  1. I believe we along with other nations became prosperous because of our religion. I'm not religious but I owe some thanks to my religion as peoples lives revolved revolved around it more than nowadays. But I wouldn't go as far as saying people are stupid for believing such drivel a religion might spit out. It's not particularly their fault, they're just brainwashed. I think it's wrong that a Hindu can ride a motorbike without a helmet just so doesn't have to take his turban off.
  2. I vaguely remember you wondered why you aren't a senior member. There did use to be a mega troller on here, TheCircus i think was his name. Where's he gone?
  3. How do hardcore christians deal with the fossil record? Im sure I heard they all must've been on Noah's Ark
  4. If you're not in a rush to drive, an option you have is to buy a small, cheap car and get insured as a named driver. It could be a parent (or someone over 21 or whatever the requirements are) who can take you out. This is what I did, and after I took 9 lessons then my test.
  5. I was unaware I had joined in, though I started growing mine in mid September since it grows (and looks) so bloody unmanly-like.
  6. Ah yes the Poison Dart Rex
  7. Why would you bring back dinosaurs and introduce them to the wild? I would've thought ressurecting a dinosaur would purely be for scientific data. I wonder if something grown in a lab would have awareness or conciousness, else it would just be like a organic robot.
  8. MP, love my work but can sometimes drag.
  9. In my mind, people who love their work would do overtime to get a job done, and to see it completed. The decider wouldn't be the extra cash they'd earn. For you I'd say have a social life, and buy a cheaper car like a yaris.
  10. I am allocating hoses. For example we have 10 orders of the same hose but at different lengths, common lengths are 18.15m, 19.50m, 22.50m and 24.15m. If I add all these lengths up the total is, for example, 190m We buy the hose in lengths of 61.0m. So If I divide 190 by 61 we get 3.1. Ideally thats how much I would use but but there's scrap hose which needs to be kept to a minimum. I want to know if there is a formula I can use on Excel (or anywhere for that matter) to allocate the hose in the most efficient way. Thanks
  11. Simpsons. It'll take a while to get through those
  12. I enjoy some movies like Where Eagles Dare. My Dad loves ww2 history and has visited many of the memorials. We went to Point Du Hoc. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointe_du_Hoc
  13. I do feel slight sympathy for this man accused, I don't know on what basis he is arrested - unreleased evidence, or that CCTV of him carrying a suspicious object? He's innocent until proven guilty but even if he is proven innocent he's been branded a paedo. That made me chuckle. It's so true.
  14. Me too. It's not good rating yourself on a scale. If I did it would be how content I am. Meaning, if you are content it means you want little; you'd rather sit in silence than watch sh.t T.V like Big Brother.
  15. A typical jet engine might be around 20% efficient. Modern ones may reach 25% or even higher. A rocket engine is about 60% efficient due to higher temperatures. it would be interesting to see this engine's efficiency.
  16. YER JST SPELL WELL AND USE THE BETTER GRAMMAR THAT YOU CAN
  17. I believe in you jonalong!! Don't listen to these non-believers.
  18. My post might have been confusing. Although I asked how much steerer tube the stem will need, I actually meant how much the stem will actually take up. Thx The height has been found! Thanks Paul
  19. I get the headset bit now. I'm unsure about the stem though. I knew I had seen 31.8mm before, it's the standard clamp size isn't it? Any ideas how much steerer tube the stem will need? I can't seem to find the technical spec of it. Thanks
  20. I got new forks and the steerer tube is shorter that the previous. I want to make it work however. Its an XC bike. I asked CRC about components that take up the least vertical space on the steerer. I was told The headset http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=24980 And the stem http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=47923 Running a shim between the two. I've just realised how push for space I am. I need to measure, but I need to clarify the dimensions first. In the description of the headset - "Stack height 21mm including crown race." Is this the of height both inserts of the headset and the crown cap? Lastly, the stem has two measurements. "50mm Black 31.8mm" means the space taken up on the steerer is 31.8mm? Thanks
  21. what sort of cost will a decent setup come to for the rear?
