No, its just the reason they know what to do with them lol. Kids aint as imaginative as they used to be…

Well, the way I look at It Is, If Aliens were Intelligent enough to be able to visit us, I would expect them to be clever enough not to make any attempts at proper contact with us. I think the question isn’t, “are they a threat to us” but “are we a threat to them” lol.

I think if an Alien race tried to make proper contact with us, some Government of military figures would end up make some sort of hostile move, following the “logic” of protecting Earth…

Also, If there were a hostile Alien race that was aware of us, I think they would have done something by now, and to be honest, if they are capable of vast space travel, they should be more than capable of destroying us, afterall, we struggle to get to the moon. Its not like what happens in these films like independance day hehe. Unfortunaltey these things very very rarley happen in that way in real life.

Haha nice!

Howd you get that job ?

I suppose seen as the Earth isnt the oldest planet about, there must be similar planets that were developed before ours. And in natural evolution, they would be more intelligent or at least more addapted to their environment then we our to ours.

Hello there mate 😉

Very similar to yours really.

Anyway, these days I think more people believe in life elsewhere, because of our bigger knowledge of space (even though limited). I think most generalised attitudes are stemmed from people judging the crazy like UFO spotters… Maybe some have visited, but not half as many times as people have thought they have seen them imo.

That was my first car… and fuck, I hated It. Dont get me wrong, I dont regret having it. As such… It held me back which is a good thing for a new driver. Being a young lad, I thought I was louis Hamilton when I passed my test.

Got alot of problems with mine though. HUGE problems. Would take forever to explain though, and isnt really relevant lol.

More on topic, dont get one. Its not nice to drive. The gear stick is 3m long, the interior is well basic, and the saftey is… minimal lol. No mod cons, not even an air bag.

I managed to get it on 2 wheels doing an average speed around a roundabout many times. Dangerous imo. Not to mention they have no grip with their shitty sized push bike wheels, which is not nice either. Not to mention the obvious lack of space. You will struggle to get a coat In the boat, haha. Not quite… but it is tight. Dont expect to have anyone wanting to be seen with you, or anyone wanting to actually spend more than 2 mins in the rear seats.

Id consider cars being my kinda thing. Well, an interest anyway, im not a mechanic or anything like that, but after spending huge amounts of time researching cars on the net for myself and my other part part time job, id say I could reccomend some good choices… Im no expert or anything though.

So what exactly do you need in a car? Being 24, and although Its your first year, insurance is going to be cheap really, as far as it goes when comparing a young drivers first year insurance. This leaves you with loads of choice.

If your after something in the middle of sporty, and practical, while not being a peformance car; I would say MK4 Astra. I know you wrote you heard a mate slate Vauxhall, but I dont know why really. My MK3 was really reliable, and was really nice to drive for a £500 car. It was the 5dr 1.4 version btw too, 1995. Yeah It wasnt fast, or even nippy, but It was good on fuel, and was nice sat at 60-70 on the motorways. Anyway, the MK4 is loads better, even the 3drs have loads of space for a hatchback.

They are quite common, which puts people off, but because of this, theyre cheap. At the moment Im selling my Saxo VTR. Im expecting around 2k for it. Im selling to get a 1.8 16v SRi Astra, for aorund the same price. Now with the Astra SRi I will get heated mirrors, Air con, sport seats, nice interior. Whereas the Saxo practically had the Wing Mirror as an added optional … Very basic, but fast nonetheless. Over all the Astras give alot more car for £ imo. Also, being typical family cars, insruance is good for even me, at 18. So at 24 you will be paying pennies.

I saw your after a 306… Now Imo mate, I wouldn’t go French. I know Its a cliche, but in all honest French cars aren’t the most reliable. They make cheap cars for the cheap market, using cheap parts… 306’s, being discontinued around 01, are definitely getting on now, and most are worn to fuck. No doubt their are nice examples though, but just be careful 🙂 Also, imo, I think they are looking a bit dated now… And you can get similar category cars, that are alot nicer all round for the same prices…

I can try and come up with a few more Ideas if you want, just tell me what your criteria is though.

Its someone elses problem how they percieve your opinions, if they dont like It.

I dont see how one person voicing opinions can do the scene any bad. Afterall, only an idiot judges on a group on the opinions of one.

Say this, I dont know what opinions n what not that your refering to, doubt they will be mentioned in this thread by you at least… I am curious though lol.

Ive been a member of quite a few forums, and I usually like posting proper discussion material, rather than one liners all the time. But sometimes depending on what forum it is and what the topic is, you can end up in constant fucking e-arguments with people who dont understand the concepts of debate or open mindedness. For this, Ive left alot of forums too…

Anyway, like I say, I dont know what your refering to, so…

Internet Explorer mate 🙂

There is a difference. Firefox 2 compared with IE 7… FF has a better interface. Loads “cleaner” looking, and more simple to use imo. It also has better security and has loads of features. Including Add ons that you can get, like Ebay sidebars ect.

IE 7 though, seems to be trying to hard too re invent itself, to be like other browsers. But their re style looks wank and is dodgy to use.
