I agree with you, David, most of these opinions were expressed decades ago and were dealing with traditional England that existed, say until the early sixties, before the immigration wave. Now many elderly English people whom I know don't recognize the society they used to know, that's part of the reasons why some of them have elected to settle in a quiet retirement place abroad, for example in Dordogneshire, well as long as the rate of the £ would allow them to afford it.

very profound Aligot
Give credit to Winston CHURCHILL, de GAULLE, political analyst André SIEGFRIED, German poet Friedrich VON HARDENBERG, they all emphasized the insularity that permeates Britain's politics. The latter added that every Englishman is, himself, an island.

Superb, and written in typical WT style. Was it the same author who once wrote "is it suitable for JWs to own cats ?"

Thank you, Blondie, for your research work,
As for aluminium and cancer, though, connection between aluminium and urinary system, especially bladder, cancer, seems to be a well proven fact, not by the WTS but by scientists.

statistically flying is still the safest way to travel.
It all depends on the terms of the ratio you choose : In proportion of the mileage covered it's true but if you were taking a plane as often as you take your car, you would be dead thousand times by now.

Under french rule, it was called Dahomey. What I know is that it is currently famous for its harbour Cotonou, where european junk cars are shipped to be sold in western Africa

Obama's soles
by aligot ripounsous inno wonder obama won hands down, in an armchair, after voters saw this picture and made the comparison with the price of sarah palin's wardrobe.
imo, though, he is smart enough for having directed this mediatic coup.
and who could possibly believe that michelle, who most likely supervised his campain, or the girls, didn't notice what the condition of these soles was ?

life forms that can see stereoscopically (in "3D" or with two eyes, I guess) had an advantage over those that didn't.
That's quite clear. So, I understand that they first had to see in stereoscopy, and it was found afterward that this feature was giving them an advantage. But how could they see in stereoscopy in the first place?
evidence here that people should have learned in high school about biology.
You're right, my 2 kids are in HS upper year and I tell them that whatever they are taught re. evolution thay must learn so as to get good marks and their degree, it will be high time after that to make an opinion for temselves, because it is a domain which is open to opinion and beliefs, unlike gravity and rotundity of the earth.
