Re: Comfortably numb......
Did discover one bright spot about the new office overnight, the new TV and AV system has a wonderful sound system and the accoustics in here are great - I think the cleaners fled with their ears bleeding as I blasted The Wall for every corner

Re: Comfortably numb......
Not last night, Floyd's The Wall, suits my current mood then a mix of Rainbow, Bon Jovi and Journey. Can't plug my ipod into it so I need to actually gring a few cds in each night. Last night was some of the stuff I have on cds keep here. Tonight I'm gonna do the whole spectrum, Iron Maiden through to Gordon Lightfoot and back again

The possoms say they will leave your TEDS alone and behave angelically as long as you promise to visit one day somewhen in the future........
It wasn't THAT silly Please come back
How's things over there today? Watching footage on TV and it looks dreadful around the worst hit areas, conditions being made worse by snow and ice

Re: Comfortably numb......
What's giving me the willies is that friends from Britain & France are telling me to get the f out pronto, for the moment I'm sticking with advice from the embassy & the missus
Sir John Beddington speaking to the British Embassy in Japan:
[Even] if you then couple that with the worst possible weather situation ie prevailing weather taking radioactive material in the direction of greater Tokyo and you had maybe rainfall which would bring the radioactive material down - do we have a problem? The answer is unequivocally no. Absolutely no issue. The problems are within 30 km of the reactor.
And to give you a flavour for that, when Chernobyl had a massive fire at the graphite core, material was going up not just 500m but to 30,000ft. It was lasting not for the odd hour or so but lasted months, and that was putting nuclear radioactive material up into the upper atmosphere for a very long period of time. But even in the case of Chernobyl, the exclusion zone that they had was about 30km. And in that exclusion zone, outside that, there is no evidence whatsoever to indicate people had problems from the radiation. The problems with Chernobyl were people were continuing to drink the water, continuing to eat vegetables and so on and that was where the problems came from. That's not going to be the case here.
Any thoughts, anybody?
