I don't know or care whether that is a complment or otherwise..( my gut suggests the otherwise).. My only point in this discussion is that when the UK leaves , if it then seeks to re-enter , it will be under different terms and conditions. A point which seems to be escaping your British...

Zathlan, people are lazy ,They might want to do the right thing , whatever that is, but competition for attention means that there is always something more immediately interesting to do than walk down to the local school and wait in line. All the more so if they don't really believe that it will...

I have walk assist on the bosch active machine . Borderline useless.. if walking the pedals rotate and catch legs ,holding in the button is a pain , it's ok for 3 minutes but say for the 15 needed to cover a mile....

D8veh, I am sure that you are aware that just quoting a torque figure in isolation , without including the rotational speed is insufficient.... A 40 Nm device rotating at 80 rpm , transmits exactly the same power as a 80 Nm device at 40 rpm.

It would not be illogical to withhold benefits grants etc for people who without good cause, fail to show up at a polling station .. the local courts wil prosecute if one fails to show for jury duty. The effect would be a major increase in spoiled votes , but that's fair...
