Sorry to disillusion you, Suz, but ever since I saw the one where they claimed that the mark on the bone of a diabetic was from his injection needle I've taken the science with a huge grain of salt. You would have to literally be skin and bones to manage sticking the needle into the bone, those needles are so short. They are meant to go just under the skin. -- Marina, Frank and Nikki True, I know that the needles diabetics use are ver fine, but confess I didn't think about it too much.

Curing African poverty by raising money in the UK or US can be very useful
(if the locals down there are set up to feed themselves). Or useless if it promotes dependence. I've heard that much of the reason for poverty in Africa is that the warring tribes do it to each other. And then they kill off the meddlesome aid workers who are trying to feed group B. Which Group A wanted starved to death, so group A kills aid workers. -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org www.mormons.com "David Stevenson" wrote in message ... Here in the UK we have five channels of TV ["terrestrial channels"] coming through our aerials, two of which are funded by licence fees not advertising. Naturally they compete a lot.

Tonight for ten minutes we had a unique experience: all five terrestrial channels plus Sky One were identical, playing a new video!
