    Here I am sitting with one hand cupped over my PC's mouse - all I have to do is twitch my finger.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Welcome to the future.
    I've been living here for a while now.

    Thursday, February 26th, 2009 was the start of a pretty dreadful period for me - some inattentive idiot ploughed into the back of my motor, and, as came to light in the following months, managed to break my neck.

    I eventually ended up having surgery to install a titanium plate across several several vertebrae in my neck, to stabilise the fracture, and as a consequence I was fairly immobile.
    Had I not moved towards streaming a year or so earlier, I would not have been able to access decent music to listen to. Having such access was a lifesaver for me.
    Laziness, or convenience, showed its benefits to me enormously.

    Don't knock it!
    Chris



    Common sense isn't anymore!

    it was years ago and thanks to the titanium armour you can break a two by four across his back and he won't even notice. More of an upgrade really.
