The future

There was no mark on his body

Not on the outside…which of course was all that mattered in those pre-CSI days.  One has to admire the cleverness of the assassins, cringe-worthy as their methodology was.

how many time i do not do what i want to do but do what i dont want to do

The amount of solar panels needed will depend on the intensity of the sunlight received as does the efficiency. Solar energy is said to be a lot cleaner than energy collected from coal, oil or nuclear energy sources, because there are no pollutants released into the air. Through technological advances which are displayed in Earth 4 Energys instructions and information guide, these solar power systems have become attainable to the common man since the price has decreased steadily. It also has become a possibility for us to produce enough solar energy to actually sell the extra amounts back to the power companies, to make a substantial profit.
What government needs to do is back off the money. This will make companies have to look at alternative and innovative solutions. They will have to improve their product to a price point that people will accept. I mean, they have the easiest tag line any company could ask for. No sensible person wants to actively pollute the environment, but money talks, and so we agree to use coal power in exchange for the cheaper price. In the long run, our government is just loving us all.

WW1 for sure, battles of Paschendale or Gallipoli (coming from a biased ANZAC point of view there)

I saw Gibson’s gillipoli and it reeked. oh god it was bad…

This isn’t impressive at all. Spain had little where to go but up. They’re still Portugal’s black-sheep cousin (and Portugal was a 3rd world country 19 years ago). It’s not like he took a “great nation” and made it “greater”. After all, twice 2 pennies is only 4 pennies.

And the same could have been said about Canada when you speak of it’s economic growth. :wink:

@TG:

Yeah, those “hard” deadlines for one. cough cough

OK, I was saying a “US-style” “hard” deadline, rather than the “UN-style” “you’ve got 15 days…ok 60 days…ok 1 year…ok 12 years” “hard” deadline. Ya got me :roll: …

Re: “survival of the fittest” I meant DasEwokSS’s suggestion that its ok for powerful nations to swallow weaker ones because that’s somehow the natural order of things. May work for Ewoks, not for humans. I assume he was being tongue-in-cheek…
