My TVR Chimera, beautful looking and sounding car, had all the usual handbuilt flaws, including a fuel gauge that could never be persuaded to show the tank as less than a quarter full.
In the UK if you are caught without car tax the Police have the right to seize your car and have it crushed.
They really should make a reality tv show based on this, would be much more interesting (fun!) than all those thinly disguised Police PR shows (like Police Stop!).
And if reddit/atheism and Dawkins are anything to go by its adherents are basically the same rabid bigots that in the past would have been running the Inquisition in Spain "because we KNOW we're right!"
Fundamenal Christianity and Rabid Atheists in the mold of Dawkins have basically the same mind set. Closed minded, intolerant of difference and utter certainty that they are right and that if you disagree with them then you are in some sense damned.
In my local cinema we have sofas you can book in the cinema itself. And during the show I can text the bar to place my drinks and snacks order and they bring them to my seat and I settle up at the end.
I simply don't bother seeing films in the cinema any more unless they are showing there.
I like the Dresden books, like the stories, like his characters. But it is very much pulp fiction. The writing is not great -it's ok but not great- it's the stories and the characters that do it for me.
You're mistake is that you're looking at dual-specs, which are a solution to a basic flaw in WoW that some specs are really hard to solo (holy healing priest for example).
If a game doesn't have that flaw then it doesn't need the fix either. I'm playing a jedi sage (dps-healer, specced as healer) and I can easily solo and during the Flashpoints I spend most of my time dps-ing as it's only really on the bosses that I need to heal.
Which is great!
And does mean I dont have to worry about kludges like WoW's dual-speccing. I can dps and heal from the one spec.
Not really. Because I couldn't have played it with my wife.
And actually I quite like the social aspect of grouping up with a bunch of strangers now and then.
For me SWTOR has got the balance right- lots of solo play, but with a society around me, and enough multi-player content that I can dip into it when (and if) I want to.
The problem with Night's Dawn and Peter Hamilton's other trilogy is that he seems to get lost about halfway through after an excellent start, can't work out how to end the story (ie there is no way for his characters to 'win'), and so he resorts to a Deus Ex Machina to save them and the story.
The only reason you've had an almost-Western European standard of living without the Western Euroean levels of productivity (we don't let masseurs retire at 30 with state pensions in the West) is because your Government borrowed and borrowed and borrowed. Things will change as you have the. joy of repaying your debt mountain.
I was under the impression that there was no way to repudiate your US citizenship and that the IRS will consider you liable for tax regardless. Not true?

We do that already UK (and you can't a certificate of roadworthiness, MOT, without insurance).
Guess what that means...
In the UK vehicles are generally insured for specifc people to drive that specific vehicle.
You ask then question and then answer it in the following paragraph.
In any case, do you really think the system won't simply deny you fuel if it cannot read your number plate?

The flaws in your argument.
We have free health advice 'phone lines provided by our NHS and manned by qualified nurses.
Most people live in walking distance of their surgery. And pavements so, unlike many US cities, you can get there by walking.
We have free emergency ambulances, provided by the NHS.
We have people who drive people to where they want to go, we call them taxis.
We have bus services that will likely get you to a free clinic or an A&E if you don't think you should call an ambulance.
You really didn't think through your silly strawman at all did you?
I completely disagree.
This is an excellent solution.
And you'll only disagree with me until the point one of the douches driving whilst uninsured hits your car or runs you over.
Unless of course you are one of those douches. Driving a car is a privilege not a right.
disguising your number plate is an offence, and rightly so.
I infer that you meant to type imply and not implicate.
He can put you in Jail until you purge your contempt by revealing your password.
Legally speaking (sic) you wouldn't have a leg to stand on.

You do realise that some of those ~308 million are children, OAPs, invalids and of course the 1% and therefore don't figure into unemployment stats?
The most baseless claim in the summary is that there is a 5 mile wide sphere of Uranium acting as a nuclear reactor at the centre of the Earth.
There is no evidence for this, it's just wild speculation.
St Paul's Cathedral, the largest and best known and arguably most important religious building in London is definitely not free to visitors.
It costs £15 to get in! I was so shocked that I just turned around and walked away.

Dividing by zero is 'undefined' it is not 'infinity'.

Harry Potter for grown ups. (Ducks and runs).

It's only a label.
Bioware have stated explicitly (in the description of RP servers) that there will be zero RP enforcement of names or behaviour.
So there's nothing to stop people, as they already are, running around with names like EliteLightSabreDood.
There are no RP servers.
And the easiest way to shop around is... using the internet.
Was that really so hard?
Not for long you won't.

Uhm.no.
The industrial revolution was started by us English in the 18th Century (Google Ironbridge and Coalbrook dale).
