It looks like its Russian but ?
It looks like mendhak after a few adult beverages.
Da, Komrad, it's Russian.
(The .ru part might have given it away :p )
Ya I thought about that but Google is not being my friend today so I figured I'd ask you guys.
Thanks
It's French. Honest. http://messenger.msn.com/MMM2006-04-...ngel_smile.gif
It looks like a Hacked up search engine.
*cough cough*
If you click on the top link the next page(s) are clearly Russian.
Now I need to find a English to Russian translation site. :D
You mean Russian to Americanese, don't you?
Babelfish ?
No, real English and not that torn up language the you UK members call "English" :D

I see that took a while to register on your Americanised brain there RD, are you sure they're teaching you the correct thinking skills?Quote:

And RD, you use gloves to fight? I thought you were a man...
Well I know your kind of a pansy so I didnt want to kill you to fast :lol:
And No, England relies on the USA for backup and federal assistance like a big brother. If we didnt back you up and support you then you guys would be taken over by France :lol:

You could have at least chosen a country with a backbone, they gave their country to the nazi's on a silver platter.
As for you Yanks having this constant "Them and Us" attitude it is no wonder that the rest of the world looks at you with hate. Remember well that if you had to fight the rest of the world combined you would not stand a chance.
Besides, if your president attacks Iran, which he probably will, no other country will support you, including the UK.
The France reference was deliberate :D
Sure every country woud try to attack the US at once, then that would be called a Brute Force Attack? :lol:
I know we have to attack Iran as the rest of the world's countries have no backbone at all. We always have to lead the way, bail out countries with billions on dollars in aid, help protect countries (like kuwait when Sadam invaded. Short memory?), etc.
I would bet on us invaiding Iran and saving the world from their nuclear attacks but will the world be grateful? [sarcastic]But Noooooo! They only look at the surface of things. [/sarcastic] :(
I say we all boycot the US until they do what we say!
You guys dont have the power or influence to do anything about us. :D
Did you guys already forget the 4 synchronous bombings in England already?
What do we want? Nothing. When do we want it? Whenever ...Quote:

Ah yes, the typical american excuse for a war... "They might try to hurt us one day, so we'll hit them now. Nobody will mind, and residents of the country we are attacking wont do anything nasty back to us.".
Is this a good time to bring up the phrase "friendly fire" (strangely, only ever used when americans are involved), and "abandoned hardware in a war zone" (when the yanks leave, leading to the deaths of many of the allied soldiers who remain).
You mean "If you start a war with us, we'll attempt to defend ourselves rather than make more oil for you to take from us"?Quote:

Kinda makes sense to me, but hey, I'm not american. ;)
No, its more... "We are going to make necluear weapons so we can take over the world and if anyone trys to stop us then we will stop oil production."
:lol:

I believe that an objective observer would say that America will invade unless you have no oil or have nukes, or are a loyal puppy. Since Iran is not a loyal puppy, and has lots of oil, it needs nukes to go its own way. Of course, they will probably end up in the hands of somebody who wants to hurt the US, but at this point, the wheels are coming off anyways. America is too dependent on others. If those others decide not to play, we can't survive it for long. We owe too much, and we are too dependent on imports of all sorts. We can't afford to let important material supporters find another game to play.
:lol: Maybe GrammarLady.com is NoteMes other website :D
I think I'll move it to WE if you guys want to continue on the global topic. :)
The US has the technology top run cars on vegetable oil, ethenaol 85, water, electricity, and a few other forms of energy. We have seen the popularity of Hybrids skyrocket over the past year so I have no doubt that we can dramatically reduce our foreign oil dependance very soon. Especially as the price of gas is expected to pass $4+ a gallon and not come down.
I would love to see cars running on ~100% ethanol. None of this 75, 85 crap. It only takes a couple of minor modifications and any fuel-injected combustion engine can do it. Not only is it very environmentally friendly (only emission, besides steam, is carbon dioxide), it has a higher octane rating, and soon it will be cheaper than petrol.
Natural gas (LPG/CNG) is also more "green" than oil-based petrol but it requires more modifications and safe storage is more difficult than ethanol. Ethanol is really I believe the easy natural alternative to petrol and it has been proven to work effectively.
(I have no comment to make on US politics or military tactics :))
True as Bill has recently purchased 25% of a south western company that manufactures 85 or such. If Bills correct, as he usually is, then ethanol 85 will take over unleaded gas.
Sure we will still have regular gas but we wont be as dependant upon it, which is the common goal.
I guess it's valuable for the US as you kill to birds with one stone. Reduce foreign dependencies (oil) and decrease greenhouse emissions.
Biodiesel (vegetable oil) is also a great idea I think.
And for any anti-tree-hugger greenie-haters out there, there is another plus side too, apparently biodiesel smells like popcorn. And ethanol smells like vodka. Who wouldn't want that? :D
So you can get drunk off the fumes and eat popcorn all while driving and watching your DVD player...
Adds a whole new dimension to blinged up cars.
Protecting Kuwait AFTER they were invaded is completely different from pro-actively invading a country the size of Iran. Bush is playing into the hands of terrorists as any other middle-eastern country will begin to believe they are next and that the US will not stop until they are all conquered.Quote:

Just look at the head honchos of your government! All have direct links with major oil companies (shareholders, executives etc) so they are obviously going to lose money should the truth come out, and THAT is why Kyoto was ignored by Bush. Not because it would affect the US economy (it will affect EVERY economy) but because it would reduce their bank accounts. Such is politics I suppose :mad:
Hmm,... I need money so perhaps I should go into politics then. :D

In Soviet Russia, hyperlinks click YOU!
why is this in world events? lol?
I know, as I only needed to verify that sites language so I could do something in that language and it started a worldy discussion. :D
If we switch to ethanol, it better not be 100%. Better make it denatured, or somebody is going to think of adding an auxiliary fuel pump....you can imagine the rest (no more Kennedy jokes, please, that's old....until the next time).
So then its because of Kennedy that they regulate it at 85 :D

100% bioethanol fuel usually refers to ethanol with a slight amount of vomit-inducing additive (that obviously has no adverse effect on the car).Quote:

Screw the hybrid cars as the gas/electricity thing is just a fad. Ethanol is where the future is. Just ask Bill and he will school you on the reasons.
Because it costs a lot of money, people are afraid of change, and ethanol has had unfair negative publicity (In Australia, not sure about other countries).Quote:

Very bad idea as it destroys carburettor fuel systems and washes oil buildups from petrol[1] into the fuel filter, thus clogging the engine. Most mechanics blame this on ethanol, not realising the reasons behind it; and it was all over the papers, in fact it was probably the first time (in this context) that the idea of ethanol as a replacement for petrol had really been in the public spotlight. So it had a bad name right from the start.
To effectively replace petrol, we'd need to ramp up mass production of grain (I think it's sugarcane, or corn, or something - forgotten what) that can be harvested for ethanol use. This takes a long time to set up and would cost a huge amount of money.
Also, there might have to be money spent on educational advertising as well to gain mass public acceptance before making the change. Particularly here in Aus. So there's another cost.
Once a system is in place, I have no idea how much it would cost on a regular basis. I think Brazil is the only country that runs most of its car fleet on ethanol. My guess is it would be about what we pay for petrol now, maybe cheaper once it's in mass production. Oil can basically only get more expensive.
I agree with you, people need to wake up and see that fancy hydrogen fuel cells and hybrid electric/petrol cars aren't the most logical step. Sure they look impressive but really how much time and money is it going to take to roll out brand new hyrdrogen car designs (or whatever) for the whole world before we run out of oil? Compare to ethanol where basically only the supply infrastructure needs to be modified. Cars can be converted in a day at the mechanics, say at their regular service.
1. - Oil is not pure, alcohol is. Petrol leaves small buildups through fuel lines - these don't affect the performance but if you start running ethanol through there it will have a cleansing effect, thus all the grime buildups end up at the fuel filter and clog it.
2. - Just change your fuel filter regularly.
No way. You'd be amazed how much damage a ravenous pack of corgis gan do. "Phillip, Release the hounds!" :DQuote:
