    I'm so witty.

    You're 50% right.

    Oh, wait... my bad! They're just going to unplug the server a couple of days from now.

    If you're poor, too bad -- no school, no healthcare, no shelter for you. It's very Darwinian.

    Ironically, most of them don't believe in actual (finches and all that) Darwinism.

  6. Though Trump is a couple of years older.

    Not what I meant and you know it. Compare her to when she ran against Obama. Can't you see the difference? She's clearly past her prime.

    Same with McCain. I think he'd have been better than Shrub, but when he ran with Palin he just looked kind of frail. Then again maybe it was being around her...

  7. Well I would choose the 'let's try something ambitious and if it doesn't work just admit and stop doing it'

    Using somebody else's money? Of course I would - who wouldn't?

    Something ambitious might involve cheerleaders, sheep and a jacuzzi full of Theakston's, mind.

    It could be that the populations of those countries are largely homogeneous.

    Don't think so. A lot of them are fairly slim.

    Might want to leave Denmark off that list.

    Since they have broadly similar forms of economic organisation you might want to leave all the others off too.

    How do they know? With Finns you can generally work out that they're somewhere between suicidally depressed and ecstatically happy but it's difficult to be more precise than that.

    GP could perhaps have been clearer, but don't just think about the total number of people. Think about the age distribution.

    Because that, in fact, is the problem.

    At one time only hikers and mountaineers would know they existed, along with maybe a few outdoor photographers who used their pop-out mitts.

    I'm not saying it's a bad thing if editors are moderating.

    It's not as if they're doing anything else to fill their time, is it?

    And I'm not necessarily against editors moderating or even deleting obvious spam.

    Neither am I, but only because my definition of "obvious spam" agrees entirely, completely and 100% with yours.
