    What kind of security is that? The terrorists out there must be feeling a lil bit depressed. with all their months of planning, when all you have to do is run like a lunatic towards the doors. and the Security officers inside, looked like they were in a Wedding!! with Suits and Shirts and Tie and Black leather shoes. Amazing. And we just had the Batman in Buckingham. AHHHH This is REAL freedom

    How come this forum, in its political-type debates, always focuses on America and not the UK or something? We argue about Bush but not Blair. Why?

    I need to get a new laptop, and I was thinking about a Dell Latitude D800. Has anyone tried this machine? Anyone have any advice? I have decided against having a truely dinky laptop since I will be doing the majority of my work on this. It doesn't really need to be terribly fast - I don't do anything graphics intensive. Battery life is important but 2-3hrs is probably enough.

    I noticed that some Users have a ranking of sorts below their User Name in their posts. I'm guessing this is based on the amount of posts the user has made. What is the scale of posts needed for each rank?

    I am opposed to what my teacher said. We have two different mass syring balance. And he said that we could obtain two equal weight if we use the two syring balance to measure each other. They are the normal balance used in common laboratory.

    I have a question regarding my hearing and I think this is on the right board. I remember hearing that someone who studied music theory said that if someone listens constantly to music or any other sound and always has that sound in the background that it can be as detrimental to your hearing as listening to loud music on occasion? Is this true and if so how can it be treated? I hope this topic made sense.

    I don't remember correctly from history, but I think I remember my teacher talking about the Olmecs inventing the wheel independently from the other side of the world. But my teacher said the Olmecs never used the wheels for carts or carrying stuff. Then I read something about how some Native Americans came to America from the Pacific islands. If this is true, perhaps they could've used the wheel for steering the boats.

    I have just read an excellent article from "The Economist" about decoding European diplomats. http://www.economist.com/world/europe/PrinterFriendly.cfm?Story_ID=3152907 its asks a question For example, how many non-Brits could decode the irony (and literary allusion) which lies behind the expression “up to a point”, which is used to mean “no, not in the slightest” and I have no idea what the answer is. anyone have a go?
