You make plenty of mistakes, and your version of "looking things up" often amounts to having a recollection of reading something once upon a time. However, you spend so much time surgically editing the messages you are replying to in order to create the impression that people are saying different things from what they actually were, that you are frequently able to declare victory to your own satisfaction. To onlookers it appears ridiculous, but I think there's a certain lack of self-awareness at work here. Or perhaps it is due to Aspergers Syndrome. The last description someone posted of that sounded very, very like Mixi. Is it another trait to not want to seek treatment? -- --- DFM - http://www.deepfriedmars.com --- -- |

I think that constitutes a personal attack, so he won't reply to you. -- --- DFM - http://www.deepfriedmars.com --- -- |

Ultimately, it is. What about putting your feet in a bucket of cold water, and switching a fan on? What about him putting his head in a bucket of cold water? JohnT |

Dave Frightens Me writes: Indeed, if they had been properly educated about how to deal with the heat, they needn't have died from it. An education would not have helped without the actual tools, such as air conditioning. Nonsense. There are plenty of ways to not die if it gets as hot as it was in Paris. |

Then you googled, hoping to find that you were right and I was wrong. Then you discovered that you were wrong, but you tried to extract anything you could from the page you mention that would allow you to save face somehow. I googled what? I found a statement that matched the high school lab experiment that I suspect millions of Americans are familiar with. |

If they aren't skilled enough to find employment with benefits while working for someone else, are they really skilled enough to do it on their own? That's my point. Most people who **** and moan about their wages and benefits don't have the ability to do better on their own. |

Note that I can own 3 cars and a lot of stuff that I want (never mind if *you* or someone else thinks it's useless) what you probably don't get is that that lifestyle isnt supportable. We need to consume less, work less and pollute less, Who are you to decide what others need to do? |

"The Reid" wrote in message ... Following up to Mxsmanic And yes my lifestyle is completely supportable. People have been saying the US lifestyle isn't supportable for over half a century and we keep improving. Any lifestyle is supportable if the population is not allowed to expand out of control. to support the US lifestyle across the globe population will have to start falling fast. Funny, but a lot of those people have been coming across the globe to the US to work, and be part of that lifestyle. Sounds like it's the thrid world and socialist lifestyles that aren't sustainable. |

You forgetting your European buddies Hitler and Stalin? A lot of people have a vested interest in an underclass that speaks no English. Mainly left-of-center politicians... |
