Nothing to do with politics as far as I can see. I'm moving it to After Hours where it may well have been posted recently. I certainly recall reading (some of) it recently and I don't tend to prowl the web for fruit'n'nut cases so I probably read it there.

Yep, it was posted in After Hours before.

As for post 97:

I am a survivor of the worst railroad disaster in the history of Ireland (August 1, 1980)

Oddly enough I was there - I assume he's referring to the Buttevant crash and living only a few miles away in Mallow my parents (who on reflection may have had somewhat of a macabre view of good entertainment for a five year old) took me there for a look. I'm sure it was tragic for those who had friends and family who died in the crash (I'm assuming there were deaths) but there weren't bodies everywhere or anything, as I said, it was OKish to take your five-year-old son to. I suppose I'm thinking that the "worst railroad disaster in the history of Ireland" is a little dramatic to put on a CV as opposed to "I flew an infamous Pam-Am jet over Scotland and lived to tall scary tales about it" or "I was in the back of Ayrton Senna's car when it took a turn for the worse".

Still, bike rides, eh? Loads of fun.

Now if you'll excuse me, there are a pile of kiddies on the telly who reckon that Harry Potter actually exists (and have just managed to spoil the plot for anyone with a mere passing interest who hasn't read the hitherto available books) so, despite enjoying the books as I do, I'm off to perform the laugh I usually reserve for the weirdos who reckon there's a real starship Enterprise currently orbiting Saturn.

Yes he was refering to the Cork crash.
He also claimed it was an Irish Government conspiracy.
