idiot. You can drink pure ethanol and you'll still get a hangover if you drink enough of it. "all the other crap"... what other crap do you think is in vodka, beer, wine etc. that you don't get in other foods or fruit juices? I never heard of anyone getting a hangover from a non-alcoholic food or beverage.

Also, taking paracetamol (2, for chrissakes!) whilst drunk is a certain recipe for liver trouble.

If that's how you've been avoiding hangovers up to now, I'd get checked up ASAP... there's a strong chance you already have irreversible damage.

Only for windows and Pocket PC... but I've been using it in Parallels on OSX for a while, and found that now I have an iPhone I use other apps as an 'inbox' on the iphone, but keep the real data structure on the PC.

Offers sync over FTP, which might be nice if you want it to work at home, too.

I don't spend so much time gaming. But having wasted a good many hundreds of hours on MUD's back in the day. I can say the one thing I found inherently unattractive about the recent flavour of MMORPGs was the fact that you had to go find friends, become part of a guild or team, and work through all those stupid politics and social chores just to be able to play.

I don't necessarily want to make friends. I just want to play. What I *Love* about multi-player games is the fact that you meet real people along the way, and have the *opportunity* to befriend or interact if you so choose. What I don't want in my escapism is some social obligation to go through the same bulsh*t with people to "get my game done" as I have to at work to "get my job done".

I've been using TV-enabled satnavs here in Japan for many years. The law forces dealers to make the TV switch off when the car is moving.

However most 3rd party fitters will bypass this restriction, and it's fairly common to see asshats driving round with the TV fully on.
