Is it time to end the ban on mobile phones in-flight?

Friday, June 4th, 2010

A new Lifestyle/Health poll has been created.

It’s a fact of life for the frequent flier: Once the plane is off the ground, cell phones must be turned off and put away. But, the debate on whether it is possible for mobiles to interfere with navigational equipment continues: Some say it’s possible, others not, some even think it infringes on civil liberty. Until it can be proven either way, we may not seen an end to the ban. What do you think?

Would you be willing to pay higher taxes to pay developing countries to control their carbon emissions?

Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009

A new Enviroment/Climate poll has been created.

For two decades a lot of chin-wagging has gone on about man-made “climate change”. A lot of carbon has been introduced to the atmosphere by private jets going to and fro from these meetings; rainforests have been chopped down to print all of the “agreements” etc. What is trying to be accomplished is for developed countries (excluding China and India of course) to pay your tax dollars to developing countries to curb their carbon emissions.

OK, this one of course depends how old you are, but for the sake of broad demographics, we’re providing options from the sixties to the present, just those who’ve held offices of country leadership, with the exception of Martin Luther King, who (in our opinion) seems to fit on the list. Who would get your vote?
