    This is a precursor to these fee seeking airlines to start charging extra for the entertainment they provide. So the inflight movies will be a service since you can now bring your own.

    But wait, there's more. Along with paying for any baqgage, I'm sure they'll add in a fee…

    Terrible name. How about "Just another Eyesore"?

    Pointless fluf. Again.

    Companies are all trying to say "Hey, we care about the environment like you do so buy our stuff." But they don't come back and say that they are really doing anything significant to help.

    It is not enough that we all appear to care about what…

    I also wonder what the health risk was to her. Nothing here about that. Shocking what people get away with here.

    A note on Lonely Planet suggested that travelling overland to Iran was for people with a death wish. Do any research into travelling in Central Asia and you will find similar warnings.

    Too often we see people travel with zero clue about the political and factual issues on the ground…

    I'm worried that the community are not seeing the big picture here. We keep dismissing these people as nuts and losers, when we should be trying to find out and address the reason these people are ending up like this.

    Look the bottom line is that there are a lot…

    "Just a loser" This is the kind of dismissal that society gives these lonely people. And that is exactly why they snap and lash out. You just cannot dismiss an entire generation of alienated people and not expect them to respond in some way. Look at the rising number of…

    The girl was either very foolish or serious. Either way she needs help to see why what she wrote would alarm people. Of course 20years is an equally foolish response.

    But there is a frightening development here too. Big brother is not only watching, he (they) are ready to come…

    Second life worries me. 1. Too many people don't have first life sorted out, second life seems like an escape. 2. Bottom line this is another way to bleed money from us for something we really don't need. 3. Already there is a heirarchy of rich vs poor in the…

    People carry on with life. They have to.

    Look the reason people are snapping and killing people is that they have no lives that they are invested in. At least the Otaku shopping in Akiba are invested in something and that means, like what they do or not, that they…
