  1. The thing that really peeved me off was this ; the Navy from Plymouth have been called in to help the situation in Gloucestershire (good) and they were shown marching along the road - why marching :) ? Just get the hell as quick as possible to where you've been asked to go and save some people's livelihoods etc!!

    Maybe because the sight of them marching instills far less panic than if they were to run around like headless chickens!

  2. :wacko:

    It's ok Andy, I'll make it simpler for you.

    In the beginning there were blobs, these blobs developed into different blobs, bigger, better more complex blobs! Graduallly the blobs took shape! they became early life forms! They oozed their way out of the mud and developed individual features! Legs, arms, wings, etc.

    Through the years these ex-blobs become more and more complex. Some develop intelligence, they begin using tools, they build things, learn things, create all sorts of wondrous thing! They become humans! Some don't.

  3. PP have you read all of that site?

    It is incredible!!!

    I am not going to be swayed by the opinions of people who actually believe the bible literally and that the earth was created in 6 days with no evidence whatsoever.

    I really worry about the way you seem to jump on random bandwagons. First 9/11, then the neo-cons, now Intelligent design. I can understand wanting to question the world in which we live but try not to swallow everything you read on the internet.

    You know fully well what is presented by some people online can be a total lie!

  4. And haploid crossover may create variation within the same species, but not new information so as to result into a different species.

    So - say millions and millions of years ago we all started out as the same 'blob'. Haploid variation kicks in and we evolve into different 'blobs'. This continues over the millenia and the 'blobs', thru haploid crossover, vary to such a degree that they are now different species?

  5. But it doesn't, It's good for the environment but don't think it means your CO2 footprint it neutralised because it ain't.

    Let agree to disagree. :)

    So we do nothing?

    I don't bother turning my mobile charger off, I don't use energy saving lightbulbs, because it's such a teeny amount of energy saved? I'm sorry but that attitude sucks. I'd rather do my bit however small than sit in judgement over those who are trying to help.

    Paul already said in the grand scheme of things it's only a small amount, he's not claiming to try to reverse AGW. So well done Paul, I'm glad you are doing your bit. :)

  6. There are a lot of carbon offseting companies that do just that in China, however it costs approx 20 times more to offset your carbon that way, the real way.

    See this is what puts people off doing anything. Because as soon as they do someone comes along and says, why don't you do more, and when they do they're still not satisfied! You can't please some people.
