What, that you're a pizzle head, couldn't agree more... Lets face
it, your to thick to find a proper NNTP account and have to be a
google groupie, not only that but you can't even work out how to
use pop/smtp email by the looks of things either.

That tried that in the UK in 1974 IIRC, as a result of 'Teddy
boy' having a spat with 'Mr Gormless', all it resulted in was a
mini baby-boom...

Not when arse-wipes like you go out of their way to troll me,
want to be treated civilly then learn to treat others civilly,
otherwise you just get favour returned.

Can they? All listeners? Is the BBC also proposing to extend the DAB
service areas and distribute free DAB RXs? ...and make all the stations
stereo on DAB, etc? :-)

I wonder what DAB coverage is like in the areas were the fraction of Gaelic
speakers is highest? Perhaps someone reading this can say or point us at
the coverage maps.

Your F and d keys seem to be interposed. 8-]

Slainte,

You might not be a raving Scot but it *is* your Culture, and if you're
not Scottish by birth then you hardly have the right to an opinion.


Would this also go the other way - are 'native born' Scots also denied
an opinion on 'English matters'?


Ah, the West Lothian question raises its head.

How could you do that? There are so many channels. And people would just
watch DVDs. And anyway, why are you better to decide whether someone should
watch TV on a Thursday that that person themselves? More nanny state!
