Come back when you've left full time education, and you're working....and funding this crud.

In the meantime congratulations on the stupidest post of the month.

Jolly well done you.

Eurgh calm yourself - I didn't say anything for or against I simply stated that the opinion held by most from the area would be that they couldn't care less. How is that in any way stupid, surely you would agree that it is fact ?
