Mather, you are responsible on an international scale. You vote. You produce carbon. You are blaming me for you buying pills, not apples? What do you want me to do, exactly? March into the House of Commons and say: 'I am one of 70 million people who live in this country. I know that you probably have lots of conflicting interests...like people buying pills instead of eating apples because they are lazy and narrowminded...but I think you should stop buying oil from Norway.' Your view typifies why, for over 50 years, carbon emissions per capita have not declined, but have actually increased...People shrugging, pointing at a pot plant and saying 'What can I do? Talk to the Government. This is their problem.'

Sounds good to me =)

And yet a tiny change to your life could save a tiny fraction more carbon. And that tiny change you make today you might pass on to your children, and your children's children....Or your neighbours, or your friends, or anyone else you meet. And thus that tiny change has the potential to make a much larger change possible. Whatever Mather. You carry on doing nothing, letting other people, people like me, shield you from the harsh reality of your actions, suffering through the minor inconvienancies of not taking a pill every few hours... You carry on depending on other people solve the problems you create. Be they burying nuclear waste or sequestering carbon from the atomsphere. Don't you take responsibility...

Sigh... 'If I didn't go out raping, then I would probably go out murdering. So its ok.' No Mather, you are not actually allergic, you are uncomfortable...and you know something, too, the hell, flipping, bad. You sit there all high and mighty 'My country absorbs a million tonnes a year', great, I commend your country, but you, personally, do NOTHING towards that. You are no better than the fat American who thinks TV remotes are not just convienient, but vital to the continuation of life.

You can't avoid taking supplements? Are you allergic vegetables and fruit? Are you entirely incapable of eating lettace? Do you have a crippling illness that means that supplements are your only way of gaining the vitamins an minerals... As for 'covering my backside'. My carbonfoot print is negative, so actually you aren't. On a personal level, I am covering your wanton emissions...and personally, I don't want to have my hard work in reducing my carbon emissions offset by you being too lazy and narrow minded to pick up an apple once in a while and eat it.

Hmmm An American bomb dropped on a school kills 40 children and 6 adults. An American hospital saves 5,000 people. Ergo, its ok to bomb schools.

Hmmm....I would choose Spain...Muslims in Europe Unite. (seriously, Europe has been overplayed.)

That makes it ok then. Britain has a surplus of food, therefore it is ok to throw away vast quanties of it. Screw those African countries that have none, if they want more food they should just import more from their Empire, using their own European Free Trade Agreement to buy more from their European neighbours. Seriously Mather, 1 gram of carbon is still 1 gram too many.

Oh right, I forgot, those giant machines produce less carbon than the smaller ones... Or did you mean that because everyone else is doing it, its ok. I agree Heir Mather...Now how about invading Poland.

Mather....Don't you mean EFTA, rather than EEA. EEA is the European Environment Agency.

Mmmmmm What Ico said. (But Smoked food is considerably better*) Also, taking supplements isn't terribly good for you. Also adds a load of unneccessary carbon to the atomsphere in the synthesis/extraction, manufacture, shipping/transport of the drugs to you...where as going and eating an apple has the same effect on your body. Really, supplements should only be taken in hospital, when you need the supplements in a hurry. *As an aside, picking your nose and eating the result has been linked to a DECREASED chance of brain cancer.

Ah, true, but he only said smoked salmon the first time. Actually, it is probably impossible for norwegians to get tapeworms....Unless they are Norwegians too, in which case they would kill lesser mortals like us.

Well that explains it. You are grossly unhealthy with virtually no vitamins and minerals. Your body is crying out for all of the naturally good stuff, but you are just shoveling in carbohydrates and protiens to treat the 'Hunger' aspect of it. I mean, the only mildy healthy thing there was the Salmon...Possibly a shred of fibre and such from the Cereal, and raisins. (Raisins are mostly sugar) Also, 1 centimeter thick slices of salmon are not slices, they are steaks. ...I suppose it is possibly that you have caught a tapeworm from raw/undercooked salmon...lets face it, if you have a slab that is 1 centimeter thick AFTER cooking, then it is unlikely to have been cooked throughly...But I am guessing you had it raw/smoked because that is how salmon is usually eaten. Not an expert on salmon, but you should probably consult a medical professional. I assume by your 'I hate vegatables, fruits and potatoes' that this is a regular occurance and is not a one time treat. You seriously need to get over yourself and get a balanced diet. ...It is so tremendously easy to eat lettace...Hell, you can make your salmon steaks and put it between two leaves of lettace instead of bread. You could cut the potatos in half, mound them up with cheese and what not, and grill them (Not terribly healthy, but probably contains more vitamins than the bread) Yes, we can argue that your diet actually conforms to XYZ parameters and bread contains fortified this that and the other...but the fact is there is a problem and it is a problem with your stomach, or brain. Stomach problems are usually caused by parasites(See tapeworm), physical injury or dietry issues. Brain problems are probably best left to a medical professional.

Its in the title...

Basically...it was just me and Dusty (JUST, dream team more like!). Carrying on the Morroco-Castile-Algeria-Ottoman's game. Everything went well up till Brugandy's invasion of Algeria...Now one of the most powerful nations in Europe has a large chunk of territory in Africa. So Dusty is preparing for war with Britian...the obvious solution :thumbsup:

On...so... 4 slices of bread, some cheese, some raisins, useless filler(salmon...I am assuming the rubbishy wafer slices), Salami, some dough, some wheat/rye/oats. Something tells me that you were not looking for a snack in the first place... (Seriously, sandwich, yes, that is a snack. Handful of raisins, ok, that fits into the 'I walked past the cupboard and it looked good'. Gingerbread man pushes that theory. Dry Cereal then completely anhilates that theory, as the only time you eat cereal is when you actually want something filling.) What would have been infinately better is if you had gone to the cupboard, put two largish potatos in the oven. Grated some cheese, got some mayo, carrots, cabbage and onions, made up some colslaw, put a pan of baked beans on, got out some romanine lettace, tomato, cucumber and then made up some caeser salad dressing then have fried off some bacon and cut that up. That would have taken twenty or thirty minutes, allowing you to ascertain the full extent of your hunger. You would then decide whether to put everything away, make a nice sandwich to fill a snack void...or get the potatos out of the oven, stick them in the microwave for 5-10 minutes (more time in the Oven is best), given them a healty dollup of butter...and voila. Not only have you a meal that is filling and nutrious, you have made all the componant parts of many other meals. For example, you could fry/grill a pork chop, served with salad...maybe stick a pan of potatos on to boil for mashed potato. Or at least that is what I do when I feel hungry and I know I haven't eaten in the past 8 hours/haven't eaten enough.

You know what that probably means...You didn't eat enought to begin with.

There are various side missions, but there are no quick and dirty ways to get merits. Two reasons for this: First, you don't need 20 merits a session. Second, I don't need 9 people going 'I shoot at the enemies' for four hours so they can collect merits. (I say all humans are merits, er, enemies!) Third, completing missions in the simulator are totally useless as far as your government is concerned...so why they would provide you with upgrades is beyond me. Forth, bone to gun machines were never invented, nor would they be tolerated if they were...so killing 10 enemies provides no benefit for your Government. Fifth, your governments expect the mission to be done...Not forty little side missions (Its great that you replaced the water barrel on the cooler...but did you...you know, stop the ship from crashing?) Sixthly, your government expect the mission to get done without extra payment...You get fired if you ask your boss for extra pay for each time you got to the photocopier. I think thats enough to be getting on with.

Eating your own stomach is generally a bad idea.

This is just one of those crazy, objective, ideas of mine...But resonance means vibration. Vibrating the eye would cause small distortions in vision, which may account for the 'ghost' sightings.

Hey all, Dusty isn't gonna be able to make it. Anyone who wants to play post here in the next 20-30 minutes and I will host if there is more than 1 person.

Which part of the eye are you resonating with? If it is the Pupil, Iris, or the white bit then I wouldn't expect to have any effect until extremely high pitch/volume...at which point you would only get shaking. If it is Retina then I guess it would shake as well...possibly with some colour blending... Ultimately though, I can't see a major something happening...

Just want to point out that the lower limit for human hearing is for continuous sound. At 1 Hz you hear 1 beat per second. At 10 Hz you can still decipher each of the 10 beats per second. At 20 Hz you normally lose the ability to work hear the individual beats. Example: Download Audacity http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ Got to Generate Select Tone Set frequency to 1.
