That means about 1% of the public thought it was worth commenting on. That's not enough to make a lot of waves unless that 1% is planning to make a lot of campaign donations or something.
Or if they are fucking nutters. This is larger than the percentage of Muslims in the USA but look at all the concessions they get.
Ignorance is not bliss
I didn't want to know that!
If any states residents contracted ebola, Id not be surprised if they were from Texas. We're talking about a state that thinks life begins at conception and rainfall will occur if you just pray for it. Its a wild, magical place where homosexuality can be cured but global warming is a hoax. A fantastic wonderland where Texas legislator Jodie Laubenberg thinks rape kits cause abortions and most residents think the president is a secret kenyan. at the end of the day in texas the miracle of life is no more complex than creation science saddleback rides on dinosaurs.
Lets just hope they don't try and cure it by the "laying on of hands".
... The 'cures' being worked are anti-retrovirals that inhibit the viral replication,.
Your spot on except its plain anti-virals; ebola is not a retrovirus
I guess they think my account "bob disembodied brain" is a real person.
Seems legit to me.
As real as you are!
In general, Britain has an anti-sneak culture, so I doubt many people would literally report their neighbour. It's more likely to be general nosiness.
Plus the urge to check your cars to make sure that they have "got it right".
This is the dumbest thing. You've been able to renew your tax disc online for years now and the site's always been fine. You don't have to replace you're existing paper disc until it expires so I don't understand how they've taken a functional site, added barely any additional load and made it fall over.
I put it down to many sites saying that anyone can check any cars status on the government's vehicle inquiry service (currently down). Loads of people want to check whether their friends and neighbours cars are legal.
If you tell them 100 is the hottest summer day and 0 is the coldest winter one, they'll have a pretty good idea that halfway between, 50, is roughly the average temperature during spring and fall.
I think you would find that given this description most people in the UK would have a totally wrong impression of the scale.
Its bound to be . . . a Blockbuster
(apologies - I couldn't resist)
They both share the 4 pints to the gallon, but there's no weight equivalent.
Am I missing something or are there 8 pints to a gallon?
You are right, he must have been thinking of quarts.
If that system had been kept, what would have happened to the introduction of VAT?
It would have been a boon time for accountants!
He said taught, not use. There is a massive difference. Personally don't see the harm in that at all.
He was responding to the point that "Schools should teach pupils mainly in imperial and not metric measurements". I have nothing against teaching arcane units, in fact I find it interesting - but to stop teaching metric is just plain stupid
