charon 4,943 Posted March 17, 2014 I really hope when the "Big One" finally comes, it wipes out L.A. for once instead of San Fran again. That'd be one remake/"re-imagining" I could really get behind! what about all those poor innocent people who would die?

Bibliogryphon 9,586 Posted September 30, 2014 Not sure where to post this but here seems as good as any. The situation in Hong Kong is very worrying. The Chinese government are in a quandry. If they give in they potentially start a creeping process of democratisation which they are not yet prepared for but if they clamp down (to whatever degree) they run the risk of ruining HK's reputation as a safe place to do business. Apparently BBC website is off in China and they have shut down access to Instagram. I think people should be paying a lot of attention to this. In the worst case this could make Libya look like a Sunday school picnic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted January 21, 2015 And now for those who can take it, some Noam Chomsky....... (warning don't read if easily depressed) Article annoyed me at first cos he spent so much time going on about the bloody environment, I mean who gives a toss after the events of the last year, build up of big tensions around Russia and Syria, and ISIS nutters and what not?

Paul Bearer 6,102 Posted February 11, 2015 Thanks Phantom. Much appreciated. Every time I try to copy and paste the story, I seem to post a quote that I used when I was swimming with sharks. Namely "Well, that was fun. Green alert going into the pool, red alert when we passed into the shark tank, and brown alert when they got too close " 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
