| When totalitarianism started creeping in to every aspect of our lives just as George Orwell predicted in 1984. The amount of bureaucrats and the amount of notes kept on each person has increased as time as gone by, as has the number of laws, and the number of crimes invented. The end result is it is... |

Among Indians, virginity was not necessarily prized in either sex. Sexual experimentation was regarded as ordinary adolescent b... |

| I like visiting London and wondered if anyone there could accomodate me? I have Asperger's Syndrome so staying with someone else who has would hopefully be more suitable. I could pay £10 a night to stay with you and it would be great to have company. I've visited a lot of times and really enjoy the ... |

| I'm bored of the limitations being gluten free has. Unless I eat a gluten-free diet, I have virtually no physical strength and can't even walk more than a mile or two a day before feeling like collapsing. To eat this gluten free diet generally requires staying near home at all times because, of cour... |

| I'd like to share some memories. I feel quite sad about some of them. It's hard to explain. A road that went behind my childhood home. I'd walk up here, build dens, swim in rivers, go to see the pretty girl who was the daughter of a doctor and lived in an expensive house up there and run across farm... |

| I like The Hobbit. That's a good fantasy book. I also like the Tyrant stories by Piers Anthony which are fantasy science fiction. The Neverending Story is another favourite fantasy book. I used to read quite a lot of Stephen King and Dean Koontz but at the moment I prefer Thomas Hardy and other clas... |

It's got 15 pieces in it, both poetry and short stories. I've been producing them since dropping out of high school. I was for a sh... |

| Doctors would still be able to provide expensive, specialist treatments. Some would specialise in those treatments and have the equipment in their home/personal office. . Which would become, in effect, a hospital. And what if the patient were required to stay a-bed and be under observation for some... |

Hospitals never accept liability for mistakes without mounting a big defence. People who can't afford a lawyer are vulnerable in the hands of big... |

| My opinion is Romanians and Bulgarians are welcome here but I want to see a law passed that outlaws a majority of an area being lived in by one ethnic minority. When groups of immigrants enter a country and all live in the same area it makes them integrate less. If you compare Canada and America's c... |
