could anyone who is attending the special meeting on october 7 arrange to tape record it?.
it would probably not be that hard to bring in one of those mini-cassette recorders and at least capture part of what is said.. i am sure others who are unable to attend the meeting would be interested in hearing a recording.
and if it turns out to be a "historic occasion," it would be nice for the world to have a document of it.. comment
Is this oh-so-exciting event only scheduled in the USA? Haven't heard anything about that in Europe so far.
If so, I guess it means The End(tm) isn't going to come real soon now. Phew! Or maybe they have received new light and will announce that "beast" status will be reassigned from the international U.N. to some US-based evil entity, such as Pizza Hut.

ever heard that song?.
"lord, they were dancing down at the kigdom hall".
"lord, they were swinging down at the kigdom hall".
Oh, that's interesting. I remember one of Van's songs with the lines:
"got Watchtowers and Awakes for free
down at the laundromat for you and me
but you can't take me down that way
as I'm not sinking"
I just can't seem to remember the title of that song, possibly it's "A rose in Spanish Harlem". Funny to hear that he actually has a little bit of a JW background.

edited: just dug out the record - the song's called "Contemplation Rose", and I actually got those lyrics right.

future widows of america: write your congressman.

The INS (Immigration & Naturalization Service) could have vans ready to take non-citizen Muslims to federal facilities while their passage home is arranged. Then we need to expand that good work to include non-citizens from Islamic countries - we can review VISAs, university admission records, employment records, etc. and begin sending these people back to their comfy HOMES. An appeal could be made for Americans to report to the INS anyone they suspected of being a citizen of an Islamic state.
Uh-Hmm.
Nathan, quite frankly I like that idea much better than all those about full wars against this or that suspect country with no real idea about the enemy. Specifically, fantasies about turning this or that area into a parking lot (what's that obsession with parking lots anyway? Any psychoanalysts here?).
Even though I cannot imagine that anything remotely similar to "your" plan would ever be implemented in the USA, I wouldn't care _very_ much if it were. That does not mean I would not call it abysmally stupid and wrong, but hey, let people mess up their own countries if they like, let them wave their flags and babble about how free and great and god-blessed they are. Okay with me, as long as they keep the Napalm and nukes at home.

...but that isn't quite right. I am suggesting that we throw out all Muslin who are not citizens of the US as if they were suspects, which they all should be considered to be.
Oh, Nathan, you seem to have so many answers. I have a question. How do you know that a person is Muslim?
Dark-coloured face? Beard? Ask them, "are you Muslim"? Suspect country of origin? Suspicious looks? Crooked nose? What if he is, say, a British citizen? A German citizen?
I'm sure you'll come up with another brilliantly simple answer. We all need simple answers these days.

is evolution a fact or a theory?.
i suppose it depends on what you mean.. evolution in the sense of change from one generation to the next seams to be fact.. is well observed that offspring from a given creature will differ from the parent in different ways and thus after many generation can come to be quite different.. also that the genes of a creature can be affected by radiation from the sun and be alter in a novel way producing new and unique features in its offspring ( as long as the mutation is in the sperm or the egg).. that we came about via changes in the genes that eventually created a very different creature than that existed many generations ago , is that a fact?.
this requires that not only that there are changes between generation but also that these changes could be directed by different environments to such a degree that only certain specialised features could survive and reproduce offspring whilst other creatures have died out and only remain in fossilised form.. what evidence is there that such environments can and have existed?
(my translation from german): .
"dear parents!.
i have been notified that the verdict i have received, has been approved by the court and that i will be beheaded this evening at 6:30 pm.
Another life lost to the altar of religion.
Naeb, I enjoy your funny postings, but here you're talking complete crap.
That was another life lost to a regime of people which aimed to kill everyone of the wrong convictions or even just the wrong parents. Those who refused to join the ranks of the Wehrmacht faced a travesty of a "fair trial" and got executed.
Without his religious convictions, this Mr. Uran, if he existed, would have been sent to kill Allied soldiers and probably get killed himself.

p.s.: TOH: and what's your point in posting this? Care to comment, or will this be another of your hit-and-run posts?
the swedish paper expressen september 20, 2001.. we were ordered to become americans.
the other night swedish fighter planes patrolled our skies.
according to the defense ministry this was a link in our heightened readiness towards terrorism.
A REAL voice from Sweden ...
Right, TR. Let's just declare all those who disagree with us un-real. They don't exist. Or if they do, something surely must be wrong with them. They probably hate us.

p.s.: No, I don't agree with the article in most points. I just don't understand why (WARNING: sweeping generalisations ahead) Americans, with all their overflowing pride in nationality and their belief in America as the free-est and mightiest nation in the world, have such a deep craving to be loved by everybody on this planet.

I hope for the Aussies sake they are not all as fuckin stupid as this moron. The IP address 210.50.10.176 is HIS IP address, LOL! And the open posrts are HIS open ports. Talk about being a "computer expert", LOL.
ROFL! This guy doesn't even qualify for "script kiddie" status, and that's a low standard by any measure. I guess he's still scratching his head and wondering how you could run a Web server on port 80 without that port being open :-D
OTOH, I hope your ISP has been applying the regular II$ fixpack-of-the-day :-)

i appreciate the words of another poster who commented that he felt it unwise to post in anger.
i have tried to hold calm and keep my anger in check, but that started to change with my nato posting yesterday.. i am set back over 30 years: i was raised to respect all races, and not to be prejudiced.
i was also raised a proud american, and that it was important not to tolerate bullies.
They want you to be afraid and come to thier level.Judging from this board, they succeeded.
Success would be a euphemism, judging by this board.
Try to have faith in the concept of 'silent majority'. I'm not sure if it works, but I'm trying.

they have been able to name all 19 terrorists within days, their addresses and other particulars.
they have also linked them directly and/or indirectly to bin laden.
they have been able to trace hire cars used and flight schools.........all within days.
then they were already known to both israel and the US as terrorists. Why would the US govt allow them in in the first place?
Many US citizens seem to be unaware that foreigners coming to the US have to fill out a bizarre green immigration form, I-94W, with a row of about 10 checkboxes. Unfortunately I don't remember them too clearly, but (no joking!) two of the questions read almost literally like this:
X) Are you seeking entry to engage in criminal or immoral activities? [ ] yes [ ] no
X) Have you ever been or are you now involved in espionage or terrorist activities? [ ] yes [ ] no
I think this makes it absolutely clear how the FBI knew about these terrorist activities :-)
