    RE: Pornography! ! ! !

    Don’t worry Saab, there is no harm in a little bit of idealism.
    Quite a refreshing change, actually.

    RE: My thoughts on security

    If you remove the gun from the marshall, how much more effective would he be than your average have-a-go passenger in a sticky situation?

    Okay, maybe a bit more effective – but looked at in a cost/benefit context, a gun-less marshall seems a narrow choice.

    Although they would still have weapons like tazers and batons, there is every chance such weapons could be taken off them by a group of militants.

    RE: My thoughts on security

    Hi MSE – welcome on board.

    You made some good points, although I do have resrvations on two points:

    1. Sky Marshalls – I think there has to be a study to identify whether the benefit of them is proportionate to the risks involved. I also think there are some psychological issues involved – the marshall will be given the power of life and death. There might be an equal risk of the marshall flipping as of him saving everyone.

    2. Whether or not a pilot opens the door is impossible to legislate for, because it depends on their psychological makeup. Some will, some won’t. The ones who will are not necessarily bad pilots, they’re just human.

    RE: I’m scared of Global Thermonuclear War 🙂

    The ship was carrying Scuds to Yemen for North Korea.

    The Spanish intercepted it and handed over to the Americans. They have now released the ship and allowed it to continue, because Yemen were purchasing Scuds legitimately from North Korea.

    RE: post mortem

    Guys, you are missing the point. Your own sensibilities are not at stake.

    The fact remains, everyone involved gave their consent freely. If a person consents to be publicly chopped up after they die, and a doctor agrees to do this, and there is no public sefety issue, I do not understand how anyone can have any reason to object?

    The morality of it all is strictly an issue for the doctor and for the specimen before he died.

    RE: Should Alan Shearer be called into the England squad?

    I think he must be recalled.

    Heskey = donkey
    Smith = idiot
    Defoe = unproven and inexperienced
    Vassell = the best chance, but still too unproven

    He is the 2nd best striker in the country. Who is better apart from Owen?

    RE: Pornography! ! ! !

    I don’t agree Saab.

    Frankly if a marriage is as weak as you describe, then porn is more of a straw breaking the camel’s back rather than the actual problem?

    Besides, having sex is entirely different from making love.

    RE: Pornography! ! ! !

    T5 – try searching for “lace” on Google. Porn’s out to get ya!

    Also, how do you define “harmless” ? What if it is harmful, but consesnual (like smoking?)
