    I didn't need to know. I was happy to bask in the mystery of it all.
    Agreed. I feel like I did when I found out there was no Santa-Claus.

    Well I'm not familiar with the person they've revealed, so I'm kinda none the wiser. It is annoying that they revealed him, big wank factor for them I guess, and lots of papers sold.

    Yeah, there is that.
    So The Stig was a real person, with a real name, a history, and everthing?
    Fancy that!
    While I think it was unnecessary to publicly reveal his identity, it's not that big a deal. It's just removed some of the aura of mystery about it.

    But the media are really good at this sort of stuff - it's not about news, it's about sensationalism. A case in point is both The Harold and TV3 splashing about the details of the cockpit voice recorder transcript from the Air NZ A320 crash. While it wasn't them who originally released it (it was the French), it wasn't at all kind to the families concerned, who hadn't had a chance to find out anything about it beforehand. All it would have taken was a phone call to Air NZ.
    But no - they wanted to be "the first with the scoop".
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    Sabine Schmidt (sp?)

    She is superb!
    A brilliant sense of humour... especially for a German. Not a slouch behind the wheel of a cage and pretty decent at whipping a van around the Nurburgring.
    Stigette, perhaps?

    And how many years ago did they stop doing the official times?

    Different strokes etc... i'm sure she's a lovely lady to take home to mum and dad, but personally i just couldn't handle that voice or those looks during my lysergic come down... Not saying i wouldn't twice, like Tank, there'd just have to be conditions attached... along with tape and a bag...

    As this is the ousting thread, you're right, I am Brad Pitt!!! fill 'er up Doc
    I didn't think!!! I experimented!!!

    Why do the Mother Against Everything have to be against everything? Because they're miserable and it kills everyone else's fun.
