You know, I've never been on a sit-in. I've done a few protest marches, but never actually occupied anything. I'm not going to start at robson square though - those people look like hippy freaks on TV.

Sharpish. <oh and I've never received a penny of pay from any private sector source for any professional service. i.e. I exclude summer jobs when I was a student in the '60s and very early '70s>. I asked a question, I don't believe you will require an apology for that, but one never knows. The next couple of lines were plagiarized from what I thought was an old student comment, hence the smiley. If you inferred from that that I believed you have never given full credit to all sources you have used, I apologize, no such implication was intended. I do not doubt for one minute that all of your research was original, or that you gave the appropriate credit. I also note you have never received any form of renumeration from the private sector. One can only assume that you have been remunerated your entire life by the public one, namely; the taxpayer;) I apologise in advance if I am incorrect. |

I like to think I've been good value. Now, back to work for me, my wife would like a Merc and I am no good at shit shovelling. |
