I am a terrible speller, Ronnie (especially for a professional communicator), and an even worse typist.

PS: Even friend teucer doesn’t have a “.uk” in their email address. You from Across The Pond?

Oh no, Badgery Thing is on this post as well. I saw his comment on the main page.

There is something interesting about those Somali videos.

Justpbob, you made a mistake: school bues be turned off.
No offense, I just do stuff like this. I do agree with you though.

Badgery Thing, if you want to babble nonsense in older threads, I don’t really care, but don’t start popping into current threads and just make noise.

Siyad is the media!

Next you'll be saying that the Siyad is the message, chuck.

I see the UpChuck's missadventures in political convention coverage is in today's dead tree report.

Can’t you already get a ticket for idling your car unattended? Also, doesn’t your insurance refuse to pay out if your car is stolen or damaged if it’s idling?

Actually, I'm just yanking the Rat's chain a bit. We are not pushing for this ordinance, in fact, we didn't even know about it until it hit the news.

We do recommend that school bues be turned off when parked outside of schools. There is a state law that requires it, but it has no teeth. Some drivers let the engines run for hours, summer and winter. Not only is it polluting and a health risk for students, it's a wasteful practice.

Siyad is the media!

About idling cars in winter… the fact that I’m agreeing with The Rat shows this ordinance is probably a bad idea. In this case, I think it’s better to encourage responsible behavior rather than legislate it.
