In much the same way that people that get offended watching something... and yet still watch it... just so they can see how offended they can get Always struck me as dumb tbh But hey ho - I guess I can see the dread fascination. One mans meat, another mans poison (same with most stuff really). Personally, this is it for me I am gonna draw a Gump line "That's about all I gotta say about that", as I find the whole situation retarded I don't think I personally insulted anyone directly (I try not to) - unless by calling something you like (are into) utter shite is insulting!? I guess it is... oh well, sorry Amigo, just my POV, which I am entitled to and entitled to express I will share it on this subject no more anyway as you quite rightly mention - this shouldn't even be my domain, sadly it appears to have made its way into my everyday life (and hence into my cross hairs) as during so many aspects of my day I have seen it rammed in my face - non stop feckin news, tv exposure and weird arguments about racism on a forum I frequent . As for stuff I am into - generally it is not offensive, does not make news or cause global incidents for absolutely dumb reasons (unless you are talking about our beloved 3 litre gas guzzling environment r*ping planet destroyers ) and people can call me dumb as a box of rocks for doing it for all I care :d. I shall stop feeding the fire, sorry!

YAY I knew someone would do it... Congratulations, you have fulfilled yet again Godwin's Law :d:d See: Godwin's Law (Sorry Jake, tis a Wiki link ) Sheesh. You are right, the atrocities that Hitler began is not in the same league, it is not even the same ballpark - in fact, it aint even the same f*cking game! What that nasty (yet clever) little manipulator did was nothing shy of sheer hate crimes - for the sake of hate, not racism (ok he let his hate of Jews get in there somewhere I am sure) - just pure applied hate with profoundly unbalanced logic behind it, and somehow convinced a nation it was all good!!! Racism is endemic in all societies - I have a good Indian friend originally from Gujarat, and he is one of the most racist folk I know :d, wake up call - every race is racist. Anything can be deemed racist - I mean - thank f*ck I don't get offended at Welsh jokes... they are Racist! OMGz!!! Oh Noz!! LIKE I CARE... p.s. not a personal attack mate, just my POV Anyone for a Beer?, this diet and no booze is making me all aggro

You could have your own section in the Tate Modern with those examples

I think I read that in a fortune cookie once!

I think the insanely knee jerk reaction to some non-representative individual Z-list celeb shenannigans is what everyone cannot believe. I am finding this hard to stomach - its like there are no other problems in the world, f*ck off and get a life!!! Jesus f*cking christ - kids starving, wars going on - mass murders fleeing justice, people dying in tragic circumstances... The racism thing doesn't even come into it.. F*CKS SAKE! Why is anyone watching this? Why does anyone care? It is shite... and as such should have the classic south park disclaimer every time it is shamefully broadcast: ALL CHARACTERS AND EVENTS IN THIS SHOW -- EVEN THOSE BASED ON REAL PEOPLE -- ARE ENTIRELY FICTIONAL. ALL CELEBRITY VOICES ARE IMPERSONATED......POORLY. THE FOLLOWING PROGRAM CONTAINS COARSE LANGUAGE AND DUE TO ITS CONTENT IT SHOULD NOT BE VIEWED BY ANYONE Stop watching it - if it offends.. just stop... stop STOP NOWNOWNOW... FFS.. stop feeding the fire... Why do people feel the need to be offended on behalf of others!?!?! Christ - get some of your own worries sorted ... *pop* - blood vessel. ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED? GAH..

Is this still going on? My ants have built a large colony and have formed a parliament and are discussing the finer points of lint farming!!! Know what I'll be watching tonight... (I hear there will be a vote on what is the most attractive, long or short antennae).
-
Interesting, but I would suspect that you *could* convince it that the wrong 'un was in fact the right 'un, and *it* has been doing it wrong all these years!

I wrote a paper on this in University once
-
but why is anyone even paying the blindest bit of attention to this pile of horse dung?
-
I wish the whole Big brother piece of crap would just die and go away. Never liked it, and it beggars belief the attention it is getting now... I mean FFS! Why don't people buy an ant farm? More interesting!!

I am not sure any insurance company will cover fences, unless someone claims 3rd party damages against you for your fence panel uprooting itself and embedding itself in their house/car... I dread to think what awaits me when I get home tonight - I hope my fences are holding up...
-
Lose the daft fins and fit a slightly more subtle spoiler and I think that car looks pretty nice! But I see your reservations about the engine bay hehe.

Makes you wish you could see more of the shiny suspension bits when you get them all new like that Did you get the EDFC option with them?

Many happy returns of the day Rosie Blow the froth off one or two (or whatever your poison is )

I have a character on Eve at the moment. Used to play Everquest, went to Everquest 2 when it came out - then went back to EQ1, got bored as hell with that. Quite happy with Eve at the moment though

Hiya, 4 LEDs are for the temperature control knob, not fan speed (trying to get the main temps lit up) - although I am using 2 LEDs for that one under high and one under low on the fan speed. I am using one resistor per chain of LED's - seems to work fine (I use a modified bulb holder with resistor attached to mount the LEDs). I'll look at sorting the diode out - I think I remember reading something about it in your guide now... (That'll teach me for mixing two different guides together on how to do the conversion ) - for some reason I thought it was only necessary to do the diode mod if you were using EL wire ... d'oh.
-
I haven't changed any diodes (other than adding LED's ).. should I? The other LED's do not exhibit this behaviour. As an aside I am using the four LED's in the temp control as opposed to EL wire (as with the button illumination). I *think* the resistors used are 390's (whatever was suggested in the guide).
-
Oh, just as a quick query if Heckler still watching this thread - since doing my heater LED conversion, whenever the lights are on (dash illuminaiton on) - the led's for the fan speed go very very dim (all the others are ok), then when the lights are off they go bright again - have I fooked or forgotten something?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Lee-lighting-filter-gel-106-Primary-Red-per-sheet_W0QQitemZ250073593222QQihZ015QQcategoryZ14984QQcmdZViewItem Any good?
-
Ahhh, righto. I got a big sheet off the dreaded fleaBay, and they are actually really good quality. Again, I can't speak for the red though. I think it was a company called liteopia or some such that were doing the gels, they answer questions so maybe you can ask them about your application. They delivered within 2 days, seemed good enough to me.
-
You mention using lots of layers of Gel sheet? Why did you need to do that? I used a thin piece of transparent plastic (some people use CD cases, I went for something a little thinner, tough plastic packaging - just about cuttable with scissors), then glued the ends of the Gel sheet to the non-visible bits and stuck it in place. Granted I did mine old faithful blue, so don't know the quirks of the Red. Maybe if you use less filter you can get a better effect?

It is possible for people to be nice to one another without attributing anything whatsoever to a belief in anything other than - well being excellent to one another. Not believing in any religion does not make you a bad/evil/weak person, in as much as believing in something does not make you a bad/evil/weak person either. I find it relatively trivial to gather unto myself the fundamentals of what is right, what is wrong - it is not that tricky, I don't need a book or a bunch of preachy folk to explain to me how to live?? - I follow the laws of the land (to the best of my ability), I don't impose myself on anyone, I gladly welcome people from all faiths and races to have a chat - just don't try to convert me, cheat me steal from me or kill me and we will get along fine If what you are doing upsets and or harms people, causes grief beyond its rewards, or is deemed illegal by the laws of the land - then stop doing it, take a moment of introspection, then go do something nice in stead . Wouldn't life be just peachy?
