    Economy 8 European Countries Write Off USD 40 B Debt for 18 African Countries

    I dunno how realistic such a method would be, or really how to implement it, but they should've gotten some kind of deal instead, that some investments they made (anything but military investments really) should have the same value deducted from the debts also. Or in some way force investments...

    Maybe it's time to agree that we disagree, m'kay? :-)

    Enjo Kosai (or teenage prostitution) OFFTOPIC about legalising prostitution

    Of course it's getting harder. I mean.. It's obvious, isn't it. I say it again, the hidden prostitution and trafficking has always existed. What do you have left to fight, when you don't have the "open" activity anymore? Sure, the hidden activity have probably increased since, but I definitely...

    Enjo Kosai (or teenage prostitution) OFFTOPIC about legalising prostitution

    I agree. Me neither. I do agree - somewhat - that someone who is absolutely bent on working as a prostitute, even though there are a lot of other options and they knows all the risks, should be free to do so. But I thinks it's pretty safe to say that probably about 99% of the worlds...

    Eurovision Song Contest

    Woah, hold your horses. Was just noting the fact she grew up in my town, where I live. It's a small world, and all that. I'm not holding it against her or anything! Didn't you notice the smiley, right after 'traitor'? You got no humor. :-) :D

    Politics EU constitution

    What I've heard and read, Turkey is very.. uhm.. split up. You do have a smaller very modern part, but also a larger rural part where much of the old traditions, etc, lives. And the gap between these two is supposedly huge. But as I said, not experienced it myself. I also wonder, given that the...

    Eurovision Song Contest

    Not really interested, but I saw a little from it this year.. Not my kind of music at all, although Ukraine last year was both pretty good and had a cool show. I also really liked Irelands 'The Voice' (1996 was it?). Sweden ended up way down this year, although that was expected. But I still...

    beer brands

    Falcon Bayersk! No other beer I've tasted have such a wonderful aftertaste. Other than that, it usually is something like Staropramen, Starobrno, Carlsberg or Heineken. And sometimes something obscure brand the pub has to offer, that I won't remember the day after. :-)

    Politics Should Scandinavia leave the EU and form a separate union ?

    :okashii: And so you wanna have closer ties with the US? :D I'm just kidding. But it's a little funny though.

    What do you know about Poland?

    I once had a bottle of something like that with me to a music festival. It had a twig in it. From a spruce, I think. I got it from my sister, and I don't remember from where exactly it was. I'm pretty sure it was either polish, slovakian or czech. I think the bottle said something about it...

    Politics Should Scandinavia leave the EU and form a separate union ?

    Indeed. Scandinavia was from the beginning only Denmark, Norway and Sweden, because of the tightly shared history beween us, while nordic also included Iceland and Finland. But I guess nowadays it's common to count scandinavia and nordic as the same. edit: Wikipedia about Scandinavia...

    Debate Do you accept easily criticism about your country's system or government ?

    I voted 5, 8 and 9, as they all were true. I'm actually really interested of how other percieve my country, good or bad, and I also criticise it myself often, as the way to utopia is to never be satisifed. :-) But people should also accept my views back if we're on the subject. And of course...

    Politics Should Scandinavia leave the EU and form a separate union ?

    I agree with Maciamo, in that we already exist as a natural union inside the EU (well, except Norway, as they're not part of the EU...yet). Even so, I don't think anyone in the EU would stop us from forming any sort of official 'union' inside the EU frame, that would harmonise the societies up...

    Greatest German contributions to the world ?

    Cars, classical music, philosophy and other. I missed beer for some reason, so put an extra point there. :sorry: Other being the electronic and industrial music coming out of Germany and it's surroundings, like (early on) Kraftwerk, and (later on) DAF, Nitzer Ebb, Front 242 (belgian), Laibach...

    Comics Which Franco-Belgian comics do you know ?

    I read and watched Tintin aswell as Asterix a lot when I was a kid. Also watched some Lucky Luke, and some Smurfs when I was really small. I've also seen one of the non-animated Tintin movies. It was very... uhm.. bad. :-)

    Abortion: Pro-life or Pro-choice?

    I'm all for a woman to choose. BUT, there should IMO be some kind of "punishment" (for both parties), especially for people who is just to damn lazy, drunk or horny to bother to protect themselves. There should be a really damn good reason to have an abortion, that's my opinion.

    Iraq War -- Illegal? Legal?

    AFAIK, there are actually no international law, only treaties and agreements, as within WTO, the UN and such. So, the way it is "illegal" is that it is going against a lot of those treaties and agreements that the US has once agreed to abide by. But I guess that is not as important when there's...
