and now if they don't use it to the max they're fools. every representitive needs to make every speech and proposal in irish. translation needs to be requested at every meeting and of every document. Have you any idea what cost will be incurred? The EU has a habit of churning out enormous amounts o...

that was how i understood it, it's an organization of countries that practically each one brings its own langauge to the table...it makes sense to have a workforce that is as versitile as possible. but now Irish and English would count, and since you're required to learn Irish in school (there) if y...

and now if they don't use it to the max they're fools. every representitive needs to make every speech and proposal in irish. translation needs to be requested at every meeting and of every document. all those guys have to be fluent in order to have the position in the first place, so it's a matter ...

I have a mac, and yes, they are 'safer' but not 'safe'... If one really feels the need to correct info due to an email warning, g...

Rule #1 of politics: Conduct your affairs such that you can easily claim ignorance and feign outrage if the public ever catches on. I thought the first rule of politics was, "never get caught in bed with a dead girl or a live boy" anyway here's food for thought...I think the surest indica...

I haven't, and have no intentions of joining a pub session. session musicians seem to be a cliquish lot and that session is their outlet for some fun. I don't know, but in situations like that (not just piping...maybe even weekend poker) the group tends to be tight knit and derive their pleasure in ...

i'm sure the forum gets hit by robots, as does virtually everything else. I get approx 10-30 spam messages a day in my junk folder, and an untold number that are filtered automatically and I never see
