This is just a test
Congratulations Grasshopper. You have done well. But to reach the next level you must master this:

It would seem Scientology are now as powerful as China. Here's a copy of an email I sent YouTube via their own site
I wish to protest your suspension of the XENUTV account. I only started watching them on Monday, and now they've been shut down. I believe you should explain your actions, because it makes no sense. These were legitimate documentaries and nothing I saw could be considered a breach of Scientology's copyrights.
Videos that have been up for years (posted by various groups) are getting pulled left and right on YouTube this week. If you feel like joining in on the global protest, click here

can I go one better? :
I bought a Philips 400GB HDD from Harvey Norman on Dec 22. Didn't get a chance to install it until Jan 12. I then realised it had already been installed previously and they had left some recorded items circa August 07. Those recorded bits wouldn't play very well (did the video equivalent of a CD stuck between parts A & B) and the bits I recorded were just as fudt. On Sunday morning (Jan 13) I took it back to Harvey Norman and said:
This is crap I want a refund. The player won't play properly and the unit won't record properly. It says on the box that it works just like a VCR but it doesn't. I can't just press record when I'm watching something and decide I want to record it. I need to go to menu and press various options - which is rubbish. Also, there's supposed to be a skip function that you can program to skip a certain amount of time, like a 3'45 ad break, and it will skip that instantly. But it's simply not on the menu. I've already got a Sony HDD and that's the kind of functionality I want."
To which the chap replied:
We'll send it back to Philips and see what they're prepared to do.
I said it had nothing to do with Philips since they were the retailler and it did not do what it claimed to do and I wanted a refund. He said that since I'd said the unit wasn't recording properly it must be broken and they'd have to send it back to Philips before they could do anything. And since it was holidays it may take a few weeks.
I relented, but it was only 2 days later that I realised that although he'd given me back my reciept, he'd taken back my HDD but given me no proof that he'd taken it. If he's on P he could just as well put it in the back of his car and deny everything!

be quick, this link will be pulled too, I'm sure ...
"For me it really is KSW"
KSW (short for Keeping Scientology Working): A policy written by Hubbard in the 1960's that requires all Scientologists to follow his words and his rules exactly.

You can't say I didn't warn y'all! The video has been removed from the TV3 website:
This video has been removed temporarily for legal reasons.
Yeah, right - by 'temporary' they mean permanent!!

TV3 have a copy of the Tom Cruise Scientology clip that's already been pulled from various other websites. Check it out now before (presumably) TV3 get the same letter demanding it's removal that the other sites got.
I won't pass judgement on the clip itself, you can make your own assessment.
For an opposing view on Scientology (ie different from Tom's) google Xenu TV. I've been watching their clips on YouTube all this week but tonight the account was 'suspended' by You Tube (no explanation.

I hate cats. They make me sneeze.
And even if I wasn't allergic to them I'd probably still hate them. I like dogs, but they stink. And they make me sneeze too.

If Neil's prediction is correct then that country will have been ruled by two families for 32 years.
28 - Bush senior only had 4 + Mr Clinton's 8, Bush junior's 8, plus a possible Mrs Clinton 8 = 28.
But yes to your overall point.
Heh heh -- but haven't the Illuminati been running the place for a 100+ years anyway?
And I take your point too Craig, but is it really a 'back room deal' when everyone seemingly knows about it and is resigned to it?

Can you imagine the privacy issues? :
A very nice CV Ms Gallagher, but I see on AdultFriendFinder you like watersports and married couples ....

I have a friend who works for a recruitment company. She said they don't actually check Bebo or MySpace pages, cos it's easier just to verify the references provided.
... and yet her company was still quoted once in the paper as saying they do check those pages!! (Hence her comment to me!)
