"We've been saying 'aluminium' for far too long."
Thats the way it should be, that way it follows the pattern with countless other elements....
helium, lithium, beryllium, sodium, magnesium, aluminium, potassium, calcium, scandium, titanium, vanadium, chromium,,gallium, germanium, selenium, rubidium, strontium, yttrium, zirconium, niobium, technetium, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, cadmium, indium, tellurium, caesium, barium, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, promethium, samarium, europium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, thulium, ytterbium, lutetium, hafnium, tantalum, rhenium, osmium, iridium, thallium, polonium, francium, radium, actinium, thorium, protactinium, uranium, neptunium, plutonium....
I shall not however go so far as to fight for molybdenium, lanthanium, platinium and tantalium:)
And don't get me started on sulphur vs sulfur. (Too late!) I'm not really that bothered by most US spellings, but even if you don't know which is right then "sulfur" still looks pants:)
BTW, the american (mis)-spelling of 'paedophiles' as 'pedophiles' means that it ends up translating as 'foot fetishists' rather than being a reference to children. However, 'fetus' rather than 'foetus' is the correct latin word.
You seem to imply that socialism is wrong, and that is to ignore some of its positives. However I'm not about to declare that capitalism is wrong, as it too have advantages. The answer, as it always is, is somewhere down the middle - enough capitalism to reward excellence and hard work. Enough socialism to stop explotation and poverty.
I think in Europe, people are a little more tolerant to others moving to their countries, and are aware of the fact that their country is not the only one in the world.
Don't forget that there is quite free movement for EU citizens moving within the EU. Not quite sure about working/residency but just for travelling you can pretty much come and go as you please.
Insightful? Modern U.S and Nazi Germany are worlds apart. Using force to stop the FBI taking away a PC is nothing like using force against the nazis, a group of people who wouldn't of had second thoughts against killing you. Also, the Nazi scenero was a internation event, not a national one. Hence politics works in a very different way. Hitler was voted into power by the people, they belived what he said. You could have given the german citizans all the guns in the world and he would still have come into power. Guns & force work best against those who also wish to use force against you. The nazis used force against minorities within germany [Jews, the handicapped, non-germans)
Personally, I don't think that wide gun ownership in any way is helping to preserve democracy in the U.S. As a brit I live in a country were most people have no guns and I don't live in fear that we are in any danger of turning into a dictatorship. Oh and I don't leave in fear of getting shot when I'm walking the dog.
You might not agree with the FBI actions but you do ultimately agree with the aims of the FBI - wipe out crime - The difference come in a) what counts as a crime (b) the methods that you can use to achive the aim. Lets say that he shot the FBI to protect his rights [I'll miss out the " " as not to be labelled a bedwetter] and keep his PC. He'd have either been arrested or shot. In all likeliness, public opinion would be turned against him. Instead let them take the PC. Let the FBI do crazy things. Turn public opinion against the FBI and get the rules changed.
Don't you see, its a pure energy being. Pickard and Data were right, they do exist. Run for your lives, the end is nigh!! Just don't, what ever you do go and shoot it with that there phaser of yours, it'll only go and get stronger....oh and that lightsaber too.....
ISP's/hosting companies also tend be be quite happy to privide cgi/php/asp but are far less likely to let the average user go and install some compiled program which could be doing anything.
It makes you wonder if the Playstation is a topic worthy of 3 articles on the/. home page
Just imagine what it will be like here the day when the M$ XBox is lauched, a troll fest like no other I imagine.
Me, got to get meself one of them console things, never had one meself. But damn it, I've finally worn out my C64 joystick:)
With the fall of communism, the Russians have lost favour as the baddie of choice. But you've still got to have a sterotypical accent. You wouldn't want to confuse the audiance know, would you?! Instead we Brits get that role!!! But then I'm not complaining, the bad guys so often have much better character depth.
As for a role where J.H didn't play the bad guy, try Danny, the Champion of the World Oi! stop sniggering at the back, it was a high quality film:)
just what we need, more snooty U.S Americans telling us we suck.
p.s Try learning a bit of British geography. Britiam isn't just filled with Englishmen, thinking such just annoys the Welsh, Scots & the North Irish.
