We already had a Star Trek thread when the Nimoy thread was started, so that argument holds no water. No one 'started a Nimoy thread'. He was one of the 50 names on the list. What a specious remark. SC Nimoy appeared on the list of 50 for the first time last year. Topic started by DDT in 2010. Your move.

It was the Germans. Everything was the Germans. Jo Cox, JFK, Gandhi, Airey Neave, Queen Victoria, John Smith, Zac Goldsmith's dad, all the Germans fault. David Icke's lizard theory is more plausible. (From a UKIPper pespective of course).

The sickeningest word ever.

they should stop races there's obviously a massive safety risk thats endangering their lives. Racing should resume once the problem is fixed.In 2013, 785 people died in car accidents in the UK. Let's ban cars.no problems need to be investaged. If they found a serious fault in a certain model of cars then they are required by law to reposse the car until the problems are fixed. Completely irrelevant to the subject at hand. Come back when you've given your head a wobble and formulated a coherent and compelling argument. I won't hold my breath. Yeah, and let's look at another fact that - statistically speaking - TT riders are way safer than those attempting to climb the world's highest and most dangerous mountains. Some figures quoted here (a few years old) seem to back this up, though its written by a biker so maybe some bias.
