  1. Ha ha - in mexico Durex is a brand of socks - lets hope that doesn't lead to too much confusion among british tourists there Never try to eat more than you can lift
  2. I agree with kallend. Regardless of whether i believe people need to own guns, I think governments should butt out a lot of the time and stop using natural disasters/ terrorism/ (insert event here) to gain more control. Unfortunately, it does raise another point. Define law abiding. I'm sure a lot of the looters were law abiding before they went off looking for some bargains....

  3. Nice car Michele!! Have driven one a few times here and VTEC rocks, makes it like two different cars. It also has the benefit of being one of the most reliable engines ever designed. Now go find a nice smooth twisty road and go practice keeping the engine up in the exciting zone!!! Never try to eat more than you can lift
  4. Because we are smarter than the rest of the world. One thing I have wondered for a long time is why people think the Chinese are so smart. If they were all that smart they would have come up with the idea for forks instead of those dumbass chopsticks! Walt In China and Japan, knives and forks were seen as weapons and tools and therefore stay in the kitchen. Civilised people did not use weapons at the dinner table, hence chopsticks. Since you asked!! Never try to eat more than you can lift
  5. Certainly kill a rabbit, and do an awful lot of damage to a human (and yes, kill them) if you shot them in the right place. Don't quite understand how that is non lethal and "safe" Never try to eat more than you can lift
  6. Actually, i would rather see them banned here than guns or knives!! They kill more people! I have never seen a gun in this country outside the armed forces, my old .22 range and bisley. Never try to eat more than you can lift
  7. Ok, so how comfortable would you feel standing in front of one then with someone aiming it at you? "Don't worry aout me, the ABL have considered it safe and non-lethal" Never try to eat more than you can lift
  8. Because thats likely to be a rational viewpoint of course..... I would have left that one OFF the list. Never try to eat more than you can lift

  13. Oh yeah - come to think of it so did I! I wonder if i will now be smited (smote?) by yoda for choosing an alternate religion.... Never try to eat more than you can lift

  16. Hey miami - sorry to hijack slightly, but whats the cover you have for your stills there? Never try to eat more than you can lift
  17. How does a computer kill someone? its not designed to do that. What it did do, is do lots of sums to help someone aim a very big gun more accurately. To kill people. like it was designed for. Your example is bunkum. I guess if you dropped it on someone from high enough then you could kill someone with it, but there are much more effective weapons designed for the purpose. Like guns geez Never try to eat more than you can lift
  18. Thats odd - hezbollah are claiming victory as well! If you gotta tell everyone you won, you didn't win. And since both the israelis (and GWB) and Hezbollah seem to be doing it in this case..... Never try to eat more than you can lift
  19. On the website, it says: RATE OF CLIMB at gross wt / maximum continuous power (WAT) Both engines 1520 ft/min What that actually means in real life you will have to ask someone who knows about this stuff - but by my calcs, thats just under 10 minutes Never try to eat more than you can lift

  22. Thats half the problem, the manual has got lost in the move i can firewire from camera to PC no problem, i can play camera to TV no worries, but when i plug the scart into my video, i don't seem to be able to get a picture showing (and therefore recordable) on my camera. I'm a bit stumped. Never try to eat more than you can lift
  23. Hi - can i do this? I have a Video cassette with some footage that i want to get onto my PC. can i record onto my PC105 and go from there? or can i go direct video-PC? what kit would i need to do this?
