1. prove it1. Ships emit twice as much CO2 as planes.
2. A bear named Voytek helped carry ammunition for Polish troops in World War II. A campaign has been launched to raise a permanent memorial.
3. Using a mobile phone before bedtime can delay you getting to sleep.
4. Super-fast broadband fibres are laid in the sewers.
Yep, just better believe it, Duckman. All downhill from now on.I heard on the radio today that an extensive study has just been completed in western countries to discover "at what age are humans most unhappy".
Well the answer is back - age 44 apparently. They said it was very consistent across all nations. It works like a big U curve. We start life happy, go through mid-life and hit rock bottom at 44 then do a sharp rise up to old age.
The only proviso was health. The researchers said the most important aspect of the happiness test was "health".
Looks like a decade of downward spirals still ahead of me.

Perhaps you could ask Noirua to consult his Astrology Gods and then tell you that there lies ahead a happy, healthy life, with ten more little ducklings!
Worse than humans???????...the mosquito is the most dangerous living form of life on planet Earth.
Cancer wins at the moment, if you can say it's a form of life.Worse than humans???????
Oh, I guess this isn't the time to be looking for, umm, romantic moments then.Hi Julia
I'm happy to consult Noirua, but if he mentions anything about ten more little ducklings.........Mrs Duckman and myself are definitely going to go out and get Pay TV installed in the nest!!
We have teething and constipation issues with the youngest duckling at present. Very difficult to "cherish the moment" when your eyes are popping out of your head!!

Yes! Hate them with a passion.Worse than humans???????
As much as I really try to avoid going down that line of thinking, a perusal of Google Earth offers some empirical evidence of such.Cancer wins at the moment, if you can say it's a form of life.
The analogy in The Matrix of humans being a cancer of the planet has some legs...
We're not really creating much at all, yet. Just consuming and transforming.
Do you know the name of the England captain who did three tours of Australia and failed to score a single run?
Another take is that we need to sort out a way to get off this rock because we're destined to smash into the sun in a few million years anyway. So, science is the answer to halting the descent into that big ball of hydrogen, or we start catching the bus to Mars, until it too smashes into Inti. We're all going to eventually die anyway....As much as I really try to avoid going down that line of thinking, a perusal of Google Earth offers some empirical evidence of such.

Was it discovered why people are again happy in their 70's?Yes, the happiest part of a humans life is when they are in their 20's and 70's. The 40's are a very unhappy period of time. In a survey in 2004, four times as many males committed suicide aged 15 to 19 than women. Ages 19 to 24 showed this rose to 6 times.
Probably was after the discovery of viagraWas it discovered why people are again happy in their 70's?
