Well, I mean, given that the 15 May organization is about as terrifying as the FLQ or maybe Greenpeace.

Greenpeace is fucking scary, wanting to take all of our nice toys from us, petro products abound...

Say I have a case of nasty chemical A, it only measures a meter, by half a meter, by half a meter, or, a half meter cube. Next say I have this big ass country to hide this little thing in. Heck, I will build a box that big and hide in some where in Saint Clair County, then you can find the thing.
And I won't even place it under ground.

How many times were those trailers cleaned?

If I were making chemical weapons in a trailer, and didn't care about anyone but myself, would I worry about the stuff getting out and killing the technicians?

If weapons are found how many of you are going to say it was a US plant, and not believe anything but what you want anyway?

Well that is the big one that GWB has told us to worry about the most.

That can be turned around, too. How many people will see these "discoveries" and believe it because it is what they WANT to believe. They will take what our preisdent says with 100% accuracy, because he's a Republican, a conservative, and by golly, he's better than that Clinton person who lied about having an affair and automatically is a liar and horrible president throughout his eight years in office because he was a Democrat and lied about having an affair.

If we find weapons, and it is convincing that these are the WMDs that we said was there, then I'll be wrong. There. I said it. I would be wrong. But right now, almost three months after the war started, it looks almost certain that our president was lying.

"...it only measures a meter, by half a meter, by half a meter, or, a half meter cube."

That would be a quarter of a cubic meter, actually.

Yes, quite right, my thinking and my typing don't seem to be getting along all that well these days...

Math aside for the moment, the idea is the same....

Americans and metric figures do not mix.

And in any case, I think we can assume that if he did have WMDs, he probably had more than a quarter metre squared of them.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

I'm an American and I absolutely dispise the Brittish Engineering system of measurement, thank you very much.

But you can't even spell "British", regardless of multiple corrections and mockings, so what does it matter?

"British" and "despise".

Yay for the obvious benefits homeschooling brings!

Well, those typos were preceded by "I'm an American", so let's cut him some slack, eh? 8)
