    Ok you resent it but you do see how you saying you rang these people is fine for you but doesnt hold water for other people. Thats not a dig at you at all though as I'm sure you understand.

    As for prove you wrong, you made the claim about ringing these people and what they said, maybe you can give proof of this? Devils advocate btw.

    no offence taken, point taken.... I can see the issue, suppose it is nature to trust oneself and not others....

    Oh yea , it is obvious that feudalism is coming back , things will go back to the way they were centuries ago , the slave-masters will eat meat and good food and the genetically altered vegetable crap will be for the everyone else , except this time round the food is forced to grow with chemicals so they don't get a chance to absorb nutrients from the soil , so the vegetables are not as nutricious as they used to be , all this is planned you know , the meat and organic food will be for the slave-master race .

    Obvious how?
    Why would they make special "genetically altered vegetable crap" just to feed the slaves if it's a feudal system, surely there are easier ways than deliberately engineering crap strains?

    Disproportionally large compared to what? The canteen? The safety division? A 150,000 year old nuclear war? Another car companies finance division? I cant see what you're getting at.

    Xerox make copiers & toners, and don't claim otherwise.

    ah robtri, I'm just takin' the piss. Lots of anecdotes are used around here and are usually jumped on by the naysayers as a load of whatchamacallit.

    I was just messin'. No offence meant. Good for the goose and all that ... ;)
