Clan: a grouping of related and /or allied families, whether or not they share a common surname. Nothing sinister about tartans.

Interesting perspectives. Correct me if I am mistaken, but I often get the impression that people in the UK do not move around the country as much as the average person in North America. It is not uncommon for a person to attend university hundreds or thousands of miles from home, or to relocate acr...

Regional assemblies in England: Wessex Assembly : Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire and Gloucestershire. The assembly might meet in Bath. I think Bristol or Exeter would be more appropriate than Bath. When I suggested over on CP that Gloucestershire and Wiltshire be attached to Wales, th...

The English don't have three arms and eat babies.

The Brits on this site could comment on these divisions, but here goes. Regional assemblies in England: Wessex Assembly : Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire and Gloucestershire.

I was surprised at the level of anger that was expressed concerning the position of the Scottish, Welsh and NI assemblies and the absense ...

The idea of sitting in a cinema for two hours while Al Gore gives a slideshow on global warming doesn't appeal. I'll rent the DVD. I wonder if the film notes the Medieval Optimum, The Little Ice Age, the role of water vapour in the greenhouse effect, the percentage of CO2 created by natural vs. anth...

I don't know if you came here just to have fun with everyone or just to fight with me, but this statement is something I want everyone to read a rebuttal to because it is a blanket statement and untrue as well. It is simply an accident that the first thread I came across on this board happened to b...

If only Creationists could move beyond the 17th Century, we'd be getting somewhere. 17th Centrury? *looks about her house, at her clothing, at her computer....* Do look around your house and ask yourself how it is that all those things exist. The business of science is the process of determining ho...

Tube worms eat sulfer and live in boiling water.
