You eat food in uk.tech.digital-tv don't you?

Can I take it that uk.tech.digital-tv is in favour of world starvation?


Any Usenet group is first and foremost interested in the groups subject,
and this group ain't uk.starvation.

We as there is no uk.starvation group i just have to make the best of the
groups available. I just thought most of the people in this group, like
yourself, would be living on the breadline so I thought you might be
interested.

Anyway if you are not interested in Bio-fuel lunacy the sensible thing
to do would be to ignore the thread, I actually use that 'trick' myself if i
am
not interested in a topic, I find it helps me aviod reading a lot of stuff I
am
not particularly interested in.

I trust you will be administering the same admonishments to the numerous
threads
such as "Top Quality Citizen Lobella Flower Ladies Watch EW8973-16Y Minimum
Price Wholesale, Discount, Replicas, Fake"
Although obviously it wil take you a while to get through them all.

Obviously I can understant why you are uninterested in half the world
populastion starving to death
when there are more pressing issues in the world such as the DOGS on BB4.
etc.....

What has this got to do with uk.tech.digital-tv?
Nothing, but it's always fun to point out how the current green madness
is
causing wrong decisions to be made. Since we're all going to hell in a
handcart the details of the cart are probably more important than digital
TV.

OK. So long as you understand that this thread was started by a troll
as a crosspost with other groups and is therefore likely to become as
large as one of Angrymadman's **MORE**DOG********!!!! crossposted threads.

Says Mike Thomas, ~Troll king of Wales no doubt.

Personally I only read threads I am interested in, but I guess I am a bit
weird in that respect.

I obviously don't you posesss your plodding methododoligy of reading every
post regardless of whether I have the slightest interest in it in.
Still there are more than one ways to crack an egg.

Some idiots will believe any old claptrap, even from a well-known
troll, as long as it leans in the "right" direction.

I was going by the big item about this in yesterday's Times.

Did it say that biofuel has destroyed [more] land [that would
otherwise be] available for food crops in a couple of months than
global warming would have done in the next century? Or something else,
by any chance?

(Some words inserted in a valiant but vain attempt to make sense of
the fowl ravings.)

Seems like some overpaid moron w*anker scientist/enviromentlist
has got his sums wrong somewhere down the line.

It had to happen one day - you actually appear to be completely
correct on this one :-(

No, he's completely trolling, and also completely mistaken.

I'd be interested in the modelling you assume to make the link between
biofuels and world food prices.

Developed nations like the US must review their current policy of
diverting over 20% of their maize crop for making biofuels. The volume
of grains used for biofuel equivalent to a full tank of a SUV could
easily be the food supply for a person for a whole year! Some optimal
balance must be struck between food and biofuels. Otherwise the world
just might witness an epic battle between 800 million automobile users
in the developed world and the 1.5 billion plus poor in the developing
world living on less than $2 a day.

Yes, it's another own goal for the greenies. When will the world wake up and
realise that we are all going to be impoverished by this madness? nd don't
forget that if the west gets poorer so does the Third World.

If we don't educate a lot more scientists and engineers for the future and get
them into positions of power and influence, then *we* will be the Third World.

Surely tackling global warming is all about tackling overpopulation?

What by starting world war III?
GLobal warming is not a problem the earth is too cold as it is.
We waste billion of gallons of fossil fuels trying to heat
it.
Two of its ends are great frozen blocks of ice.

Global warmning is the messiah and we are spending billions
trying to kill the messiah.
