    heres a little trick you can try if you have todays indo.

    turn to page 4 and look at the bottom section-
    headline reads -"warning should not be taken with a pinch of salt"
    and then goes on to say that were all eating too much salt

    now turn to page 16 -
    left had colum - "in brief" - "take advice with pinch of salt"
    and goes on to say that it could be dangerous to eat less salt.


    brilliant,
    all i can say is do whatever you want,
    these idiots cant even agree with themselves.

    ;)

    The only thing funny about the indo is that it calls itself a broadsheet.

    oh and Dilbert, much better than Doonsberry (spelling) in the Times

    on a slightly different note, when exactly did the indo turn into a ****piece rag?

    Late 90s I believe

    Anyone else remember how many mistakes were in its Weekender mag when it came out? For about a year it looked like a 6th class christmas newsletter re spelling etc

    I'm up for a bit of pedantry now and again, but that, my friend, was pathetic.
