(...) Now that is one of the most enlightening points of view on this subject I have heard in years! :) I must add though, that if driving is just a privilege (as you and so many law enforcers have said), then what would the state do if no one (...)

(...) I am fascinated by this thread. I consider myself one who is generally lawful and generally appreciative of law and codes of conduct.

(...) Oh come on Larry, it's quite clearly meant to refer to Sterling currency. In for a "1p" in for a "£". Mind you I wonder what we'll say if we ever take the plunge? "In for a cent, in for a Euro" sounds rubbish. (22 years ago, 21-Jan-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) Frank, I am not sure what you are seeing there -- I think it was my intent to be cautious about saying anything for certain about that instance of possible child beating. I did subsequently see the camera/video footage of the beating and if (...) (22 years ago, 21-Jan-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

I've actually seen the SUV ad and appreciated it-it was a good play on sweet and innocent girl doing the voice over against her actual words, much like the satire 'See Spot Run' cartoons I've seen in the past, in which Spot is not anything (...)

(...) Now I remember why I appreciate you in .debate (as if I'd ever forget...) ;) Not to give you a way of procrastinating... The fastest I've ever driven myself was 190 kph.

(...) I'm curious if this is a change in stance from this post of yours: (URL) 17688, you seemed to be willing to take action based on a single camera (granted, a video camera, but still, just from a single angle).

(...) I'm not scared, I'm not apprehensive, I'm just busy. Not SO busy that I wasn't willing to toss one post in, but busy enough that I wanted to keep it short.
