    I would never use wikipedia to look up something,it is a poor man/womens britannica. I have a fair idea who probably did write that ucdsu wikipedia entry though(humbert knows who im talking about:) )

    Well there is an article about Wikipedia in the Economist, dated 22nd April, where they cite a study that was published in Nature that found only 162 errors in Wikipedia articles and in fact 123 errors in Britannica's!

    Although I am sure that they are aware that the article about UCDSU was bot a serious article ;):p

    Right, let it be said: I found the page in a bit of a grammatical quandry myself about two weeks ago; I edited it myself (p_larkin99 on the money again!...) to make it a little bit more grammatically sound, and stuck in the names of the officers... I shall now proceed, in a hugely pedantic manner, to make grammatical sense of what's happened since. ;)

    [edit] Might I add that whoever put the word c-u-n-t after the names of the two Presidents should grow the hell up.

    Are you inferring that I get involved in riots? What exactly is my 'ilk'? Just because I am a member of the Communist Party does not mean that I go around advocating violence.

















    Btw, I can sell you an RUC riot stave.... :D

    was looking through wikipedia earlier (which is what you do when you're supposed to be studying but don't want to) and came across this article:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_Place_Names_in_Other_Counties

    It's a list of places around the world with Irish placenames. Its amazing how many limerick townships there are.My particular fave is the limerick nucelar power plant in pennsylvania.

    And its also true...the Irish have landed on the moon as there is a Connemara Chaos Zone which is a region of chaotic terrain on Jupiter's moon Europa.

    T.P. Dolan has a page. He is possibly the coolest guy ever. I loves him, I does!
