@ Darren – YouTube has had that problem for the past 3 or so months. I think the problem is more common with OnVol users. If you check back after a few minutes, the video will usually work.

Guys,

I cannot see all the videos from you tube that you are posting. The site keeps telling me ‘this video is not available anymore’. Can anyone help? Thanks

[Daphne – I’ve just checked them via the domain rather than just through the ‘control room’ and everything is fine. They come up when I click on them. Try copying the link and pasting it into your browser.]

@I. M. Dingli

Well this is really cool; I’m addressing myself since someone opted to use my name instead of his.

Anyway, my dear friend you choose to point out a particular sentence from a couple of paragraphs so the whole meaning is twisted they way you read it.

Please read it again maybe you will understand the meaning in the context within which I was using it.

My dear Amanda Mallia, if you had the decency to follow all the comments I posted together with the relative replies by Daphne, you would notice the way the discussion evolved, but you just read a couple of words here and there (like Africans, illegal, diseases), than for obvious reasons, you jumped to the conclusion that it doesn’t make sense.

You quoted me as saying the following: – ‘I. M. Dingli – Your statement (about Africans) that “you never know what kind of diseases they are carrying” (or something to that effect) does not hold water, because the same could be said for anyone else you encounter on a daily basis’.

Amanda please read all my comments once more maybe you will understand them the second time round. I never said what you are implying above.

We were discussing the contents of the clip which your sister pointed out and obviously since it concerned illegal immigrants, they are the subject but wait…. I did refer to ‘prisoners (both Maltese and foreign), illegal immigrants, drug addicts (Maltese and foreign)….’ What do you think, was I just talking about the African illegal immigrants?

I. M. Dingli – “What about newborns from infected parents to mention another much more real situation?”

You seem to be unaware that the same situation can – and does – arise regarding Maltese children. The only confirmed case of hepatitis I know of is that of a (white) Nordic woman married to a Maltese man. She went on to have at least two (presumably healthy) offspring after being diagnosed.

Brigantes: you claim to be a free man and a free thinker yet you stayed away from Josie’s parade like a good boy because he told you so. You can feel free to call me a Marxist since I have actually read Marx (have you?).

I. M. Dingli – Your statement (about Africans) that “you never know what kind of diseases they are carrying” (or something to that effect) does not hold water, because the same could be said for anyone else you encounter on a daily basis.

In 1986 (which was, I believe, when Aids/HIV was “discovered”), a popular magazine ran a title on its cover saying “Turn to page XX to see what a person with Aids/HIV looks like”. Page XX had no picture on it, but it was simply a mirror. Unless you’ve got a pea for a brain, that should tell you that your argument does not make sense.

Brigantes / Athena – I think that you’d feel more at home surrounded by like-minded people. Here are a couple of suggestions (although I do not feel in the least bit comfortable promoting their sites):

@ Brigantes:

Apologies for thinking that “I was told to stay away by Josie, so I did” actually means “I was told to stay away by Josie, so I did”.

As for being a Marxist…surprise…surprise…I am definitely not. Che Guevara was a deluded fool who thought that the ends justify the means and Stalin was a tyrant just as much as Hitler was.

As for being a dreamer, what makes you think so?

One thing is for sure. I am not a piss-in-the-pants coward like you. I do not hide my name when insulting people.
