Mmm. I stand by the 'bollocks' label . By the simple fact that the people knew they were there as human number generators the automatic writing thing can't work. Anyway, this is meaningless because those people had nothing to do with the 'prediction' and were probably actors anyway!

But to be fair that's all bollocks though isn't it? The pendulum thing you describe is just the way the human works. If you 'will' the pendulum to move your brain will tell your hand to make the movements necessary. However, when the subjects are told to write numbers on a bit of paper in front of them, they're going to write numbers on the paper in front of them, decided by their brain. There's nothing mystic or Ideomotor to it. So are you saying that Derren influenced the 'subjects' to make sure they wrote down the right numbers?

That looks frickin' huge! Made?

I can think of one slight drawback if he was to do that... Not a drawback for the Lottery of course but still.

Just asked if he was kidding...

Oh I hope so... his face and forced smile makes me want to never eat Frosties again. Which is kinda weird. Edit: Ah well, apparently not. He's a South African kid called Sven Ruygrok who's apparently quite a good gymnast...

I'd obviously stopped paying attention at that point because what they're doing isn't even automatic writing... they're just writing 6 numbers down with their eyes closed. I don't really have an issue with Derren himself, not when he's being normal and narrating or whatever but the second another person's involved I hate the way he makes everything so deliberate and 'mystic'. I know that's probably necessary for what he's doing but it just makes him come across as an annoying arse.

He's such a lying b*****d. I'd like to find out where he lives and push ping pong balls with random numbers on them through his letterbox.

Ok, so throughout that entire program, what was the significance of the snowflake? Also, that 24 people thing's gotta be BS. If that was possible (which it isn't) a computer could do it billions of times more efficiently while actually analysing the probabilities of numbers coming up rather than just randomly choosing them. That was pants.

Don't be silly... he's just been fannying around.

Your explanation for anything slightly peculiar is aliens, isn't it? You lose your keys, it's aliens. A picture falls off the wall, it's aliens. That time we used up a whole bog roll in a day, you thought that was aliens as well.

Is it a 73mm BB you're putting into a 68mm shell? Just a thought...

Yeah, but seriously... Why would you want to go to America? It's full of bloody Americans for a start. Who voted for George Bush to be President. Twice. That's enough reason for me never to want to set foot in the place. I went to Canada for few weeks back in 2007 and we went down to Niagara Falls (had to be done). I 100% point blank refused to drive over the bridge so we could say we'd been to the US. Although I was tempted to go over just so I could use the facilities so I could say I'd shat on America...

It's cleverly done but almost all fake methinks.

Rowan tried it and couldn't get it to bleed properly so gave up.

My Inspired forks have the same type of threaded topcap and take a 6mm allen key and I get my Hope hose through no problem.

We all know it .

As far as I know, we both just use longer than average rear hoses and pass the front brake hose down the steerer tube through the stem top cap. I can get over two complete bar revolutions either way before the rear hose starts to snag.

Can you explain it to me because I don't...

99.9% sure Danny is running a Hope headset in 'team green'. I'm just running some random FSA Orbit I think...

Yeah, last time I talked to him he was just starting nightshift sweeping floors at his local MacDonalds. I only thought they used illegal immigrants for that job but thanks to S1jobs.com they managed to get Danny hired .

If my dad had answered the door to my best mate and his dad when I was 12 looking like a drugged up hippy who'd just bitten the head off a bat I'd have been mortified! And I hope your son doesn't read this thread as finding out about you and Henry could be quite embarrassing on all fronts as well...

I feel so sorry for your son...

Just saw this on Play.com: Well there goes that idea then...

See that's what I would do but it seems like everyone else prefers Xbox's... Has anyone had any experience of the backwards compatibility? I'm assuming that on the 120GB slimline it should be pretty sorted?
