"You can't handle the truth !" "There is no truth. There is only perception." “I don't believe that there's one truth. There are so many different people, and there are so many different ways you can look at things. I don't see how there could be just one truth.” "Materialism coarsens and petrifies everything, making everything vulgar, and every truth false." "Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth" "Truth is a good dog; but always beware of barking too close to the heels of an error, lest you get your brains kicked out." Over to you :- http://www.whatistruth.org.uk/quotesontruth.php ============================== I don't hate anybody on here, it's not as if I actually know any of you. I despair of some, and if what others post comes anywhere near what they believe than they have my pity, but I do not think there are any souls so dark that they cannot be turned for the better.

Give me a real book every time. I'm the sort of luddite that prints out PDFs just to read them easier, ( and I have worked in IT for 28 years ! )

HM Treasury are currently advertising for a new economist to work in the OBR http://www.civilservice.gov.uk/jobs/careers-detail.aspx?JobId=15989 I love the tag line : 'Please note - HM Treasury provides HR support services to the OBR, however the OBR remains independant from the Treasury', where they can't even spell independent correctly. ( As Jim Royle would say " Independent - my @rse" )

Why thank you JB, I really hadn't worked that one out for myself !!!!! The 'they' I was referring to were the targets being goaded by the OP - you, June, etc

No.

At....... ( bless you ! )

To paraphrase the interviewer "The money could be used to help save lives in the poorest countries, fight climate change around the world, and help avoid cuts to crucial public services" : no wonder they won't answer, they don't understand the concept.

And I think you are typical of the far right - what a way to carry on a reasoned debate I don't think any of this is to do with 'Conservative policy' - nor more accurately with COALITION policy. I think the OBR is no more independent of the Treasury than Wales is of the UK.

I'l see your BBC article, and raise it with some Financial Times scepticism, they reckon it's far too convenient that at the last minute the OBR made changes to it's calculations that suddenly made their predictions more favourable to the Government's position.:

Surely you don't believe what a reactionary marxist organisation, riddled with corruption and bias, and driven by left-wing unionised ideology, might post in it's editorial, do you ?

The most worrying aspects of this are (1) that something we should probably expect to be 'secret' is on a system visible to more than 2 and half million people, including junior soldiers and filing clerks, and (2) how easy it was to download all this stuff onto a USB and walk out of the office with it. Do the CIA, FBI, and Department of Defense, ( they can't even spell correctly ), have any idea of how to secure data held on computers ?

I wouldn't go talking on a web forum about going into a shed with a tranny

On the Saints official site, this advert is directly underneath the announcement of the draw, why ?

Are we entering our reserves in the Scottish League now ?

It depends on whether Olly can be ar$ed about the cup at all. Remember Blackpool's 'weakened' team only lost by the odd goal in 5 at Villa a couple of weeks ago. Having watched them at the Reebok yesterday, and taking into account their excellent away form in general, one thing is almost certain, it will not be 'boring'. They are quick and fluid on the attack, keep the ball down, and will run directly at our defenders. Most of all, they play as a TEAM. This will certainly spice up my office tomorrow.

Am I right ?

Yes thanks, it goes with my grasp on reality. Before 1918, women could not vote. It was the way it was, and the way it had always been. ( See, an example of my grasp on history ).

I suppose if this conversation were happening in the 1950s you would claim that the London smogs were just a 'natural' occurrence.

Capitalism is like a bad marriage : "What's mine is mine, and what's yours is mine."

How ? Surely the US voting for Sarah Palin in 2012 is a far quicker route to Armageddon ?

A system based on primal human greed.

Get back to the Flat Earth Society forums.

For Dune, seeing as you are such a fond fan of Maggie, and so KEEN on Europe
