lol
its me matt - im just a bit broken at the moment..I only have one eye that works as the other has an infection which has practically blinded me in the left!
makes things very disorientating...cant really think straight - very odd.
kinda makes me wonder how people who just suddenly lose their sight cope!

So, anything new?
Just kidding, hope you get your eyeballs back in full operation. My cat could probably symphatise with you more as she only has one eye.

If we took advantage of our hearing, would we be here looking for more to fulfill our hearing urges?

Wished more of the dog owners would shift the sh*t left behind that a dog does.
And also dog owners should be bannned from exercising their dogs on public parks their an environmental health risk.

yeah!
I was trying to work out just what the hell you're supposed to do for work if you're blind
I mean - I couldnt code or edit videos...it basically puts using a computer out the window..
wouldnt stop me DJing, i would still have my ears, though it would be interesting trying to find my way round my record collection, im sure it would make for some interesting mixes
2 unlimited into subfocus into armand van helden *facepalm*

Apparently there was an explanation somewhere else which I missed. I was wondering about it until I saw his joining date. then it all made sense.

couple of good points, which I'll have a brief go at then get back on topic :P
So because wars kill people, we shouldnt worry about murders?
depends. what is the ratio between deaths in current wars and murders globally? per country? per city? etc.
People dying of cancer is one thing, the reason they are dying of cancer is another. It is the reason that should be causing concern.
The medical costs thing: really not to sure about that. It is something smokers do say though. I think the gov's incentive is more through the billions of tax revenue from buying cigarettes rather than lower health costs. gov's are all about gains now rather than in 50 years time. At least, Australian gov's are.
Over here smoking is banned in most/all undercover areas - not really sure. It's ok in pubs as long as there is an outside area. Min purchasing age is 18, so youth "can't" purchase it anyway. Can sort of understand the hospital one from a hygiene standpoint.
Poor communication on my part. Not really the last sentence but also the gist of the post. you were complaining about a media beat up against smoking whipping up hysteria among people that have no clue but willingly accept anything put before them. While I didnt think about it at the time, the speeding thing is also a good analogy as well as smoking. What I'm definitely not saying is that dogs never killed anyone, they have. It's just not the cause for terror that it has been made out to be. Smoking does present real (and deadly) dangers, but as you have said, people with no idea have come out with pure trash against smoking (going to accept your word for this because I wasn't there). Same goes for speeding, there are definitely circumstances where speed can be great cause for concern (urban areas, shopping strips, schools etc). Speed and general driving attitude in these areas should be monitored. But dropping the speed limit of a freeway where there are no pedestrians to 80 (km/h), fining motorists and have the media telling us its for our own good is pure and blatant bs. It is three examples of the same issue, media beat-up. The vast majority of these dogs will have never hurt anyone, and will never hurt anyone. But they are painted as though every single one of these dogs is just waiting to kill its first child, which could not be further from the truth.
I do have to say though, that people have to be prepared to face the consequences of their pets actions. If their dog savages someone, they should be prepared to pay for medical and or face charges. Saying it's the dogs fault doesn't cut it.

Definitely agree.
Please clarify how dogs exercising in parks is an environmental health risk.
