  1. well -*BAD WORD*-o pic, long time no see how ya been?
  2. "her come here come here come the badgers" that one is great
  3. anyways if you back up to the same HDD and the HDD corrumts you will lose all pe!@#$%^&*ions. IF you dont have alot left you can get a new hdd, and have it as a second drive.
  4. Global warming is related to air pollution. In this case, the main pollutant is carbon dioxide, but of course other gases also contribute to the problem. I disagree totally with the suggestion that we can't do anything about human-unduced global warming, and I disgaree that we aren't the cause. Although it is argued thet the earch heats and cools natrually, it has been seen in the polar ice caps. It can be agued for this reason we are not the cause however it is clear thay we are accelerating the process and that alone can have servere concequences fir the whole plannet. Much more climate change could shut down the gulf stream, plunge europe into ice age and turn the rainforest into a desert.
  5. -*BAD WORD*- YOU!
  6. will this have the same progres rate as subspace.net?
  7. sounds great, cant wait
  8. ahh now that helps, but why change the name so often?
  9. is agree with most of that there, however i feel that blair and bush have commited political sucide by going to war and no weapons have been found. You also say the UK is a european outsider, i wouldnt say that as a few weeks ago germany france and the UK, the 3 largest EU powers were accused of forimg an elite group to govent the rest of the EU actions. As i have said before the EU is mostly a trade group, nations have to obide by ciortain rules but can operate outside of the rest of the EUs wishes, as the UK did in !@#$%^&*isting iraq. Poliotically !@#$%^&*isting iraq was a good move for relations with the US however it was a bad move for support within thye home nation, and that i believe makes the decition to go to war a very bad move.
  10. the point is that nothing can be done because govennments are not willing to, the reason is the economy. I dont see the logic in that witb the US, they wont spend mioney cutting emmisions (although they consume HUGE amounts of oil) but will spend money goig to war with iraq without UN backing. Thats just stupid! they damage their economy with the war and damage the iraq nation in the prosess by not restoring law and order quick enough. It seems that the US will only do things that favor its economy and political power instrad of worring about the environment. Lets look at the uk insentive for a moment to be implimented in the future. Compinied are given a cirtain quota for emmistions each year which thay must keep to or recive a heavy fine. Compinies that are below the quota can sell credis to compinies who know thay cannot meet it. This aims to cut emmisions by somthing like 16% which may not sound like much but its a very big start. You also said about global waroming and air polution. Global warming is insulation caused bu "greenhouse g!@#$%^&*es" mainly CO2. A major toxic chemical is CO (carbion monoxide) fored bu incomplete combustion, emmissions of this are reduse by catilists in exhausts and more effishant combustion ultimatly creating CO2. Acid rain is another environmental problem, buring of nitrogen from the air, and sulpher in fules causes nitric and sulphuric acid to be persent in rain. This can reach lakes and soil and destroy ecosystems causing the carbon and niitrogen cycles to be disrupted causeg us even more problems. I think saving the plannet is mpore important then the US economy and political power, if there is no plannet then there is no US on it either.
  11. realign the sec 1 and 2 catepult images with the caterpult
  12. can we get to that from non ssc zones?

    wragth where are you then?
  14. lol name changes always confuse me, nooone says who they were before
  15. ok you lost me, who is cont?
  16. i did wonder wht your avater was doing there
  17. me? i think it is more like great minds think alike
  18. ok thanks, i was hoping to make all ships invisible for a subarenba im making in SSN FLAG-*BAD WORD*-, i was hiping tio make all ships completely black and no name tags por alternativle permainatly cloaked to make finding the nme that lil bit harder. Another thing with taking out blue font is the KOTH (if iots on) and the continuum logo will follow players still.
  19. mook i hiope your pot responcible for that ferret dance and that bager song is great www.weebles-stuff.com
  20. Is there anywwhere i can find a full tutorial on hoe to do settings for a subarena? i have no idea hoe to do them and id rather not crash the zone tring. Also, is it possible to make all ships permainatly cloaked, or make none of the player names visible at all?
  21. i think a ?macro command would be nice for switching sets ?macro=defult ?macro=event ...
  22. Global warming is reversible - but not with current patterns of land and energy use. It will take *more* than 15 years to confirm that global warming is occuring but that is not a reason to avoid action now. Solar energy will be *more* viable if we invest money in it. But it will never provide the same amount of energy as fossil fuels. That may not matter if we use energy more efficiently than we do now. That is where I believe our efforts should be concentrated - energy efficiency. Nuclear energy will be viable (including politically viable) if/when 'the oil runs out'. In any case - define 'viable'. New technology, economies of scale, better efficiency and supply/demand issues can rapidly change the unviable to the viable. As for previous changes in power sources. It is virtually impossible to learn from the past in this situation because we have never had a problem like this before. In any case, those previous changes were often unexpected. One day all of a sudden civilisation gave us iron, coal, trains, electricity, radio, internal combustion engines, rockets, computers. Nobody....NOBODY....knows what will be next. How on Earth can anyone know what will be viable in 5, 10 or 20 years time? References: Precautionary Principle Post-normal Science Monte. ok it may take 15 years but considering we know it has happend, and the possible effects of our emmisions its surly best to do somthing now before the "possible" damage becomes proven and also irrivercable. Also using less fossil fules will save oil reservs for use in plastics because when oil runs out plastics such as ployethane (more commly called polothene) cannot be made, the we will have alot of problems.
  23. Ok granted about europe balancing power. The main reason the EU exixts is for trade, its just like the OPEC group who collectivly control oil. It just happend that in thses groups the countries will act in some cases collectivly in the intrests of the group as a whole to maintain its stabili!@#$%^&*y and make sure that oone counter does not act in a way to damage another in the group. Its just unfortunate that the UK didnt stand with the rest of then EU on the iraq issue.
  24. Well it is for this topic, they say lets stop all terrorism but they convenianly ignore israil and the palistinians. The simple reason is israil are a fault and the us makes alot of money selling them millatary hardware.
  25. accually is said that 1 in 10 people being gay is way too common to be a coincadenc (new scientest a few weeks ago) Btw it is also legal in denmark (no surprises there) On the topic of children, children need a mother and a fater to be raised correctly even if they are seperated, 2 fathers will just screw them up.
