It's been a while

Hello folks,

I've been spending a lot of time with World of Warcraft these last few months, but decided to pop in and see what the lay of the land was.

Glad to see that you are all discussing and counter-discussing various topics...like this one for example.

I must admit, I got to the end, hoping for a revelation, an answer, something...but as usual it sort of fizzed out. I was reminded of countless committee meetings where it's all blah blah blah but no eventual outcome.

Oh well, it's all light-hearted fun I suppose. It's not like any of us have a red-phone hotline to George or Tony and can say "Hey buddy, we sorted it out on the forum, you need to do this....". Which renders the discussion fairly pointless really.

Still, entertaining reading nonetheless.

I got to go....Tigris the Hunter needs some new gear and we're going down to Zul Gurub tonight. Got my eye on some more Beaststalker gear.

I think I need glasses. I thought it said child sex offenders....

Gary Glitter would be at home in either country?...ehmm...mcquiggd, they're actually refering to the number of under 18's executed each year so are you suggesting this would have been a solution to his possible prosecution?

[mcquiggd]

Bearing in mind the numbers as a proportion of the population, Gary Glitter would be at home in either country....

I've never read the Koran so can't comment. I tried it once but what with all the sitting and rocking and wailing I fell over and knocked myself out.

Religion is cruel...

How many would be executed every year in a similar sized muslim population under Sahria law....?

"Amnesty International recorded four executions of child offenders in 2004 - one in China and three in Iran.

Six child offenders have been executed in Iran since January 2005."

I'm sure someone can do the other maths, but by my back of an envelope reckoning if you're a kid then you're at least 20 times more likely to get the chop in Iran.

Yes no doubt that we humanoids must concede to your infinitely superior logic, your dynamic self adjusting rhetoric,and the coup de grace of your refusal to answer any questions.

All fully guaranteed by the Good Lord.

Brilliant.


Daddy , can I get a ChicoLogic Box (c) for Xmas too ?

Repeat after me:

Cumbaya my Lord, Cumbaya ....

The tree huggers lost the argument on logic, miserably failed on the historical detail and finally conceded on the legality issue. Hmm maybe I should send a link to the Editor of the Guardian and the other namby pamby commie rags.

Well why dont we ask the only person in the UK wo can legally tell us whether any war involving UK troops is legal or not - The Attorney General. Maybe someone could leak his legal opinion. Oh silly me somebody already did that and what was his summary - over to you Alfie.

I believe the leak was from the governmental legal advisor, Elizabeth Wilmshurst, who protested in her resignation letter just prior to the invasion, about sudden, unexplained changes the Attorney General had made in the tone of his legal advice to the government. In the space of a few weeks, Lord Goldsmith dropped suggestions that the government may have been legally culpable if it invaded without receiving specific support in the form of a new UN Resolution.

Oh dear. Its got worse. Wouldn't have thought that was possible.

Don't hold your breath. Major problem with logic gates. Unfortunately the Chico bot is made of wetware and in spite of millions of years of development, it seems the raw material was poor.

Obviously a creationist bot, hence the lack of evolutionary tendencies.
