    Russia 'goes to war' with Georgia

    Sorry, did you have a point? Both Starcraftmazter and Nelson have posted equally long stuff. I don't pull Nelson's posts apart because they actually make, you know, sense compared to Starcraftmazter's insane rantings. Fair enough that you reject what I say because it's not purely anti-American...

    Job Application: Web Programmer

    It has a purpose, but that purpose sure as fuck isn't on a social networking or study site. Surprised they didn't specify JavaScript/DOM/AJAX/CSS skills. I get that CSS might be implied by HTML, but AJAX and DOM certainly aren't. It worries me when Flash gets a mention over Javascript.

    You know, that's tempting. Give me six months. But ew at proprietary Flash. I hope you find someone. :)

    If you average the ages, the Democrats are still younger.

    Syria: ready to put Russian missile systems on its soil to counterweight US plans

    Um... dude I was talking about the Gulf War. I don't think F-22's were even invented then. I fully support our military alliance with America, but I fail to see how we're America's lapdogs. Seems something some brain-dead, left-winger would say to try and cadge up anti-American sentiment. And I...

    NSW Power privatisation defeated

    lol. Anyway, first I've heard of an energy crisis. If it exists, I think we can blame the Liberal government, no? If there's not enough infrastructure, I think they've been around long enough - 10 years - to have caused it or fixed it. We certainly don't have a lack of energy resources.

    London Mayor was Rude, Arrogant says China

    Haven't seen it. I certainly don't feel the Chinese deserved respect considering the way they handled it, though. Amazingly, China's problems don't suddenly evaporate when the Olympics end.

    Russia 'goes to war' with Georgia

    Poverty in Russia is down to 14% now (was 40% in 2000). Comparatively, poverty in America is 12%. I think America's definition of poverty is more generous than Russia's (i.e. by American standards, Russia's poverty would be higher), but the point is, Russia has managed to really tackle the...

    London Mayor was Rude, Arrogant says China

    A lot of sense is it? Which part, exactly? "Unfortunately, the singer and Jimmy Page are absolutely not famous enough to be known or recognised by millions of the Chinese audiences." *cough* "When he was stepping to the stage and down, he put his hand in the pocket of his jacket." Oh Jesus...

    London Mayor was Rude, Arrogant says China

    I felt his actions (blown out of proportion as they were) were perfectly justified given the way China handled the Olympics. :) I don't want to live in "One World" if it means bowing to CPC inspired Chinese Nationalism.

    London Mayor was Rude, Arrogant says China

    Why make this about China's development? We were talking about freedom and multiculturalism in Britain, remember? :) You and quite a few Chinese (judging by the article in the OP), get offended by freedom of expression. Why is that? (BTW, I'd think after many turbulent years brought on by...

    London Mayor was Rude, Arrogant says China

    Cynical? What's to be cynical about? You, like the many Chinese, see freedom of expression and speech, sexual freedom, and equality among class, race and sex to be antithetical to a well-functioning society. Whatever would I have to be cynical about?

    London Mayor was Rude, Arrogant says China

    Oh shit you ARE Chinese. Hahaha. I was totally joking, but your reaction makes sense now. Yeah, down with the Western devil. We must stem this fulminating tide of equality and freedom of expression!

    Is Religion the main cause of Poverty or is money?

    Shit, you're right. How do I subscribe to your magazine. Have you written a book on that or something? You should.
