sigh, so a bunch of people are going to trample all over the penguins isolated (for a very good reason) to make some shelters for a bird that comes out of the cold water to warm up (which is why they stand rather than lie on the cold ground.)
once a long time ago even trees grew on Antarctica, yet the penguins are still with us. They have their own way to cope, and the last thing they need is a bunch of idiots stumbling blindly though their lives (most birds will not return to a nest tampered by humans, penguins have nests though most wouldn't recognise it as such if they even looked really hard with expert assistance and bright yellow paint.)
As to this aphrodisiac effect, WTF? WTF? Lets give aphrodisiacs to our kids and then wonder why they are too lazy to go out and do normal things? Really WTFFF?? Way to reduce a population.
As to sounds that repel [the seals], what does an animal do if something just keeps annoying them, they eventually get real pissed of, take out their shotgun and blow it away. WTFFFFF are you thinking?
these people self righteous idiots see a small part, just a spec of a story they think is not to their liking and think fixing that fixes everything. It doesn't, most likely will introduce two or likely more new things that now need fixing.
These domes are a new pollution in their environment, so you are replacing one "perceived" problem with a definite new problem - these domes will fall apart and add litter (which some little birdies may eat), these things will rot their components and literally poison the very ground these animals need, and once again that's after a bunch of wankers first went through and kicked down their houses.
Sadly foolishness isn't the problem - we've always had it and always will.
it's letting it abound, even championing and praising it is what's really wrong.
In this there is not "no wisdom," worse than that it's the polar opposite!
after many otherwise intelligent sounding suggestions that achieved nothing the nice folks at Technet said the only solution was to low level format my hard disk then reinstall my signature. Sadly, this still didn't fix the issue!

Thanks for doing the sanity check (and making such a good job of it). It was a task I wasn't looking forward to.

Okay, but can you understand how the average 76-year-old with one good eye, infected with rabid curiosity, might stumble over the lack of apparent connection between MDV and Nelek ? 
Can my acronym be DALI ?
cheers, Bill

Considering it's France, all Apple needs to do is claim it's phones are having a work-slowdown or are on strike. Possibly supply a little yellow phone cover for each, too?

I got a root scaling done without anesthetic today because I didn't want to wait to be numb.
That's how bad I wanted to be away from people. It wasn't even the dentists visit. It was that there were people everywhere (it's a large, busy office)
David Bowie must have been thinking of me when he wrote I'm Afraid of Americans (and Rebel Rebel for that matter but that's a different story)
I don't regret the sore mouth, as I am back in my lair sooner than I would otherwise be. Meh.

Not wanting to be around people isn't paranoia, it's perfectly normal.
There's a probably about the same number of people who want to be alone most of the time as those who can't be alone for long -- and an equal split for each grade betwixt one and t'other.
Thinking you're a nutter, when all you really are is just another human, is the only craziness going on, here (there may be an element of narcissism involved, but that ain't insanity, either; it's a survival thing).
The grass is not greener. You can take everyone's word for that.

Well no. What you're talking about and what I'm talking about are two different things. I'm referring to the paranoia - the feeling that those around me are out to do me harm or otherwise have ill intent, and are taking special interest in me.
I'm diagnosed schizoaffective, Mark. Despite your comment, I am not making up my mental health condition, and suggesting I am is uncalled for.

Trying to prove you're paranoid? I did nothing of the kind.
Telling someone that they're worrying about nothing is not an accusation of anything.
Besides, with any "mental illness", you need to go at least as far as getting a third or fourth opinion. Psychology is not a science, and if a shrink tells patients that they have a psychosis, chances are that they will develop it.

This is the statement I'm referring to. My husband read it too (i'm on a 55" screen) and came away with the same impression.
If that's not what you mean then frankly, I don't know what you meant by that.
I've already been diagnosed by several professionals, Mark. I don't need your input on how to care for myself.

When we moved to Texas, we got a house out in an unincorporated area, where you could stand on the roof and see Bell, Coryell, and Lampasas counties. VERY quiet neighborhood, each house on at least two acres, etc etc etc. I loved it.
My wife started to hate it within a year. Too far away from people, boring, etc etc etc. So we moved to Europe.
Advance the clock 10 years, and now my wife says "I understand why you don't want to live too near anyone else. I hate people. They're all idiots. We need to build a house away from the city, get away from all these #$#@$! people."
