'j'ohn: @"Off Your Meds" Jackson Thanks for that enlightening response. For some reason I thought the helipad was getting regular use (you never mentioned 'emergency' in your post). I have a thing for copters, I have a pool in my garden (yes, it's outdoors and yes it has no panoramic view). Pools just don't get me as hard as copters do...but that's me. Other thing about me is the issue is with me never having been on meds rather than being off them atm...

"Smut Worthy" Jackson: Pippo writes: "pippo: Am I the only one to find most of the contestants quite ugly, not to say scary???" Dear Pippo, the only reason they are scary is because they are fake. Like a new paint job on a rusty car, or a killer dressed as a nun. These types of people are NEVER to be trusted. If you look at their lifestyles, many of them have been on a slippery slope for a long, long time. Let's see, how does this go again?

Canadian: The problem with these buildings in Pest is that they sort of sit in limbo type of enviroment. Back in the 90's many people were given the chance the purchase their flats for extemely low amounts (by western standards). Think 500 thousand or 1 million forints. Those that has the money purchased their flats and those that did not, kept renting them. So many buildings in Pest have quasi ownership statues were its possible that 30% of the building occupants own their flats while teh rest do not.... from "It May Be Derelict and Falling Apart, But Damn It, It's Listed!"

"Avid Hunter" Jackson: As an avid hunter, I can tell you a few stories about both wild and farm swine. Pigs kill more humans than all other wild animals combined. A Sow will fight to the death to protect her offspring. A Boar is usually as detrimental as a pregnant Sow or a Sow with piglets. Once you are hurt and fall to the ground, you will be lucky to escape alive. There have been many people eaten entirely by wild boars, but they usually enjoy snacking on softer portions of your body such as your schlong and nuts, ... from "Mean Mangalica Takes a Bite Out of Farmer"

PiP: @Corporate Scum. Thanks :) I've done a lot of research into this, not just in Hungary but also the UK situation. I've even interviewed people from MAHASZ about it. One way for DJs of any kind to cause a bit of grief for the copyright enforcers is to keep complete tracklists and then to contact the indie labels themselves, find out if they have received royalties and pass on the details of the copyright enforcement agency of that particluar country.

mahaszmacoat: Dear CS, I agree with you, there are practical reasons for using laptops, serato etc. But unlike all the previous replacements of existing media (78's, jukeboxes, cassettes, cd's and so on) this time the producers of the music are unable to earn in any way due to the free peer to peer downloads. One group of people who are earning money out of it is the dj who is downloading, storing and then playing that recording and getting paid for it.
