat opposite an American and we talked about this post, even he admits that when the US goes against a country you fail to seperate the countries politics with the individuals themselves. Sure, we all have stereotypical attitudes to countries (usually quite funny) but that is no way the same as hating them.
If i was a moderator today this would be right up there.

If they carry exempted guns they will of course become the target for every drug dealer, pimp and criminal who require an un-teched gun, it only takes one tech gun to kill an officer and then more and more un-teched guns make it to the street.
So after years of american scientists pretending that global warming does not exist now they have finally admitted it does they are now saying that it is a good thing cos now we can pollute even more water with both sound and chemicals from frieghter shipping.
that restores your faith in the american justice system, that fact a man can be physically assaulted in injured while excerising his right to free speech, i feel thats just another valid point in the american two faced justice attitude. You cant defend your so called 'freedoms' then laugh when it suits you
Sorry, thats just the way it comes accross, i am in no way anti-american just anti-stupid
