  9. Re:Futurama.. on Discovery's Dangling Gapfiller Removed by Hand · · Score: 1

    i remember watching FOX news a few months ago (i was watching discovery and FOX is one down....hmm never thought i would have to justify my reasons for watching a channel), we get it on our Satellite broadcaster SKY started by that lovely chap Murdoch here in britian, anyway their was this "chat show" program on with annoying blond hosting it.

  10. Re:Kind of sad... on NASA's Shuttle Plans · · Score: 1

    yes it does look similar but it is tiny in comparison to the behemoth of the space shuttle. Also SS1 isn't going into space proper nor is it designed for people and cargo.

    Small space planes are fine to use for sending people into space, their isnt the inherent problems with heat distribution etc you get with large space planes.

  22. Re:Bill Gates is wrong on Bill Gates Proclaims US High Schools Obsolete · · Score: 1

    The Britsh educational system isnt alot better! If you want to go private (public) and have you have the money the entry test is usually ignored. its really only useful for underprivileged kids to get bursaries to get in. The axing of the English Grammar schools has seriously damaged educational prospects for working class kids (and middle classes who cant afford private fees) over here. I know there are plenty of arguments of why there should not be a two tier state education, but the comprehensive model has completely failed.
