As a blind person i can say i'm ok with my condition i get about my life just fine no problem... sorry strik that last bit i do have a problem... with people who think that because you have a disability you can not cope... Bhaa to them.
Some of them will look right at you just befor they knock you off your feet... and i'm the one thats blind and what makes people think that someone in a wheel chair is def?
Anyway its England v USA today so good luck to both teams.

If you think about it with all the problems that s@h has had with there being no work and equipment / softwear faults you could say it is a victim of its own success... with so much work that has gone out and the fact it goes back i'm not surprised that the system gets blocked.
You know what they say " You make the best of what you'v got untill something better comes along ".

Here is something to think about, when people complain about how our actions are hurting our planet they get up a petition to complain or object to the incident what ever it may be.
Now... all those petitions get put on paper and guess what... it comes from trees people... you are hurting the enviroment stop it.

How stupid is that?

I agree, we need to be cautious any E.Ts that might pick up our broadcasts and translate them will know quite a bit about us and may show caution about us.
Keep listening because if we do find a signal it will be years befor we decide to make contact ( if we can ) the more infomation we have the better but first we need to find that signal
