hypothesis 'hard to grasp'. You then go on to say that it is wrong.

Assuming that you are critical of me because you feel that I break your
rule that people shouldn't speak for other people, where does that leave
every political and social commentator?

Where in fact does it leave you? You purport to speak for me when you
assert that I believe that I speak for everyone.

Try again sober.


If you are unable to follow an argument it doesn't mean that the person
delivering it is drunk. There could be other reasons...

A demonstration of the limitations of democracy.

So what would you have a continuation of 405 line monochrome TV?

The successive stages of development of PSB in the UK were not, until
quite recently, determined exclusively by market forces.

Bill

So which side of this fence are you on?

A. Government should allocate all frequencies on the basis of perceived
need.

or

B. All allocations should be decided by tender.

obviously we actually have something somewhere in between

Something in between is fine, except that at present it's skewed towards
the free market and away from PSB principles. This country has always
had problems finding sensible compromises between market and public-good
principles. In the 60s it was too far one way; post-Thatch it was too
far the other.

Well, you seem to believe you can speak for everyone, so why not him?
Or does hypocrisy only apply to other people?

Perhaps you'd give a concrete example of where I've claimed to speak for
others? Or are you just making things up - again?

You don't. Thank gawd.

Likewise for you.

And a happy new year to you too.

True. You don't have to be drunk to talk rubbish.

You don't have to have to be sober to outwit someone who seems unable to
think logically.

(a) In parts of London it is now commonplace to see persons hawking and
spitting in the street. I do not recall seeing this in the UK until
relatively recently,

I guess you see what you want. Spiting happened all the time in
Southampton, probably still does. White male chavs with all the
appearance and language of being native British. I'm sure that type of
person can be found anywhere. Just like the racists and bigots!

You don't remember the "No Spitting" signs on the buses in the late 40's
and 50's, before all this immigration started.

And the sixties. That was due to rampant TB in the population.
Immigration started well before the spitting signs.
As for immigrants - that's what we all are!

They were certainly on the trolley buses in Reading in '60s.
