A excellent well written article about cap and trade

This show the typical hypocrisy of the tabloid press.

One has to sometimes wonder if SC is part of the real world! LOL

Even so, is it a chance that we should be taking or not?

Well he was obviously having a 'knees up' wasn't he?

I would agree that the subscription functions are too many. As someone that often sets up blogs for other people, I know what all the options are. Perhaps to other, more casual users, it can look confusing or even bewildering.

Is it wrong though to do a little bragging on one's own sites? I don't feel it is so, if it's not 'over the top."

As long as they don't flash everywhere, perhaps? LOL

That's another way of facing the issue.

You're quite correct of course! I didn't think of that. Every one unique.

Oh yes, Chuck. Pray tell, what is a hexathingummyjig?

Heck, most Englishmen of my age don't think in metres either. It was forced upon us by a government hell-bent into becoming 'European'. It was embedded in the graphic that got sent me, so that's how it ended up in the post.

Now, where's me pint gone?

Oh yes, I already mentioned above that it was for entertainment only.

I read this with interest, but without experience of either. I am currently a Blackberry Curve user, and I've been reasonably happy with it for the last year or so, but my renewal date with Verizon comes up in April, so I'm starting to look at what is on offer now even though I know there might be something else new out there in another 4-5 months.

Much of what I've read about the iPhone hasn't impressed me, and yes, I like a physical keyboard, and I avoid AT&T like the plague.

My smartphone upgrade choices seem to be either a new Blackberry, or an Android based phone. Many people have warmed me off of Windows based phones.

I shall keep my ears and eyes open.

I would suggest that you speak to somebody involved in Consumer protection in South Africa. There must surely be such an organization in the Pretoria area.

I like to live dangerously. It's more fun.

I found the story really amusing. It was a great payback!

As for arguing over Haggis, well perhaps not over the price but the origins. I read recently in a BBC article ( http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/8180791.stm ) that Haggis originally came from England. That would be a good way to start an argument in a Glaswegian pub.

We haggled and decided to go Dutch on the beer, so that blew the whole American thing out of the window...

I bought my first 'IBM-Compatible' PC back in 1986. It came with MS-DOS 3.3 and a set of half a dozen 3.5 floppies marked "Windows 1.0" I installed them, and played with this pretty looking thing for a while. It had a notepad type orgram in it, and a paint program, and, as I recall, not much else. There were no other applications back then.

I got bored with it after a short while, and deleted it.

I upgraded a few times over the next few years, but it wasn't until some time in early 1994, when I finally installed Windows 3.1 on my computer. I was more than happy with DOS, and it was, for the time, quite fast and responsive on my 386-based machine with a huge 8MB RAM. Windows turned it into a relative slug, so much of the time, I stayed in DOS anyway.

I've always thought that those DOS days were of great benifit, as I've never been unable to use, or been intimidated by a command line prompt.

The last point is particularly worth noting. Why indeed tell the world that your home is going to be empty for a period of time?

Aww. You have a secret admirer out there somewhere.

Most everything you can grow tastes better when home-grown, simply because there's a lot less time twixt picking and cooking!
