    I don't. It's cheap, nasty and far too full of smug in-jokes. And that is the best the BBC can do!
    Survivors was better, but not really sci-fi.

    It's about the only whimsical series that scifi has to offer today. No other series has any humor to it and I enjoy some humor every so often.

    Torture by strangulation, chopping off fingers and toes, electrocution, razor cut faces and on and on, decapitate, murder children so their parents will allow thenm to seek shelter in their homes, murder anyone and everyone with sucuide bombings. Yes, America is a very bad country isn't it.


    SAM you really like to only show one side of every story as usual. Why did you come back? Couldn't you get people where you went to like you there either?

    Dumping food on to poorer nations (i.e. free, subsidized, or cheap food, below market prices) undercuts local farmers, who cannot compete and are driven out of jobs and into poverty, further slanting the market share of the larger producers such as those from the US and Europe.

    Ah, I see. If we didn't give food to poor countries the local farmers would make more money and they could afford to feed their families.
    Ok, that's just stupid. Farmers are at the mercy of the weather and they need the food just as much as anyone else in poor countries. Whomever wrote the article didn't grow up on a farm.

    I'm new here ... I'm an atheist and I am not an American but I love America and Americans so I like this quote ....

    Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American G. I.

    One died for your soul; the other for your freedom.

    Apparently America is the only country that understands what a right is. No one has a right to anything a naked savage in the forest doesn't already have. You basically have the right to be left alone. How can you argue otherwise? How can one person claim to have a right that imposes upon some other person the demand that he provide it? What about he other guy's rights?

    Would a right to food imply that restaurants, grocery stores, and farmers can't charge for food? After all, they are only providing what we have a right to. On what basis could they justify charging for food if it was, indeed, a "right"?

    if you've known sam as well as you say then you should know that the majority of her posts are sensationalist propaganda.
    i'm about 1/100 of an inch of putting her on ignore because of it.
