Argentina claims in can detect the ebola virus in patients in less than 24 hours
Argentina has developed a molecular biological method to detect the presence of the Ebola virus in a patient in less than 24 hours, the Argentine health ministry has announced. Read full article

Disclaimer & comment rulesI will praise Argentina IF and WHEN they make this method available to the world or has this already been used elsewhere, any comments?

Oct 11th, 2014 - 09:51 am - Link - Report abuse 0' the surveillance to detect possible cases in the country had worked fine so far.'
ho hum.......
Let's hope they are helping Brazil with their first suspected case.
Oct 11th, 2014 - 10:08 am - Link - Report abuse 0This whole story is ambiguous.
Oct 11th, 2014 - 10:12 am - Link - Report abuse 0In one sentence it appears to convey that Argentina has developed this brand new method for detecting Ebola, and you have to wonder just how they've actually tested whether it works or not considering that they've had no actual Ebola patients to test it on.
Or is it that Argentina is actually using a WHO tried and tested method for detecting Ebola, which is implied further down in the story?
However it is good that they are boosting their health defence against this deadly disease...but I wonder just what protective equipment and clothing they are using as none of the WHO approved kit is made in Argentina, and we all know that Argentina won't import items unless they export items to the exact same amount.
And what has Argentina got left that people want? Soy? Doubtful.

Oct 11th, 2014 - 10:13 am - Link - Report abuse 0It was developed there in malbran institute.
I think It used to take at least 72 hours to detect that disease before.
I hope they do their job and effectively control the borders.
That ebola is a scary modafoca.
Sorry. There is one thing that we can be sure of. Argieland ALWAYS lies. It LIES about everything. It lies about its history. It lies about the Falkland Islands. It lies about the war. It lies about its responsibility. It lies about compliance with law and the UN Charter. It lies about its debts. It lies about repayments. It lies about its responsibility. Its “president” says she's a lawyer. Why are there no records of her qualifications. Another lie. She has, at least, millions and makes 'legal declarations'. More lies. EVERYTHING about argieland is a lie. So stuff this 'method'. It will probably kill you. Pay very careful attention to argieland's antecedents. Home-produced genocides. Nazi 'experimenters'. Nazi killers. Back to home-grown killers.

Oct 11th, 2014 - 11:20 am - Link - Report abuse 0Did you not read the article....it said..
”The center managed to design a “primer” that allows the (( Genome of the Ebola virus to Multiply )) if it is found in a blood sample or other bodily fluids“
....”with the help of genetic material of the virus sent from a reference center of the World Health Organization (WHO) ”
All they needed was a sample...not a case...
Interesting that WHO is not reporting this validation. This coming from a country that had skilled healthcare workers die from the Avian flu in 2009? Maybe they will produce a better therapeutic treatment than ZMAPP. Better yet a vaccine.

I'm now tending to agree with @4 there is something we are missing in the story...
I think the whole point of the article is that they don't have to send the sample to CDC in Atlanta for confirmation they can do it in the country now.
Oct 11th, 2014 - 02:08 pm - Link - Report abuse 0If they get it they're screwed, the health care system is in total collapse now. I can't imagine what would happen if they found a case. Probably panic in the streets.

Lets see if we have this right, Argentina need a blood sample sent to them or a sample of blood from a person entering Argentina and then can tell within 24 hrs whether they have Ebola or not. What are they going to do take blood samples from everyone entering Argentina to see if they have Ebola?

Oct 11th, 2014 - 03:35 pm - Link - Report abuse 0OK. So all they have to show for is five cases of NOT Ebola. That is actually not really evidence that it works. I saw no evidence in the article to suggest that their new method actually detects Ebola...
Elaine, we are doing just fine without Argentina's yet unproven “ help. ” This is just grandstanding on the part of Argentina, who I might add received Mr. Bah flying in via Morocco, and doing nothing, before he transited on to Brasil.
Oct 11th, 2014 - 03:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Today, our health experts returned a NEGATIVE FOR EBOLA finding for the suspected Ebola patient, Mr. Bah. Not the poorly funded public heath services of Argentina.
If anything our healthcare specialists could, and probably will help other nations in the region with this problem, including bankrupt Argentina.
Who cares who is first in South America to have a test to detect the ebola virus.
Oct 11th, 2014 - 03:59 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Surely the important factor is that every country should be able to run the tests.
One problem is the virus can have a long incubation period of up to 21 days, before any symptoms are shown.

Anyhoo... I do hope Argentina has made a medical breakthrough, some good news would be nice, for a change.

Or is somebody from Argentina just jumping on the bandwagon of a sensational news story?
Looks like ARGENTINA the has-beens, are feeling left out - trying to get international media attention, and using a world health crisis to do it.
Please make a direct statement, or are you unwilling to look like a fool?
Should ebola make it to Argentina, I expect CFK or one of her pathetic excuses for a minister to pronounce that as it arrived in Argentina and not the Falkland Islands that it fully supports Argentina's claim to the Malvinas.
Oct 11th, 2014 - 08:50 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Ebola will, as is usual in these situations, say nothing.

Don't worry ebola will never get into Argentina, because who would carry it? nobody with any sense would go there.

This is the type of overblown hubris that makes the world laugh at Argentina.
Seriously, you ain't helping that situation boyo.
Re: ”we pay our bills,
no you don't. (and apologies to others for posting this on more than one thread);
I hold shares in British Gas.
Argentina owes British Gas approximately $244 million.
Those familiar with the British Gas case say Argentina has no chance of changing the outcome of the legal decision, but the country remains litigious and is still fighting the ruling. Alex Yanos, a partner at Freshfields, the firm representing British Gas, confirmed that Argentina has refused to make payment.
Pay your debts. Pay me, you lying scum.
Re:
Paul Singer should wait until after December when RUFO clause expires..
Why? why 'should' he wait? He won the court case. The nation of Argentina is in Contempt of Court. Criminals get punished and are forced to pay their debt to society, and any outstanding bills.
You, Hernan, are now considered a criminal. I don't trust criminals.
Re:
ebola on Malvinas (sic), if you meant The Falkland Islands I am sure adequate provisions are in place and transport would be arranged for those sick to be isolated and the UK and Chile would provide support.
We have power, money, technology and world-class scientific establishments in the UK.
You have shanty-towns, corruption and pollution. Yuck!
Would Argentina's neighbours support or shun her?

Well here is an article about Buenos Aires pollution from 2012 also...
Pollution in river basin choking Buenos Aires
Near Argentina's capital, years of growth along the Riachuelo river basin have gone largely unchecked. As companies flush heavy metals into the water, residents are being forced to suffer the side effects.
Judith Aragón tries to use as little water as possible from her tap. She's not obsessed with economizing: She's simply weary of the source.
Judith lives in a shantytown called Villa Inflamable just south of Argentina's capital, Buenos Aires. It's located on the edge of the Riachuelo, one of the most polluted river basins in the world.
Judith Aragón is concerned by the pollution in the Riachuelo
The mother of three is supplied with treated bottled water by the local municipality for drinking and cooking. But it isn't enough for personal hygiene. For that, the family has to use the river water that comes in via the tap.
That water is, in a word, filthy.
“The Riachuelo can be seen as a microcosm of the environmental problems in the cities of Argentina,” says Leandro García Silva, an Ombudsman specialising in environmental human rights. “The Riachuelo as a river is absolutely overloaded with contamination as compared with its size - it's a small river with a big city around it.”

back to the topic, as this is not about the UK, much as paul-carrion is besotted by the country, but what will Argentina do if hit by an Ebola crisis?
I bet they would be asking for help from the UK/EU/USA...
I'd say if Ebola did get to argentina, it would run rife.

Oct 13th, 2014 - 02:39 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Having been in S.Africa and seen violence at first hand, I have to disagree.
Rules for travel by road in S.A. NEVER stop to help anyone on the road, phone the police and let them deal with it.
I stayed in Vrieheid, in KwaZulu natal, with friends, in a largely white neighbourhood. The day before we left, a young white lad had been assaulted by two “blacks” who demanded his gold necklace charm. He handed it over but they proceeded to stab him anyway.
Every house had bars on all windows and notices about armed response teams in event of burglaries. In addition, everyone seemed to have a guard dog on their property. Ours was a Rotweiler and I saw Rhodesian Ridgebacks who could tackle a lion. It is also common practice to have a firearm in the glove compartment of the car.
We were also told that if we saw groups hanging about at traffic lights, to go straight through, even at red.
Another rule was, NEVER walk to the shops...take the car.
I have friends who missed their flight at Jo'burg and were put up in a hotel in the city. The desk clerk would not allow them to walk across the road to a shop. They had to take a Taxi and then return in it!! A distance of about 100 metres return.
So, I'm afraid that it is Mr.Slack's brain -whoever he is- that is slack.
Paul, I don't know anyone with a private guard in front of their house or that lives behind a 12 gates in the USA. That's very common in Argentina.
Oct 13th, 2014 - 03:07 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Also I don't know anyone who's been kidnapped or even robbed at gunpoint.
That happens all the time in Argentina.
I had 2 guards one in the front and one in the back and a live-in armed driver when I lived in Argentina. That's common and needed in that sh*thole.
The main reason I moved back to the USA was due to the insecurity. It was getting very dangerous and I can't imagine its gotten any better.
I like to be able to walk without fear day or night anywhere I want. I can even wear nice clothes, carry a bag and a wear watch while I do it. Gasp!
You'll never know what its like to live in peace. You have to worry about opening your door every time the bell rings and watching your back as you walk down the street.

Argentina makes sensational claims, yet no practical help is forthcoming, even for their pals and neighbours, the Brazilians, even when the crisis is immediately upon them.
Argentine claims have the appearance of just that - grandstanding!
And at time when Argentina is really in need of some prestige and positive publicity, this appears to merely exploitation of a tragic situation.
Given the political circumstances, one can quite rightly expect their claims to be questioned.
Argentine Trolls like Paul Cedrone respond with their standard, insults, whataboutery, and condemnation of US/UK societies.
Dragging in murder rates, and Malvinas etc., have nothing to do with the Ebola cases - that's pure distraction on your part.
The US is effectively dealing with a confirmed Ebola case in their own country. Canada is developing what appears to be an effective treatment for some of those infected.
Argentina and your Trolls, are behaving like a child who feels left out when the attention of the adults turns to something important.

I'm extremely impressed by US Air Force's posts. The United States military has often in the past been criticised for its insensitivity towards foreign cultures, but here we have a yank who has succeeded in absorbing the Malvinista mindset as if born to it. It’s all been there in one post or another: the unquestioning acceptance of 1833 mythology, the all consuming sense of Argentine victimhood, the rejection of any responsibility for anything, the spite, the bile, the hatred, the fervent delusion that everybody else in the world shares the neurosis, and the touching belief that the Chinese, the Russians, the Venezuelans, the United Nations, the hermanos latinos, the UK taxpayer, somebody, anybody is coming to the rescue and nothing in the mindset needs to be challenged.
It’s truly impressive that somebody has mastered all this thousands of miles distant from the culture and education system which nurtures and perpetuates it.

Anyway, I guess I'm old hat, but I'm frankly surprised you know so little of a major NATO ally where even with this apparent new Opening to the South, a USAF airman might legitimately expect to find himself serving. But let me help out, anyway.
In fact these days you'd be hard put to find a bona fide goose-stepping Kraut anywhere in the old homeland. The real diehards legged it long ago to more conducive climes, such as Argentina, for example, where inter alia Mengele and Eichmann were welcomed with rosy garlands and open arms. Indeed some would say that their influence persists to this very day!
But even had the Old Guard stayed back in the old homeland, I'm sure they'd have recognised there wouldn't be much need to invade Greece to get their monies back. The Greeks are a proud, honourable people making strenuous efforts to pay their debts off. You won't find many of them trying to wriggle out of their obligations by claiming to be in the same bracket as Liberia and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. They're far too dignified for that.

NOT TRUE according to your OWN Constitution, but you have NEVER read it have you?
“CHAPTER lV
Powers of Congress”
“Section 75.- Congress is empowered:
21.- To accept or reject the reasons for the resignation of the President or Vice-President of the Republic, and declare the need to call a new election when required.”
BUT: TMBOA can under Section 76 run the country as a Dictatorship for as long as she likes:
“Section 76.- The legislative powers shall not be delegated to the Executive Power save for issues concerning administration and public emergency, with a specified term for their exercise and according to the delegating conditions established by Congress.
The expiration of the term foreseen in the previous paragraph shall not imply the revision of the legal relationships emerging from the rules issued as a result of the powers delegated by Congress.”
So, you are not free if TMBOA desires and there is fuck all you can do about it except rise against her and take the punishment if you lose.
AH, there we have it! COWARDS, the lot of you.

If the Argentines protested loudly enough. Frequently enough. For as long as was necessary. Then they could force her to resign if it was obvious that she no longer held the mandate of the people.

Oct 15th, 2014 - 06:37 pm - Link - Report abuse 0That would be convenient for you, wouldn't it, Enrique?
Sure, we start off commenting on the story, then the Argentine Trolls, Vestige, Nostrils, US A Farce/Hepatia/British Bomber/MendocinoVino, Marcos Alejandro, Enrique, try to distract or deflect discussions by changing the topic, making irrelevant accusations, or plain insults.
In some cases, they just want to talk about themselves because they are lonely and miserable - “A_Voice” is a good example.
Now,
What are your comments on the story above, “Enrique”???
Great suggestion Enrique.........not. when the article is planted in bs and wannabe.........the comments can't help but wander all over. I would love to think Argentina is doing something for humanity, but the fact of the matter is that it dubious st best. When was the last time Argentina aided in disaster relief for hurricanes in the Carribean or refuges.....tsunamis? Argentina hopes no country at all. For a country of beggars. That is pathetic.

Who is the Troll...?
134. While I was living in Argentina I had to go to a Hospital/Clinic 4X. Each time the Hospital was worse than the one previous. Everything was very minor, sand in my eye from the horrific winds in MDP, a bug bite that made my leg swell from the jungle in Missiones, giving blood and the other was water in my ear from scuba diving.
Oct 15th, 2014 - 08:14 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Every instance was scary. The Hospitals were filthy, pealing paint, scary 1950 horror movie type equipment, but nice caring docs.
I would never, NEVER, NEVER, go to a Hospital there if I actually had something bad.
Although the Docs were nice they don't have access to what people in the civilized world would consider to be standard practice. Especially now that they can't afford new syringes, gauze or gloves.
No thank you.
I'll pass.

Oct 15th, 2014 - 11:52 pm - Link - Report abuse 0this from the Troll who writes, “I'm playing the long game...”
a direct reference to your attempts to deceive and mislead other posters.
From the same poster who creates elaborate fictions about travelling and owning property in the US, as an attempt to create controversy and direct attention towards himself.
Same for the “guess where I am, in Scotland,”with the fictitious Dunoon address and stories about neighbours.
Add that to scoffing at others, and passing judgement on others who are better off than yourself, despite your pathetic pretentions.
Far from impressing anyone,
You paint a very clear picture of a jealous, bitter, bad-tempered lonely old curmudgeon.
I lead a happy and productive life, and I have realised many of my goals, with few regrets.
I am sure the same can be said for Poppy, YB, Elaine, Anglotino, and many others.
That's not an invitation to hear about you.
Got an email from a real Canadian the other day....what I did notice is he used the Brit “our” as in neighbour, but he used the Yankee iz instead of “is” as in realize not realise...

Ask USAF/Hepatia,
He says he can trace physical locations of IP's through Mexican servers.
Just pop your head over to the next cubicle.
Just to confound you, you're going to such trouble, Canadian journalism students are taught to use US spellings - greater acceptance for a larger readership.
“iz” is experiencing a comeback - older English spelling, current American usage.
“is” is a modern British usage making common appearance 150 years ago and adopted as “modern” spelling.
Now there is growing acceptance for both.
I know your violent condescension is passionate and heartfelt, but give it rest - before you spray flecks of foam everywhere.

For over a year, Voicey has been ranting on and on that I'm NOT British, and repeatedly condemning me for being a “Canadian” or “living in Canada”.
Now, he's ranting and condemning me for NOT being a Canadian.
He just wants to create controversy so that we speak to him.

Oct 17th, 2014 - 01:01 am - Link - Report abuse 0Where do I start.... AGAIN!
First off, -ise or -ize. Australia and New Zealand are probably the only two main English speaking countries where -ise is the only correct spelling and extremely dominant. Even the UK uses -ize at time and Canada fluctuates between the two. There are pages and pages on this on the internet and shallow observations on this site regarding this spelling means nothing.
So Voice has rehashed all this again. I answered it all here:

I work 3 days per week or 21 hours. I am studying 3 subjects this semester that entail 10 contact hours: APBL10003, APBL20045 and GEOG20008.
As for me never having been in the UK, you have never proven that. I lived in the UK for 2.5 years. I can describe in details the four places that I lived in Colliers Wood, Acton, Marleybone and Isle of Dogs.
Of course I don't know where he lives. Why should I? We're meeting at a cafe in downtown Vancouver. I won't have a car.
I'm confused, are you saying that Troy is my sockpuppet? Or that I am his? And you accept that I am in Australia?
You fling around accusations like a monkey with poo - it is hard to keep up.
Ask the questions and I will answer them. But no, I won't give you my name.
Voice do you think this is the only forum posters communicate on? It only takes one or two people to post an email and eventually someone takes a leap of faith. Hell crazy suzzie sends me regular insane emails.......and some normal people as well. Not everyone fears email.....only the ones who need to keep their location anonymous.

Oct 17th, 2014 - 11:27 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Still making ASSumptions about me.
“...but the course information says 16 hours per week.....”
Yes it does. Directly under the heading: Contact hours (FIRST YEAR)
I am not first year. First year subjects (first digit is a 1) are four contact hours each. But as you will see from my list above, I am only doing one first year subject and 2 second year subjects. Hence less contact hours.
You will also note that I am only doing 3 subjects - while this is considered full-time, a full study load is 4 subjects.
“...but of course you are so clever you can do the 3 year course at 10 hours per week and still get your BA....”
Another ASSumption.
Where did I ever claim that? It is a 3 year course FULL-TIME. I expect to complete it in FIVE years. First because I am doing a concurrent Diploma in Spanish which adds a year and also because I don't study 4 subjects per semester - though am going to try next year.
I will have completed 9 subjects by the end of this year but will get credit for 2 over summer in Mexico - so will have completed 11 by the time I start my third year. Most students would have completed 16.
So I should be finished end of 2017. 2016 will be spent on exchange (currently I like what I see at Querétaro in Mexico) and the first half of 2017 will maybe be spent doing volunteer or charity work somewhere if I can get sponsorship.
“How ever do you accrue 3 months holiday...part time ...holidays would be on a pro rata basis...”

Oct 18th, 2014 - 01:47 am - Link - Report abuse 0Nice Melbourne pics on Instagram, Anglotino.
Thanks mate. A little title bit of Melbourne's multiculturalism that CabezaDura thinks is so dangerous. Voice doubts I see and Nostrils thinks is missing.

I don't care so much as to who the person is, but I think it shows extreme limitations intellectually to create a second login to make the EXACT same arguments. I mean there isn't even a challenging idea or argument presented. It just follows the same formula of squatters, declining UK power, debt, Muslims etc etc etc.
193 Anglo - huh? that wasn't even directed at you. I think you forgot to add how I think paying taxes for the farce of royalty is moronic. You forgot to add that too.

Oct 18th, 2014 - 07:25 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Firstly I have never doubted you were in in land of Fourecks...
Second don't try and convince me that Instagram is prove of anything...all it shows is the date you uploaded it is not showing Geo-tagging....
If I really wanted to I could grab a load of images of Victoria Street Market bundle them together and shove them on that site....to make it appear I had taken them...
..it would be easy...
start with an image from here...

Anglotino,
Oct 18th, 2014 - 08:38 pm - Link - Report abuse 0LOL, Voice's “pincer attack” @200 !!
Let me guess, “Voice” is the fat,outgunned and inadequately defended Belgrano, whilst “Think” is the Veinticinco de Mayo, steaming back to the safety of port after a brief appearance?
LOL !!!!
Did anybody have even a cursory glance at that blog site.
Oct 18th, 2014 - 09:36 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The first thing on show was a “It is a Kitchener 5lb Stainless Steel Sausage Stuffer.”
What a pity they omitted the “r”.
Oh Voice
Oct 18th, 2014 - 10:38 pm - Link - Report abuse 0First up, pincer attack? Huh?
Secondly it isn't the Victoria Street Market but the Queen Victoria Market or the Queen Vic.
Here let me help you out. The photos I posted are geotagged, except for the ones that show where I live.
You need to navigate to my profile when you are logged in to Instagram. You will a geotagged map. Create a throwaway login if you don't have one, it'll take you 3 minutes. You won't leave me any identifiable information by looking.
You go to so much trouble to disprove me all the time that 3 mins to register should be child's play. Otherwise tell me another site to use.... your choice.
Either way I've posted a screen shot.
Please try again because, if you FAIL this much here it is a wonder that you have done anything in life successfully.
Perhaps you need 21 hours to overcome this setback and try again.

Oct 18th, 2014 - 11:06 pm - Link - Report abuse 0There is zero chance of me logging into Instagram that is owned by Facebook....
Facebook the biggest gatherer of traceable info on the planet...
Log into Facebook and you might as well post your name and address everywhere..
...if you think for one second that you can create a throwaway login for anything associated with that company, then you are terribly naive...it will link you to anything that has ever come from your IP or any IP you have used....
Now stop trying to deflect and read the firstly part of @200...
You may well be in Fourecks ...but you have multiple accounts...I have always said so from the beginning and it turns out I was right...
Troy Tempest is a puppet...that is a fact....
..it's my guess it's your puppet...he uses British English and not Canadian English, but he's not a Brit....just like you....
....Will be looking forward to you using Instagram on your travels from Vancouver down the Yankee coast to Mexico...;-)))
Yeah that made no sense. Everything tracks you on the Internet, including Mercopress. If you think that your information is private because you shy away from sites like Facebook then you are even more naive that I first thought.
Oct 18th, 2014 - 11:29 pm - Link - Report abuse 0As I said, give me a site and I'll use that instead. A site you trust and I can't control. You continue to make accusations and ASSumptions but seem to always fall back when I accept the challenge of disproving them. As I've said before, you're extremely anti-climatic.
Any site for pics with geo tags and I'll post (as long you can post from an iPhone).
Also I'm not in the land of Fourecks. XXXX is a Queensland drink and I'm Victorian. I'm in the land of VB. And that's not Victoria Beer as it is sold in UK, but Victoria Bitter.
“but you have multiple accounts...I have always said so from the beginning and it turns out I was right”
I've never claimed otherwise. Though considering your logic I should have lied about this fact. Interesting that I didnt. Multiple accounts does not equate to multiple names. Unlike you I've only ever used one single name on here. .
“Troy Tempest is a puppet that is a fact”
That is your belief and as far as I can see, no one else's.
“it's my guess it's your puppet”
That's a non-sequitur. Very sloppy and extremely lazy.
“he uses British English and not Canadian English”
What's the difference? So far it is only your opinion that he does. What English do I use?
“but he's not a Brit just like you”
But he uses British English and...... do I? But we aren't British according to you. This paranoia of yours is awfully convoluted.
“Will be looking forward to you using Instagram on your travels from Vancouver down the Yankee coast to Mexico”
Umm yeah. Ok. Why? What point will that prove? This seems to be the moment for your AH-HA but I'm failing to see it.

Nice deflection....“Fourecks”....obviously never heard of Terry Pratchett...
Oct 18th, 2014 - 11:54 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Sooo..I guess we won't be following your Instagram trail down the coast....
...Mercopress doesn't track sh!t it sees what I want it to see...
..you know fine well that Aussies use UK spelling and Canadians use a mixture of Yank and UK... or rather you didn't know until I enlightened you....
...hence your puppet's errors in trying to pass as a Canadian....
..doesn't Troy have a phone...why doesn't he post an Instagram trail...if he's supposed to be in Canada..how about a pic or two....
..thought not.
Oh how I wish typeface could truly represent a sigh!
Oct 19th, 2014 - 12:26 am - Link - Report abuse 0Voice. What deflection?
I have heard of Terry Pratchett, however I am not a fan. (pics posted of some of my book collection). So why should I have heard of “Fourecks”?
I mean, seriously, how many Aussies would know what that is? Whatever it is, I am sure it is a play on words for XXXX - a beer from Queensland.
As for the differences between British, Australian and Canadian English - they all differ from each other. Australians do not spell everything as the British do. I have been aware of this for a long time. Again, you keep making leaps of logic based on nothing.
Are Troy's and my spelling and use of English the same? C'mon put it out there instead of insinuating. And what form of English are we using. Because Australian English is most certainly different to British, not just in spelling but in vocabulary.
“you know fine well that Aussies use UK spelling”
No we don't. We use many UK spellings but not all. Extremely facile understanding of the differences.
As for Troy posting on Instagram..... what good would that do? I mean think about it numbnuts, you just said you would never login so you would never know. You set a challenge that you have already failed at.
“Sooo..I guess we won't be following your Instagram trail down the coast....”
Please don't make sh!t up. Where did I say that? C'mon for someone who is so anally pedantic on spelling and use of words, you just made some sh!t up.
Didn't you!
I never said I won't post pics. I just fail to see what it will prove. You have just discredited Instagram as a medium to prove location but now it is manna from heaven? I'll post pics.... indeed, you now know my itinerary, so tell me what pics I should post and I will take photos when I am there. I'll even login into Mercopress and have my iPhone in the pic to prove it.
The thing with you A_Voice is that you don't prove anything but just make accusations and insinuations and ASSumptions.
Oh dear! What a waste of time.
Oct 19th, 2014 - 12:49 am - Link - Report abuse 0Tragic off topic thread. You lot owe me some serious scroll time!
Arf!
Pedantic me??
Oct 19th, 2014 - 01:20 am - Link - Report abuse 0Look at this...
“Secondly it isn't the Victoria Street Market but the Queen Victoria Market or the Queen Vic. ”
It's on Victoria Street ergo....
Soooo..tell me all these common English words that are spelled differently in Fourecks....
The UK was inundated with Castlemaine XXXX...pronounced FourX for years...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RcgkSSQvVQg
Pratchett's Fourecks was his Australia on the Disc World....
...Brits obviously got the word play straight away....
Your English is exactly the same as TT...well it would be, it's your puppet and you will not convince me otherwise, so live with it....
So to any Melburnian the Victoria Street Market and you will get a blank look..... anyone! Do you know how long Victoria Street is?
Oct 19th, 2014 - 02:09 am - Link - Report abuse 0I got the Fourecks analogy instantly, hence the reason I replied using XXXX. You are making a point out of nothing here as I got the word play.... you seemed to miss that.
Mmmh British and Aussie English
Spelling:
Program
encyclopedia
pajamas
Just off the top of my head.
Different words:
Togs
arvo
chook
lollies
footpath
truck
What's a schooner? Who is a bluey? How is it possible to love and hate magpies? Flake is what? My joint means what? When can coon be used in polite company? I see people wearing thongs at uni all the time! What is a nature strip?
“Your English is exactly the same as TT...”.
I'll take your word for it because I have never looked closely. Go back and prove it. No use looking at our posts right now is there.
“it's your puppet and you will not convince me otherwise”
Sign of a closed mind, but hardly surprising considering how much you have failed recently.
“so live with it....”
Seems it is you that has to live with it. I'm quite unconcerned.
Didn't I once also login under True Blue? How many sock puppets do I supposedly have?
You can't make up your mind. Am a student? Will I travel?
I mean what am? Because only you keep seeing these things.

I know you have to stop in at the uni while you're here.
Perhaps you could post some pics and post them geo linked on Face Book?
I fail to see what it will prove, but at least Voicey won't have to login.
He can compare your photos to these

I just don't have enough time to login to two accounts and post under two names. Just one. Bahahahahahaha
Anyone else think its weird some posters are up to 1-2am on here?

I still want to know why he cares where somebody is and who they are?
Why does it matter so much?
I think its a sign of mental instability.
A sure sign
And Troy, try to send him some pics.
