Yep, we need to allow people to have a chance to grow and to grow up without intrusive scrutiny...WTF is wrong with people? Several papers report on the appointment of a "naughty school boy" to one of the most senior positions in education. |

Perhaps they want to use Roman, or (ancient) Chinese, or (ancient) Japanese, or one of the other character sets representing digits.... (not forgetting that some of those sets do not contain a zero character, cope with fractions etc.) I hope such people realise what "fun" they would impose on themselves as they moved back in time and have to re-invent their system of arithmetic and mathematics. All the while most of the rest of the world looks on bemused. Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

Ya Think? Recent reports also show that the repeal of a Florida law in 2010 that required condominium buildings to plan for repairs may have also contributed to the collapse. |

And what happened to all those British drivers? There are stories that some international hauliers have set up a second base on the mainland, and re-trained (and re-certified) their drivers as Irish drivers. That gives them direct access to the whole 27. |
