American toilet design?

Same ones?

And odd, I've heard of ONE person ever getting them. Way less likely than any other problem.

You mean you can't do trigonometry in your head?

An American car can go round corners?!

What century is Australia in that they can't put out fires yet?

And why are your socks always @gmail.com? Makes you so easy to spot.

Stay away from the dodgy sashimi bars. One of the few times 'previously frozen' is good to see on salmon filet is when you're making gravlax.

Not if I can help it. One of my dimmer cousins tried bowfishing for carp. I don't think he ever caught on.

Some of them. Better than an Austin-Healey 3000 at least. It says a lot that BMC figured out if you really wanted to win a rally you ran a Cooper S and not a 3000.

If you grew up in the US in the '60s and '70s and weren't a wuss you got good at drifting. The first FWD car I drove was an Audi and I came near to killing myself before I got it sorted. Come into a turn, climb on the gas -- and proceed in a straight line toward the bushes.

Says the resident of a soggy little island...

Bullshit (as it were). S*it stinks from almost every animal. The exception is birds.

If we had fires, we'd have worked out how to extinguish them. Most inventors are Scottish you know.

So no answer to this bit then?

Get some of those military aircraft that can carry many tanks (as in the shooting kind). Retrofit them with water containers. Drop an enormous amount of water (collect it from the sea) on the fire. Job done.

How odd that hospital bed pans have no water in them and you don't have to hold your nose when you walk into a room where one has been used.

Then you need to get out more, as always.

Rabbit s*it doesn't.

Yeah, they invented Highland bagpipes, haggis, and golf. Now that's a leap forward for humanity.

Only way I can catch a fish is to swim underwater with a pointed stick. You float very very slowly towards it so it doesn't realise you're a living being, then STAB!

At least with FWD you can correct errors. Only professionals can correct a RWD fuckup.

It's pretty stupid when they have to find a moving thing to eat. Those that can eat either don't have to worry about finding another animal.

Those are easier to catch so waste less fuel.

My point exactly. The meat is recycled. Meat is vegetables which have already been processed. Would you eat food regurgitated by your friend/spouse/whatever? You're eating something that's come from another animal! Disgusting!

It tastes like dead stuff. No better than eating excrement.

I'd never heard of it before, but I had heard of them eating catshit, because apparently cats have a far inferior digestive system to dogs and only take a tiny fraction of the goodness out of their food, which is why if you have a cat it just eats constantly.

Only a terminal stupid would eat nothing but lettuce. You qualify.

But are stuck with eating lettuce or grass.

But since there are far fewer nutrients in the fuel, have to spend the entire f****ng day munching on the grass etc.

Most of us have much better things to do with our time.

Bullshit it is.

Consumed, actually.

Nothing regurgitated about meat.

You're eating something that's a stupid as you.

<reams of your pathetic excuse for a troll flushed where it belongs>

I've never experienced that. But I've never known a toilet not stink when someone does a s*it.

Ok, them too. But humans, dogs, and cats all stink.

Technology supercedes that.

It's a fact.

I've seen about 20 of them and they are always @gmail.com

Even without the address, it' damn obvious from the way you write.

They're nowhere near as big.

Show me what they're doing, I doubt it's anything like what could be done.

While I hesitate to jump into this scintillating conversation between members of the commonwealth, many ex military and ex-civilian large aircraft have been converted to firefighting air tankers. DC-10s,

747s, C130s (and before retirement military C-141s (could carry one tank). No C-5A's have been retired yet (they can carry two M-1 tanks). Neither have any C-17s.

In any case, the biggest problem with those is the need to land in order to refill the retardant tanks. That leads to long cycle times when compared with dipping helo's.

The salt in seawater may have deleterious effect on anything trying to grow after the fire. The retardants used generally include agents beneficial to regrowth after the fire.
