    North Korea See also: "Who Steals my Purse" by John Brunner. Unfortunately, I don't think it would work, now, as NK would immediately go all-out war, even if China & they were advised in advance. H @ 1081 Unfortunately, there...

    Smashing everything up - continued - even iof it's tory councils & their vote gets trashed ... because ... then, Labour will have to scrape up the mess - & raise taxes. It's clearly deliberate. Paul Thanks, I think .......

    Especially for EC - from today's Grauniad: The more the government’s authority shrinks, however, the more it acts as if it has a huge mandate. It seeks to crush or ignore opposition in ways that previous, much more popular administrations...

    H @ 780 So, you are saying that the conventional Birds of Prey are a classic example of convergent evolution? Falcons aren't closely related to hawks, eagles, or other raptors. Are the remainder closely related, or they also separately-evolved lineages?...
