> I'm not sure what the original article was that you thought Jaz would

********I did nt post it.*************

but I think he would appreciate your joke about the jewish
> kamakazi pilot.

*******He did nt appreciate my "Adam & Eve" joke ,So I wont be telling him
anymore************

 That could give you an opening line with him if you're
> stuck for something to say the next time you see him

********I really have no desire to say anything to him.He does come across
as being like Uri Gellar.And I really have no time to converse with
fakes***************

 - or you could just
> maintain the strong and silent act you mentioned before and not shatter
any illusions or whateva.

********Its not an act,Conversation is not my strong point*********

 *******I do indirectly.I buy loads of those DVDs that the Chinese guys sell
for 5 pounds a go,They must send some of the  money home,So I probably am
keeping a whole village in China going********

********Yes,I do beleive in what I say(though I enjoyed winding Ade up)

********China uses up over half of all the worlds cement supplies.There is
over 1 Billion Chinese people and most are with-out fridges.Now the country
is becoming more prosperous ,more people want fridges.If you think we have
trouble now with the O-Zone layer wait untill all the Chinese get fridges.
  Question:Is it right for us to stop the Chinese getting fridges?******

 Is it something like 2% of the people (the U.S.)
> using 90% of the world's resources? I don't remember the exact figures
> but Jaz could tell you, as he told me on his birthday, in his hotel room
(probably shouldn't have said that but couldn't resist it).

******If it was my birthday and we were in a hotel room
.......................better stop there as I ve already had three
warnings**********



> Not everything can be converted into monetary terms.

> 'We' are destroying the world at an incredible rate.

   ******* I disagree,The world is a lot cleaner than it was during the
indusrtrial revolution,And trees grow again and by the time that petrol runs
out we will of invented another engine that runs on other substances*****



> It's great to be back out of lurkerdom. Have you missed me, honey?

******I have been worried about you********

*******I did nt realise that he went that far in his films........anyway I
thought we d agree to keep that bit a secret ;-)********

 Which leads me on to the subject of what DO you
> DO all day besides run this show, and go to the shop for Chunky KitKats?

*******Im self-employed **********
