i don't think cuisine will do much or even do a thing to our health at all. nutrition imbalance can be bad and sometime deadly to anyone, favor any cuisine in the world.

i have no idea on its OS because i have never used it yet. so i will not attempt to criticize the OS. but the look from what i see, i've got to admit that the first one on the left look really ugly. even i am not a mac fan, and i don't like mac monopoly, but this kind of product design will and can never beat iphone for sure.

some people really afraid of the truth, but not afraid to do it(in the dark).

but then
why not think that the documentary help promote your tradition then let the viewer decide rather than blind them, then ask for their action which i am wondering. will it be based on...what? base on the information people has never receive?

i will probably never get a standalone blue-ray player/recorder. i might possible get it when it come with my next tv or computer. but if i have a choices i don't see a reason why i want it.
i prefer portable hard-drive for backup and carry around. with internet speed that get faster and faster today, i buy/download hi-definition movies online rather than buy/rent a dish.

i was in that country during Thaksin in power. I think, it is not as easy as many think. "just give them election" will not just work! at less for this time.
we have seen election just over a year ago and the winner didn't win it that much. Then they try to bring back Thaksin. and they end up being in trouble them-self because that upset the anti-corruption portion of the country and the opposition parties also keep bringing in all available law to deal with every PM candidate for the past corruption and vote buying cases. which was very truth and very effective tool to deal with thaksin and his people. every one in that country know how corrupt thaksin government was. it was just onone can do a thing when thaksin and his people in power. thaksin was the law himself (with unlimited supply of money). it ended up that a small group of parliamentary representative from thaksin's camp switched the side. and a small group is enough to bring down pro-thaksin government.
when the anti-thaksin won the first round, now we see the pro-thaksin come to town asking for their right.
if the anti-thaksin government step down, we will see pro-thaksin celebrate for a while and they will try to bring thaksin back to rob the country again. next we will see anti-thaksin back to town doing just about the same thing as we see today.
yes, Thaksin got a lot of populist programs like cheap medical care, loans and other financial breaks. which brought in a lot of support from the north and northeast. it sound good too, but if you see it in detail, you will find that the bid winner in "all" of those good government project ended up being taken control and managed by either thaksin family, thaksin and friends business until some people couldn't take it any more that was the begining of anti-thaksin campaign when I was there.
it will always be those gain and loose. and thais act just like what the word thai really mean that why all of their government can please only their own divisions, not the country as one.
election won't help any more until some consensus on how democracy should work has been sat and most importantly "agree" by both side then the parliament can lead the country as a country. Not thaksin's country or anti-thaksin's country.

that interesting, fist you say it like "non-confrontational" is the way to go for you but next you come back and comment about the society that afraid of confrontation. i don't really know now if confrontation or non-confrontation is your perfecting choice.
face it, some people don't even care even if they know some of their action bother another. that why the law is there to prevent thing from going out of hand.
and in the real world we are living, if it is no law telling people not to smoke in public and someone try to tell you to leave or stop because you smoke. i am sure you won't leave. people can always find a reason to keep doing what they want to do with out "care" of other.
that bring me to the next point you made.
it clear that people have problem with smell from smoke. that why they complain, and you later use it as a point to say that they "complain about the smell" and that give you a reason to say something like you don't care.>>
what about if you don't smoke in public or if you can keep all the smoke within your lungs when you smoke in public, then no one will get bother by the smoke and smell, result in on-one will "get out of their way" and tell you any thing that might piss you off.
happy ending solution, non-smoker won't be bothered, smoker won't be pissed.
