| Omigosh! Queers might get their precious feelings hurt in America! That's so awful compared to everywhere else in the world! What an ignorant thing to say!! It's tantamount to saying "Omigosh! Who cares about poverty in America and the fact that your economy is going down the crapper? Other co... |

When I lived in California, I had two separate arguments with college students who insisted that Rome is the capital of Romania and that the US only shares one border with another country. I'm not kidding. |

| Kind of funny that the GOP has no interest at all in the rest of Catholic dogma, such as the parts about taking care of the poor and whatnot. God only knows that they certainly don't believe in the Christian ethic of it being "easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than it is f... |

Never mind that for twenty years the actual science shows that ulcers are caused by a bacteria (H.pylori) and that ulcers can be cured (not just managed) with an... |

| It's no different than me pointing out that today in Edmonton it is +5 Celsius, when the average high temperature for today is actually -7 degrees Celsius (with an average low of -18). That, in and of itself, is not proof that the world is warming either. Indeed, even the fact that Edmonton's winte... |

Shell Canada is converting its Montreal refinery into a storage centre for gasoline, diesel and aviation fuels, spelling the end for the 76-year-old facility after it failed to attract a buyer.
