Thanks for appreciating that the headline was poorly worded, and fixing.
I canāt imagine that the headline was meant to read āRationalist Science-based anarchist Vegan cultā.
But there we are.
(Living in Scotland, Iām well-used to BBC bias in the use of headlines. Everyone here is)

Veganism was literally a throwaway line in the article. What you spent far more time covering was rationalism. But ārationalist cultā isnāt as divisive or attention-grabbing as āvegan cultā now is it?
We see you.

Unless you have proof that veganism was at the core of their belief structure and influenced their world view, itās totally irrelevant.
You know why it was put into the headline. Clicks.
Itās beneath the broadcaster I pay for. Be better than this, please.

Argh. Ireland screwed along with UK. Singapore? Hong Kong?

Is it when they come for a family member? A friend? A colleague? When camps open? When rule of law is suspended? When the free press is shut down?
History tells us populism never ends well - for the populists or the population. Whatās so wrong now that itās so attractive?

Isnāt that how it should work though? That if lots of smaller inland states all voted the same way, they might have influence. But if they are indeed the minority, outweighed by the coastal states, they should never hold sway.
Unless ādemocracyā isnāt the future?

Abernethy for us, up the Ballo Burn. Lovely. Happy New Year mate.

Fifteen minutes that a planeload of customers could have been indoors, instead of outside standing in a literal wind-tunnel.
I was fine, but there were children and elderly folks.
Could you please have a word with Swissport/EDI and let me know what youāll do to prevent a reoccurrence?

10 mins later, the plane has disembarked. Why are we standing in the cold? Is this standard, that you send people to board just as a plane touches down?

So they sent us down to stand outside, no Swissair staff there, no plane. One just arrived, which I assume is ours. Why are we standing outside in 5Ā° wind, when the plane will clearly be a while before ready to board?

The dropouts are specially shaped to receive it - really long track-style ones with an extra drilled hole. So three M8 Nylock bolts per side. Donāt think it could convert a standard bike

IP55-rated, and they import different types of mud from all over the world, which they then squirt at the bearings while simulating pedalling to see how the seals hold up. Wow.

Ah thanks - it wasn't clear to enter the whole handle. Thanks!
