Any truth to this?
on: November 01, 2009, 08:51:18 am
Granted it is from last year, but still.....


Quote
In a recent series of ads aimed at school children, a leading British energy company has assigned a controversial summer project: police their family's global-warming crimes.

Launched last week by NPower -- the country's fourth-largest provider -- the campaign is part of a larger program to educate children about global warming and the wasteful habits that might exacerbate it.


Fact or fiction?
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

What's so implausible about it?

Didn't they use to assign recycling reports to students as well? How is this any different?

Hey, it's perfectly reasonable. Their parents probably won't be around when the ice caps melt and the country floods, we gotta hold them accountable for the disasters while we can.

Sounds a lot like the secret police indoctrinating children to inform on they're parents to me.

Why does the environment need secret police?
So as through a glass, and darkly

Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

Because the kids are still gonna be here when the environment goes to **** due to what their parents did, and their parents aren't.

Oh, please. The kids aren't reporting their family to an authority. Clearly the kids are just being told to inform their families about what they learn about being environmentally friendly. There's nothing secret policey about this at all.

Not this Hitler Youth crap again... :rolleyes:
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

Liberator, my...sources...tell me that, well, if you want to live, you need to leave. Now. Don't delay; not for packing, not for friends, not for family. As soon as you read this, flee. Flee the country. Flee for a nation with which we do not have an extradition treaty; Iran would be ideal.

Otherwise, on your own head be the consequences.
I will ask that you explain yourself. Please do so with the clear understanding that I may decide I am angry enough to destroy all of you and raze this sickening mausoleum of fraud down to the naked rock it stands on.
