  1. basic economics - the intelligent people will justify taking nearly everything for themselves history repeats - the thickos get sick of clever peoples brain power pushing them around, so they start murdering. People say the communist revolutions failed - so what. The mere fact that revolutions happen at all means its part of our nature The killing of Rasputin was the match which set fire to a vast heap of patriotic determination. Russia would deserve well of her Allies. She would give herself a chance. The fire quickly spread, and ran from class to class, from caste to caste, from the civilians to the troops. It smouldered in Petrograd on Saturday, flamed up on Sunday, and became a conflagration yesterday. This morning I heard that its purpose had been achieved. All the regiments in Petrograd have declared for the Duma and the people, and the Naval Barracks have been opened to enable the sailors to make common cause with the rest.
  2. 'keep your eyes open and your mouth shut and you can't go wrong'
  3. ^ in which case the government should have cultured a few giant vats of sars-cov-2 and sent each household a small sample in an envelope to dab
  4. the c and f words both release chemicals in the brain - people become addicted to the rush
  5. Maybe it does mean fuck all. Moderation means fuck all to the pigs. 4 foreign holidays a year if they can afford it. Drive from London to the Jurassic Coast in a Chelsea tractor just for a day at the beach. I get the feeling we havent seen a decent sized environmental disaster yet. The fun will prevail and the smoke keep rising. The hypocrites will pedal their wares
  6. Its not a question of being in a position to, or not. If one does speak out - that is observable behaviour. Hypocritical maybe, but still a natural phenemenon.
  7. I do. I'm just a cog in a big wheel. I dont expect I'll ever stop causing harm to the environment. Amazon rainforest being decimated. Thermal coal powering China. Worldwide nuclear waste rotting in undisclosed locations. Stop violence. Stop materialism.
  8. None of it matters anyway - the pigs will continue to pollute the Earth in the name of free enterprise.
  9. too late - a snapshot of it was caught by the Wayback Machine
  10. the fundamental forces are all much of a muchness - is gravity that different to the force that lifts the Maglev? if you really believe it all came out of absolutely nothing, a vacuum, once upon a time
  11. At average gravity on Earth (conventionally, g = 9.80665 m/s2), a kilogram mass exerts a force of about 9.8 newtons. An average-sized apple exerts about one newton of force, which we measure as the apple's weight.[4] 1 N = 0.10197 kg × 9.80665 m/s2 (0.10197 kg = 101.97 g) So Khriss gave a good approximation (water is 1kg/litre) these questions are fairly common - in Bing etc type in 25N = kg will return25 newtons = 2.54929053 kilograms-force so round the answer to 2.55 kg (approx 2litres plus 550ml water) if you want to go all sciency you can weigh the container and deduct one ml of water for each gram the bottle etc weighs
  12. as above model numbers would help - the old FS130 were 4-mix and the valve gap had to be adjusted after so many hours, FS131 may need the same.
  13. maybe the stems will talk to each other by way of the hormones and work out a way to live together
  14. I'm sorry. I promise I won't ever do it again. Best wishes
  15. Cant see why it had to end with a happy yellow face
  16. I dont want to wind my neck in, sounds painful. If youd rather be spoon fed subby work thats up to you. As someone else pointed out the other day - there is an ignore function - please use it. (Smiley emoticon ommited)
  17. Centrica owns it all? Should I buy the shares, will they recover?
  18. Theres loads of Dynorod always putting up TM never stopped. You couldnt buy a franchise or otherwise set up yourself.
  19. see below - there's always work about, but it could be too physical for you, make you tired. I think you enjoy whining in internet chat rooms more than anything else, so you have no motive to get on.
  20. doing a temporary menial job to tide you over would be too much like hard work
  21. so two main problems are not enough work, and can't go to the pub. Shouldn't mean people are bored though. What about studying to further a skill set? Reading doesn't have to be Middlemarch, could be an electronics textbook for example. “The growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs.” – George Eliot, Middlemarch.
  22. most tree work seems to be more aimed at risk removal, 'don' want my grandchildren playing under that' etc, which is fair enough. If you want to see a big tree, go to the tree museum (and stand well clear).
  23. Your average tree contractor may not know about patterns of decay of all the different fungi, for example, some do, some don't. So trying to get free advice as part of a quote visit isn't always going to give you a definitive answer. The tree guys on here know their stuff when it comes to work positioning and machinery maintenance, but you often see contractors asking 'what fungi is this?' The best thing a tree owner can do is not let humans or valuable infrastructure near it ever, then the tree can safely manage itself until death.
