I want to know how long that coversation continued after he stopped the camera.  In a similar vein,I do remember a Technical Manager at my old firm arguing that a litre of oil would take up more space than a litre of water!

Talk from the Dutch Chief of Defense Staff Peter Van Uhm at November's TEDxYou may not agree with him (I kind of don't, to be honest) but his speech is as near to the definition of 'The Civilised Soldier' as I can think of. If we are to have 'rough men standing ready to do violence on our behalf', I hope they're like Peter Van Uhm. Jon

Two of the funniest videos I have ever seen. I can't watch them without absolutely crying with laughter. Binocular Football - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4apzIH4- ... ata_playerJapanese Binocular Football - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aj7f3B1V ... ata_playerSeriously, I was in danger of being asked to shut up at work when I watched the first 20 seconds of the first video.

Well, the bit you edited is actually a quote attributed to George Orwell, but in fact it's origin is quite interesting (from wikiquote) It is of course more famously used by Jack Nicholson's character in the film 'A Few Good Men'.
