Don't confuse opium with opiates, but yep, Tasmania produces around 40% of the worlds legal opiates. Citation.

Yay for a politically stable country with a dose of common sense.

No thanks. I'd rather people were fully aware of the potential drawbacks to what they might buy, and as a result choose the best product - not the one with the best hidden shitty drawbacks.

As a neat aside, the company might have to make a better product. Everyone wins.

Get back to me when an organisation as respected as the British House of Commons says that.

Investigating prospective rental properties? Identifying the terrain and surroundings before travelling to a new location?

Here's another thought: If you don't learn, it's not the professors problem. If I don't work hard, I don't get to bitch at my boss that my job wasn't interesting enough. I get fired.

University should be where kids meet the real world and start acting like adults, or fail.

What kind of flamewar is this? And more importantly, how do we tell who's winning?

Driving a car without power steering is very different to driving a car with failed power steering interfering, in my experience.

When I was young and dumb I drove a big 1980's ford long after it's power steering (and much else) failed. Awesome workout, PITA to park.

As an Australian, can I please just say "NOT FUNNY".

This random gentlemen on the internet claims that composed would be the correct word in this case (comprised would be a synonym for including, where I was imagining CBS to be clearly made up only of horses).
And he has an entire book published just to explain why everyone is making errors when writing English, so I'm inclined to trust someone with that much dedication.

These informative mods always make me imagine a moderator sitting stunned behind a monitor: "Of course! CBS could be composed of horses!

I also can hear the noise caused by CRTs, and oddly enough also in some solid-state electronics. I've also got low level tinnitus When I asked a hearing specialist about it, he suggested that it might be related, with some noise or EM frequency stimulating a poorly sheafed auditory nerve.

This guy is still nuts though. Why do we care what the man thinks is causing his 'allergy'? Get him some real help, in the form of mental health and housing support.

Is anyone else's brain tripping on this as badly as mine? I Am Not A "Has in place an agreement"? What the hell is a "has in place an agreement", and why would your lack of being one make you unqualified?

Stupid memes, acronyms.

Interesting? -1, Wrong. If your profile is not set to be searchable, that information is unavailable.

Coincidentally, I've taken five minutes to set my privacy settings correctly and have only praise for the increased granularity now available. What percentage of those complaining here have ever used facebook anyway?

Over here in sleepy old Adelaide, South Australia, our Westfield guards have been known to cause deaths Security guard charged over elderly man's death. Walking into a mall with your bike helmet accidentally left on will quickly atttract a number of tall, angry men.
A mask would be asking for way more trouble than it would be worth, as it'd be taken as practically a declaration of intent to cause trouble.

You can leave us Australians out of it.

As soon as it starts getting tough, we'll notice that we have more uranium than we can ever use. Ten years later, we'll be self sufficient for energy again.

FSM, forgive me for responding to the troll, but s/he did get modded to +5.
