Does this signal the end of YouTube?
Sorry, but I believe they should be the one telling you that. They don't have billions in assets for not taking action.

I agree with Viacom, but there's pretty much nothing you can do to more enforce copyright laws, due to the immense number of ways around them.

9/11 Evidence?
First off, we have both those scenarios in one scenario. And then we have several other factors: -We have two planes that took out about 9 floors of each building. The WTC's were built to be supported by there exterior columns aka the fả̮̤̉ade of the building, this way they could practically eliminate all supporting columns that would disrupt office space, excluding the core. -The plane blew off a very large majority of the fire proofing, knocked out core and exterior columns. And destroyed all the sprinkler systems in the impact zone and above. -Jet fuel ignited into huge fires that were ragging infernos not under any control. -These fires did not melt the steel trusses that pull the weight from the exterior columns to the core. They simply softened them. Softening the steel caused disruption in core columns and then eventually the columns buckled. The rest is just gravity and kinetic energy. The exterior fả̮̤̉ade columns fell out since they were no longer held to the steel trusses, and the trusses aka the floors and the core fell in a pancake effect. In fact, 30 stories of the core remained after the North Tower collapsed, but later fell from the immense pressure it had suffered. And even though there were no buildings before that that had ever collapsed due to fire, there was a 30 or so story building in Madrid, Spain that partly collapsed in 2005 due to arson fire. The reason it didn't was because it used a different construction method, it was made of concrete, it was supported by concrete columns, and so the fire did little damage. But the fire, which burnt a little under the same degree as the WTC one did, did indeed soften steel trusses in the building, which was discovered after it partly collapsed, as the steel was deformed and sagging over the concrete columns. Oh, and it takes around half a year to gut and and prepare a building for control demolition. And that's a 30 story one, the WTC's would take roughly around the same time with little gutting. During the time a building is being prepared for controlled demolition, columns have to be removed, and during this time it would've been impossible for the two buildings to stay standing with 20,000 people coming and going and occupying them each daily. And then on top of that, we have elevators going up and down constantly, and plumbing as well. And then to hide all the evidence of explosives and cut beams on top of this from the tenants would be impossible. It would be impossible to predict the planes effect on the building, and to plan explosives in advance. Also, the so called explosives which are just dust puffs, aren't even strategically planned. You would not need explosives past the point the buildings began to collapse because kinetic energy and gravity takes care of the rest. These dust puffs do continue after the building collapsed. The theory is just bogus, and a laugh to those in the controlled demolition business. Thermite is also impossible because no such thermite technology exits that could cut beams the way they propose and have the building still standing able to deal with day to day activities and stress. Didn't notice magekillr had beat me to it. His explanation explains the physics side, it's very well done. :)

Best Country?
Well, by Svalbard you mean Norway. And I wouldn't call safe, because my favorite animal, Polar Bears, inhabit that archipelago. :P

9/11 Evidence?
The photos and videos shown of WTC7 are those of the northern side, which was furthest away from the Twin Towers. This side looks like it expresses no signs of extensive damage. But another picture not shown on conspiracy websites of the west side of the building shows an 18 story gash in the lower southwestern corner, and this caused a huge fire to erupt. The fire engulfed pretty much every floor, or at least damaged many crucial ones. Later on that day the fire chief looked at the building and had a feeling it was going down, he told his men he wanted them out of the building, and so the fires raged unfought. Larry Silverstein then gave the command to "pull" the building, a term meaning to bring other surrounding buildings away to minimize damage, it does not mean to detonate. Conspiracy websites show the video as a few seconds shorter than the full version. Why? Because they don't want to admit to the footage taken of the eastern mechanical penthouse falling into the building, bringing down the western mechanical penthouse, and then the whole building. Also, any puffs seen in any of the buildings, like in WTC7, are nothing more than large objects like elevator equipment and such falling causing rubble and dust to shoot out broken windows. My directions on the sides may be slightly off, but you get the point.

9/11 Evidence?
There is no 9/11 conspiracy, I will personally debate every tiny spec about the physics of the twin towers. I will disprove any evidence of "controlled demolition", but I will have to wait till I come home from school.

Paintings (56k Warning) Update 3-11-07
Hearts, Yin Yangs, Peace Symbols, Unicorns, Fairy Princesses, etc are all very trite and kiddish. Not in all cases, but most who know art won't respect a painting of hearts to the same level as that of a flower in nature.

Sprichst du deutsch? - Do You Speak German?
im german and no german would talk like that but nice try. you basicly translated english to german word for word wich doesnt always make sense in german :P the correct translation would be: Hallo ihr. Ja wir deutsche verwenden Dialekt/Jargon. Es ist die gleiche menge an Dialekt/Jargon, wir sind nicht so unterschiedlich. Ich spiele auf deutschen servern. Auf Wiedersehen und danke, Garrett Nichols I stand corrected. :) Maybe I should focus more on German than Swedish, then maybe I would know better. :P

Paintings (56k Warning) Update 3-11-07
The two figures in the nose rubbing one have flat and out of proportion faces. On the other hand the flower one is very nice. Might I suggest looking at some Impressionist work, it seems to be your calling. Try experimenting with colors compliments to achieve highlights. You would excel in nature, especially if you experimented more with color and light on an object. I would suggest anything by Monet, especially his Lily Pad and Grain Stack series, Degas' ballerinas, and Mary Cassatt's woman, to use as guidelines, then apply that to nature. BTW never do trite images like the copyrighted Jak figure, and usually hearts as well.

Dutch Runescape?
I don't know about you, but I feel like the German Runescape was a bad and useless idea. And I think it would've been a lot smarter to make a Dutch Runescape. Or turn the 6 (2 F2P 4 Members) Dutch worlds into completely Dutch versions of the game in nederlands. What do you think? And what about Swedish, Finnish versions as well? Though i feel Dutch is more a priority since we have so many users from Belgium, the Netherlands.

Gerard was hot in this, which is weird because I didn't find him the least bit attractive in Phantom of the Opera.

dieing.... its underestimated
I don't think we ever look at the true reality of death in our day to day activities. It's possible to die at any moment in time, and in almost any way. We generalize death as happening after living for 80 years or so, we don't look at it as equally as possible of happening tomorrow as it is happening in 80 or so years. But that's a good thing, we can't live a life worrying about death.

dieing.... its underestimated
What was the point of that? Why does one set of cirumstances make it out to be more tragic. Death is death. How it happened or why it happened doesn't detract from the impact it has on a person. So please, don't try and make this into a competition. You're both as 'helpless' as each other. Neither could prevent it. Neither were held responsible to prevent it. Both should be equally mourned. You are right that death is death in the long run, but how that death occurred can greatly affect said persons involved. For instance, your grandfather dieing peacefully in bed is not as bad, you were expecting it and you could maybe even bring him back as a vegetable if you wanted. But your mother trapped unexpectedly in a situation with almost inevitable death and you can't do anything is a lot worse. And it's going to affect persons directly involved on a much higher scale for probably a much longer time.

I half believe in spirits. More so technology and nature can be weird. Especially technology. I mean, once my strobe light blinked twice without even being plugged in, so yea, technology is weird.

That's definitely not translated through a translator, the grammar is too precise.

Daylight Savings Time?
Looking at an official chart, the rest of the world (not sure if that includes Canada) doesn't change their clocks for a few weeks after the US does. Won't this screw up international time? :| Also, since technology didn't switch, and we had to manually switch them, does this mean that in a few weeks they will switch again thinking it's DST and we'll have to switch them back?

Attraction and Revulsion
Umm... Why? They're just not sexy to me, if a male stripper came to my door, I'd laugh. Yet, a female, I find their body shape a lot sexier. Why, muscular guys have a sexy body shape. Especially the back and the chest near the neck. And where it gets smaller at the abs.

Actually diseases are good and very important to evolution believe it or not.

dieing.... its underestimated
Try knowing someone who watched helplessly from their house on TV their mother die in the WTC's trapped in the smoke filled 102 floor of the North Tower. And not even knowing when she would die from smoke suffocation. Now talk about feeling helpless.

What piercings do you have?
I have none, and I probably won't be getting any either. After seeing a friends 'Prince Albert' I decided it wasn't for me and my extreme queasiness.
