richcritch I think that's a bit worrying. Very worrying in fact. I mean, having the potential, what does that mean? Any grad chemist could make a bomb! Could they be locked up? Anyone with cause to terrorise, eg not liking how much tax they pay, could they be locked up?

richcritch I've certainly not managed to find a way of bulking up my earnings by any considerable amount. I'm certain there is one, just not sure how! I'll let you know if I figure it out! Actually, second thoughts, I won't! And that's exactly why any advert that says...

mrsakai55 @mrsakai55 (54) • United States 9 Jun 09

Anyone watch the Brink episode on Discovery Channel about how electricity can be wireless. It sounds pretty neat. There is no need for wires to power your appliances or to charge something. It is all done wirelessly. I didn't get...

richcritch I over-clocked my last PC. The processor runs in cycles - a bit like pedaling a bike I suppose. Each time the pedals go round, you go a distance along the road - or get some calculations done in the case of a PC. However, if you pedal faster, you get rotations...

richcritch I just quit a couple of weeks ago. It's tough, really tough - but exercise helps a lot I've found. I also have the gum for when the cravings get really bad, but to be honest, I've tried not to go down that route unless I have to. It gives me something to reach...

richcritch Why? Are are parents not able to make kids do exercise? It isn't all up to the teachers in an already over-stretched curriculum for the time that is available.

Is it really possible that someone you met online can fall for you?

sharksfin @sharksfin (1091) • Philippines 9 Jun 09

I never really believed that love can flourish in the cyber world. I have seen "You've Got Mail" a few times and I find it cute. Just, I don't get how can two people fall for each other when they've never met. I mean, we can find...

richcritch I tend to keep them all on the computer. Every now and again though I'll go through them all and pick some good ones and get prints from Kodak or whoever. It tends to be that I only get pictures which I intend to put on the wall or something like that.

richcritch As long as your daughter can pay the bills, I don't see a problem. I don't like being without my phone to be honest, but it's not something I can't do without entirely. One day she'll realise that she hates the thing and can't wait to have days off work so she...
