Spamcop, who say that their email is spamproof, no matter where you post your mail address. Also, I use postmaster.co.uk, and get no spam, never have. They take a VERY dim view on that sort of thing, and they be free!
I am very well studied in this sort of thing, and simply put, anyone who still thinks that humankind can benefit from animal experimentation should read this site thoroughly, stick a crowbar up their ass and open up their mind. I recommend it as a site which discusses only the scientific standpoint, leaving the ethic aside (although the ethic should be enough of a reason to abolish vivisection).
What will they learn from this? Better brain surgery techniques for rats. Not humans, rats.
Do they have a right? Only if you think that "lesser" creatures only have as much right to life as it's usefulness to you. And if you think that way, then start rounding up handicapped people for the vivisection labs.
If that's the way you feel then why don't you have the microscope implanted into your head... Don't like that do you? Neither does the rat.
Rats may not have the lavish and lengthy life that we do, but they're still entitled to live their lives the way rats do, without amoral "scientists" vivisecting them.
Besides, a rat brain is a damn sight different to a human one, and frankly unless you apply this technique to a human brain, then this "research" will lead down some potentially dangerous dark alleys, and life will have been destroyed in a useless experiment.
As it happens, A Muslim from Libya lived with me for a year, his name was Muhammad. He was one of the kindest, gentlest men I have ever known, and easily the holiest. It's true what you say about the Muslim creed being peaceful. Their treatment of animals particularly.
However, Muhammad explained that the Islamic call to arms is irrefutable to it's believers. He said that even tough he could never hurt a person unless he or a loved one was in the worst of danger, he did say that he would shoot Salman Rushdie in the street, no question. This shocked me, you would have had to know the man to really appreciate the gravity of his conviction, but the fact is that *The general consensus* amongst Muslims is the very same. If religious law calls for the killing of a person, there's no if's, and's or but's, and only a few Muslims would refuse.
Like I said, I apologise if you weren't coming accross that way. Just the "Try that"! line. It just sort of seemed like you were saying "I gave up all of this" instead of "I choose not to consume this".
Dude, I would never presume to rubbish anyone's beliefs, but why no sex? I always considered (monogamous) sex a very important part of the mental health aspect of a clean lifestyle. It promotes love, it's beautiful, and great excersise (espescially if you take up a Yoga) and it very gently releases your stress. Screw this premarital thing, though. I don't see rabbit chapels in my part of town, so I won't have that double standard!
Dude, it's not a "giving up stuff" contest! I'm a clean living vegan, but I don't wear a badge or anything! Much less do I rub it in people's faces. If tehy want to screw their bodies up with animal flesh or drugs, it's their tough. I just silently preach with my bright eyes, near-limitless energy, clear skin and slim-for-life figure.
Can anyone recommend any good alternatives? I would like to give up caffiene, I am a very clean living person and apart from a glass of organic white wine of an evening, my morning and afternoon cup of coffee is my vice. I tried rosehip tea, but that just doesn't turn the gears for me. Any suggestions?
This is plain idiocy. The supposed point of the "mission" is to test the feasibility of mammals inhabiting Mars. So, the results will show how well mice might fare.
Mind you, If I were a mouse, I wouldn't want to share a planet with an arrogant species that thinks I exist for the purpose of it's experiments, so I'd probably view this as a very handy escape option for my species.
...Forcefeed them large amounts of spam. If they die from salmonela or similar, then they have achieved an honourable, Christian death.
If, however, they use their abnormal tolerance to spam to survive, then they will have proved their true nature, at which point they will report immediately to the gallows. Innit.
In my humble opinion, that's absolutely hunky dorey. There is such a thing as provocation, and it often releases an attacker (in the physical world) from liability, so I'd like to see the same principle applied here.
Also, when it comes up in court that monsterhut got whacked left and right in the good ol' DDoS fashion, it will make public opinion of their practices glaringly clear, and I believe that this would be an important step toward achieving real legislation against spammers.
I want in on that one on the ground floor if these cd's ever pop up in Europe. Like yourself I'm a big fan of portable mp3 cd players, and if I found that I unknowingly bought one I couldn't use the way I intend, I would demand one that did, or threaten a lawsuit based on prevention of fair use. Those bastards.
I aggree with this and put it a step further: It's certainly more than time that costs money, how about when your mailbox fills up quicker than you can empty it in a few days from spammers? If hotmail for instance developed a super duper magical filter that eliminated 100% of spam, their servers would be 1/10th the size. Therefore, I reckon that we need more companies like bibliotech who actively sue the people clogging up their service with bogus material.
And I aggree with the Ireland being awful for dialup. I moved, and I'm not coming back until cable modem access is pletiful and good. Over and out.
Look, that's the greatest load of twoddle I have ever heard. You have this jaded notion that the porn market exists for people who aren't in the best position to find a sexual partner. Let me clue you in sonny, because you have this ass backwards.
I keep porn. I also have a live-in partner. There's not a damn thing wrong with our sexual relationship, in fact, it's the envy of our friends. We also make no bones about the fact that I keep porn, and she keeps sex toys.
Why?
Because we can't schedule hormones, that's nature's job. We work diferent hours, Often I'm tired or she's tired, and of course, her period... So, this is why this stuff has a place in ANY relationship. Of course there is also the benefit of having this stuff around as an extra kink to add to the mix, but basically it's there as a handy (ROTTEN pun) stand in.
Anyway, you seem very tense. You should have had a wank, innit?:)
Why do they bother? It would be easier and cheaper to deploy some guys accross the city wearing cop uniforms, aiming hairdryers at passing rented cars. I did it for years and saved many lives. I'm a hero.
In England and Ireland, (I'm a citizen of both) mobiles phones are a fashion accessory. Sure, they do pretty things, and you can even communicate with them, but I overhear too many conversations about why 'the 8000 series will never be trendy'. It's ridiculous.
Seriously though, Ireland probably has it best. Very up to date phone range, quite cheap phone rates, and the service providers often give you a day's free calls or £5 free credit on special occasions. (pre-pay) The only thing that sucks is that they still lock the phones, but if you own the phone for over 12 months or use over £100 credit, they will give you an unlock code if you ask.
Keep those addresses somewhere, and throw them into the bogus "remove" accounts that spammers list at the bottom of their spams. Another point successfully rammed home when he tries to get removed from their list, only to find himself getting double the amount each day:)
On another point: When he's talking about the value of bulk mail to internet busines, he obviously never actually tried to follow up on a spam offer. Nost of the time, the links are invalid shortly after the spam is sent, due to the webspace accounts being cancelled.
I would love to hear the logic behind institutaing that kind of law. It's probably designed to make the government look tough on drugs. If you can get smack as easily as a mars bar, then I can't imagine there being any difficulty in getting clean needles to go with it.
"Want some smack, man"? "No way! The man won't let you get clean needles around here, you could get AIDS and stuff, it's too risky, I'll stick with the crack"!
My brother shares the same sort of opinion, though a little more extreme: "We live in a police state". He says. "Why does that matter? If you're doing nothing wrong, you've nothing to fear".
This is all well and good, but I should still have my privacy respected. I'm no criminal. But since when was hiding something or being guilty a prequisite for wanting your privacy respected? I don't believe I should even need to justify this to anyone, government included.
When you talk about medics having lifesaving information, remember that you volunteered this information for the good of your own health, to a rightfully trusted group. The medical boards wouldn't dare sell it on because it would discourage people from giving the information in the first place, just like how most people give false information to internet companies and spamproof their addys, because people are sick of their information being abused.

...The scratch and sniff centre pages of High Society (porn mag) about a year ago. Man, I just couldn't leave that on the shelf.

I never smoked, but I've been an addict and it's no fun. Just don't do a Barney Gumble and replace your cigs with six double tall mocha lattes!

A crappy pseudo sci-fi show, Duchovny returning to porn, and Anderson hosting the weakest link.

Does this remind anyone immediately of the positive viruses in Red Dwarf which conferred good luck, sex appeal and such?
