yea, my typing slipped a bit over the last few weeks, it'll pick up again =)
I don't mind criticism of my typing - that’s fine, its valid, Hubris Boy and I had a long discussion about this, we got on well by the end. On the other hand you cling to status symbols like as though it gives you some kind of elder status that I should bow before. Personally I think that’s pretty damn sad. The other thing that gets to me is the blowing smoke bullshit, goddamnit I’ve won allot of debates, against students, adults, uni students, I came close to cornering our Immigration minister for crying out loud, to say every debate I’ve had on here is blowing smoke is just silly.

Jag's age isn't germane except when he offers opinions about stuff he has little experience with--like firearms ownership, or the morality of engaging in business--then insists they be given equal weight with the views of people who have been around those blocks a few times.

Firearms ownership? That wasn’t the issue and you know it, whether I own a firearm o not is irrelevant to the fact that a gun-soaked society causes more gun deaths, a point you tried to refute until I got concrete evidence. Why should my age affect my opinion on morality of business? I own and operate one, I think my opinion is pretty damn valid, how you think you can substantiate either of those claims is beyond me.
For refrence, if i took on a second job, yes i could move out and look after myself totally, but i want to concentrate totally on my last year of school (which decides my uni enterance score). I pay for everything apart from accomodation, untilities, food and school fees, every piece of clothing, computer hardware, every time i go out etc, is all paid or by me. Mostly i'm saving for a Powerbook atm.
