Thanks
Yes, I think you are right. I remember listening to FDR on the radio. That is the way we knew him. He would start out his fireside chats with "My friends- - -"I don't think Hoover used the radio.
I agree with your analysis of the effect of radio and then television.
This young person is :)
It has made the world smaller—and larger—all at the same time. A truly amazing thing.
I suspect in the old days no one would have heard about the VPs op and probably any photos issued would not have shown him with a walking stick.
"is :)" is that good or bad? LOL
Thanks for confirming the change of clothes several of us had speculated that was the case.
Lol it's definitely a good thing. I love seeing them together. I told my best friend once that that's what I was looking for: someone who looks at me the way President Bush looks at Laura.
Exit polls in the UK are not allowed to be annonced until the polling stations are closed
We have a returning officer who announced the result for each constituency not a running tally as you have and counting does not begin until after the polls are closed and ballot boxes delivered to wherever the counting is to take place.
not just politics. Yes, in more ways than most of us realize. In my experience especially commerce. We can have a project being manufactured in Singapore and communicate design changes via CAD drawings overnight. I am sure your dealings in international commerce are facilitated too.
counting does not begin until after the polls are closed and ballot boxes delivered to wherever the counting is to take place. Thank you for this information. That is the way to do it. I am collecting all kinds of information on election methods I can get . Our library has nothing on the subject
I believe in the UK the way it works is that the mother can only contact the child if she/he is willing whereas the child can find details out about the mother/father and just turn up.
May not have got my facts exactly right but I know it favours the child finding out about the parents rather than the other way round.
Yes , that is what I said, Young people can see what a good relationship they have and they are excellent role models.
As an engineer you may find it interesting here is a link to my company's website, to see what product I sell click on cold weld.
Welcome to the Dose.
Um - we have a custom around here, and that is that the person putting up the Dose, who has done a LOT of work, putting them in DTG order, gets to put up their photos first, and then gives an "all clear".
At that point, anybody else is free to post or re-post photos on the thread.
Please, for the sake of the person who did all the work, getting the photos and captions ready, please wait for the "all clear".
A former Monday Dose "poster" person!
Oh thanks for the link. I am quite interested.
Did you find the soy beans ? I sent you a freep mail about it.
