topic tickler: 50 megs of icons must be one heck of a load of Icons! IP ... it would be a mass of icons a few years ago, but with an 'average' package of between 2 or 3 Mb these days it's not that big.

Yes...the reason it'd be politic to digress from the 'homosexuality' facet of the discussion is that some have an obscure impression [and wrong] that it is 'learned' not 'inherent through genetic pre-disposition' and such mis-information-fuelled debate would be less than PC and an affront to any of our members that are homosexual. Right on Jafo. I

Including a first date with 'Daisy' No Fuzzy, you're thinking of Nu Zulinders .... Anyone who has ever spent time on a station in Australia when it's shearing season knows EXACTLY what sheep-dip tastles like, 'cause everything is flavoured by it ...

As with the most powerful Formula One engines built, sure you could get 1200hp from 1500cc .....but only for two or three laps.....a sort of 5 minute controlled detonation. [Brabham BMW qualifying engine].Needless to say, the engine capable of surviving the full race length was limited to around 900hp. More or less OT. Errrr .... just a small poin
