    This. How many lives have been ruined because newspapers want to make money? It's ridiculous.

    Reasons not to steal cables

    Lad on the BBC website, self-confessed metal thief. We often read about the thefts, but never hear from the thieves! Picture of his burns in the link (not for the squeamish). http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-13678266

    Advice on the 17th Edition Electrical test please anyone..

    £850 for the 17th course? Your employer's been robbed. :shock: Anyway, it is all about knowing where to look for stuff. Use your common sense, and the index. Not getting the book beforehand must be the single most stupid piece of advice I've heard in a long time. Get it, familiarise...

    Something just happened in space..

    That's the thing, Micky's saying Prof. Cox stated that humans would become extinct, yet can't/won't find a source for it. I posted Prof. Cox's actual quote, and apparently that says everyone will die (I still can't see where it says that), and is stating it as fact.

    Something just happened in space..

    Still waiting for Micky to provide a quote from Prof. Cox which states humans will become extinct. Micky, I wish you were my lecturer. It'd be fantastic. I wouldn't have to state any sources for my facts, and I could insist the made up stuff was true. I'd be getting 100% all the time. 8)

    Assuming I think. Either way the mundane arguments on here are getting really dull. Few people seem to be able to put forward an argument without backing it up/insulting people. Which is a shame, because I'm assuming most on here are fairly intelligent but quite a lot of threads just...

    Optimum Calls Telephone scam

    Rebecca; with all due respect, a similar situation arose on a different forum over a year ago. Again, to do with the six/sixty-month contract. Why is it that customers/potential customers are hearing 6 months but the recording states 60 months?

    12kw water heater - cost for electric installation ?

    Have you ever stopped to think maybe that particular electrician who quoted £700 didn't like the OP's attitude? I think somebody mentioned it on the previous page. £700 suggests 'he's a pain in the backside so I'll quote high and hope he doesn't say yes, but if he does then there's plenty of...

    Optimum Calls Telephone scam

    Just so you know, Dominic Littlewood investigated something similar to this (though a different company) on Don't Get Done, Get Dom. He might be the person to contact for help/advice. ;) Good luck!

    Evolution for the human race..

    I remember watching something years ago that said the human race would be split into two: the intelligent & more well off humans would continue to grow taller, live longer, earn even more money and generally live a better life. The less intelligent, poorer humans would start to devolve...

    I was very careful with that and said most. The fact is, most immigrants are unskilled/semi-skilled. There's a difference between somebody who will spend their life doing unskilled jobs and someone who will spend their life living off benefits. The former are the people that I feel sorry for...

    That's funny, aside from being a student I'm also a qualified electrician. Most people I went to school with are plumbers/electricians/pipefitters etc. We're all 21/22. I'll admit there's been a massive reduction in apprenticeships, but that doesn't mean we have a whole generation who can't get...
