But in this century I think we are going to see some pretty dramatic changes. I think we will see the indefinite suspension of ageing by the end of this century. I think we will see quite dramatic accelerations of the potential of human intelligence in this century. |

ASBOs and London trams (Dec 03 2004 23:44 GMT) - I'm not a big fan of the ASBO system (Anti-Social Behaviour Order, one of our infamous Home Secretary's many schemes) but, given the one they have imposed on Camden Town by which they allow the police to move on groups of troublesome teenagers, why don't they impose one on a patch of ground near the tram line west of Mitcham? |

BAN THE HALF CHRISTMAS TREE! (Dec 03 2004 23:42 GMT) - You know there are all sorts of things in this world but I have heard it all today. Today I was asking Classic Court how she was decorating this year for the holidays and she told me she was not going to do a whole lot.

All funds collected will be used to help a needy amateur photographer get a new camera that he (hopefully) will not forget to check the settings on before attempting to take photos. ;-)... |
