Greenwich meridian anything to do with it?

Far too simple. :p

“OH, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet,
Till Earth and Sky stand presently at God’s great Judgment Seat;
But there is neither East nor West, Border, nor Breed, nor Birth,
When two strong men stand face to face, tho’ they come from the ends of the earth!“

The Ballad of East and West
Rudyard Kipling (1865–1936)

Gentlemen,

I have had a clean up.

Please do not use these forums to insult one another. If you want to call each other silly names, then find a playground somewhere.

Apologies to the majority who have been conducting the discussion in an adult manner, and please carry on.

Regards

We’re saying nowt.

I’ve just thought of one. :diablo:

Edit: Make that two…. :diablo: :diablo:

with common sense used it isn’t unknown

the young are psychologicaly easier to brainwash

say to an 18 yr old climb over there and rush towards a machine gun and he’ll stupidly view it as fun and adventure

say the same thing to a 40 yr old and he’ll probably tell you to ” get ********ed !!”

the forces rely on brainwashing and using it to thier advantage with the young

Yes, very eloquent.

The posting of mine that you quoted was actually talking about a flu pandemic and not a war, but don’t let that stop you.

I’m withdrawing from the discussion now, as I have a feeling that I might need to return to this thread in an “official” capacity at some future point.

Be nice to each other, and bear the Code of Conduct in mind – especially Item 5 – as you contribute.
