Vet School?

When will people stop thinking it's cool to find new ways of wasting food? Whilst Carbon Fibre may be expensive, at least it's not using up food (that is sorely needed in many parts of the world) to be made.

Blast my cursory Reading! I thought taking Fingerprints could slow down earthquakes. **rumble**rumble*** hey, we need some more ink over here!!

I wish that would work Then all I would need to do is buy two small solar panels, give them the right environment and...whoah, at it babies, come on, show me your silicon :-) Hmm, what with using viruses to make batteries, maybe it isn't so far fetched!

I agree. What happened to the implicit agreement that flaws are first reported to the software manufacturer, and only if they block any cooperation does it get released to other research groups to see if they can mend it and then and only then to the public to force the manufacturer to do something?

What you can do though is to print it out, cross out any parts you don't like and return the modified version to the salespoint stating that that is what you agree to, then click OK and continue installation.

Oh no you don't! The system here ( in Germany) creates a split much too early (The kids are channelled at age 11), with very little (OK, let's be honest: none whatsoever) say by the kid, hardly any by the parent and once you're in one channel you can always drop down but cannot be "graded up". Additionally, there's a massive social stigma attached to the lower tier. It's the harshest and most unfair system I have witnessed so far (having been to school in France and the UK and now living in Germany)

Woohoo! Buy Windoze 7, komes wiff impwoved Paint!! Wow, what a feature. Ermm, does anyone actually use Paint? (Apart from my boss on his powerpoint jobbies) Like the parent, no matter how great a job they've made of it, it's still a joke as an upgrade justification! I mean, even my 5 year old daughter thinks Paint is crap!

What a fuss you guys put up! Here in Hamburg, we were informed of the date when the analogue signals would be turned off and that was it. If you want to watch digital, go and buy a receiver! There's plenty of choice, and if you don't like DVT then get a satellite dish and you're good for thousands of DVS channels. It's the way technology works Now the common old lightbulb is going to be banned (from sale) and the same trend continues: adapt! It's not up to the government to make sure you can live a coochy life if you're too lazy to do anything about it!

I'd say it's time to use a little bit of acid.....but not on your real fingerprints, rather on the virtual ones: i.e.: Burn baby burn, bye bye RFID chip!

I agree. It's time we stop this political correctness rubbish of pandying to everyone's wishes, and that people accept that sometimes the truth is uncomfortable. Tell them they're fat, no, actually acutely obese, and they should learn to cope with it and not try to force everyone else to pretend its a norm.

Oh great, Just because the US has them, we have to get them as well, despite the very vocal criticism there has been....what a bunch of blind and deaf sheep we have as eurocrats!

Speaking from experience,I disagree! We have been on many long car trips (as in between 8 and 16hrs) with our daughter who is now 5. Before she could speak she would just sit and stare wide-eyed at the countryside flashing past, now we talk, sing, take-turns drawing on an etch-a-sketch type board, play guessing games, read , etc... She has also learnt to spend time occupying herself, and has also learnt that at certain times she just needs to shut up and sit still because daddy is concentrating on traffic and finding the way. OK, it probably varies from kid to kid, but don't say it's impossible!
