  Re: M6 Crash
 
Well, I'm not a copper, but I do deal with motor claims for an Insurance company, and there are a lot of factors to take into account: Was anybody injured? Was anybody killed? Was there any spillage? Was there much debris on the road? Was there a (...) (23 years ago, 29-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: A Jeffers factoid or two
 
(...) Yes, and since there are a lot more voters in the center, in some ways I can't blame the Democrats for choosing to court them, pragmatist that I am. (...) Yes also, and lest you think that all Greens voted for Nader in November, some of the (...) (23 years ago, 29-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: A Jeffers factoid or two
 
(...) An undeniable truth about this, though, is that the Democratic Party is more likely to court moderate, center-leaning republicans than it is to try to embrace the far-left fringe.

  Re: A Jeffers factoid or two
 
(...) It's funny how around election time the differences were minimized, but once Bush was safely ensconced in the White House he felt free to push his right wing agenda. On the whole I think it is true that because of the realities of getting (...) (23 years ago, 29-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) I do a lot of work with TNC myself, and all I can say is the stuff they do is simply amazing- both on the surface and behind the scenes. -chris (23 years ago, 29-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: A Jeffers factoid or two
 
I hear what you are saying Larry. I few months ago I would have agreed. However, now that Bush is in power I am not so sure. Events last week show that perheps there is a difference between the the big 2: (URL) may well have saved the US $60bn tax (...) (23 years ago, 29-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: LDRAW memorial image site
 
Is it just me, or does this sound like terrorism? "If my demands are not met....." Shame on those (relatively few) of you who insist on making our hobby and community less fun.

  Re: M6 Crash

  Re: Rolling Blackouts
 
Although I have not read all of this I find this very unproductive. I am happy to be called "disruptive" if it means questioning those who make unsubstantiated remarks. I am sure those who make unsubstantiated remarks are happy that you are creating (...) (23 years ago, 28-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
