Secondly I'm surely glad I'm not in the UK if calling some of the "flakes" in the environmental movement Nazis would get me in trouble. There is no such law in the UK (beyond the normal libel laws). However, it does break Godwin's Law: "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one. There is a tradition in many Usenet newsgroups that once such a comparison is made, the thread is over, and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically lost whatever argument was in progress."

Gear? the recent episode was them on a road trip through some of the southern states across the pond.. Ah yes, what a great show... Obviously though, that episode was a mix of both reality and selective focus. Alot of what you saw in there was indeed real, but that doesn't mean that it's entirely representative of an entire nation.

Hmm, I was so disappointed when I got to the UK after watching Monty Python's Flying Circus. I thought it would be just like the TV show... 66 |
