With all this stuff about stupid American bills trying to destroy the internet, let's look back at a stupid Canadian bill trying to destroy Quebec.
This bill was created in the 1977 and for some stupid reason it is still in effect today. Or if it isn't it was abolished VERY recently. You see, Canada's official languages are English and French. And the majority of the population speaks English. However, in the province of Quebec, the vast majority speak French. Bill 101 was put in place to "protect the French minority." It made French the official language of Quebec, so the majority if not all the schools taught in French, signs would either have to be in French or have both French and English. But the English text could not be larger than the French. Many signs were changed, some smaller things like removing English apostrophes, but some businesses had to change their names entirely. The few English speakers in Quebec have protested this bill ever since it's creation, but I have no idea if they still are, but it was a stupid bill then and it's a little better now, but it's still stupid.
TL;DR Quebec's master plan to separate.
yeah that's not very long, but whatever

« on: January 21, 2012, 02:21:46 PM »Why do you think Marilyn Monroe's death was a murder? She died of a drug overdose right?They think it could have been some sort of OD murder mainly because the window in the room was broken and the glass fell inside. As if somebody broke in. She also had the phone out when she died, but I don't think that's important. I don't really care if it was a murder or not, but many people think it was.
Read about her did she have any history of drugs before her death? If she didnt I can read about her and try to find out if she died of own causes or she was murdered. Because im not gunna waste my time on a drug overdose unless it was a murder.

I loved that stuff about mudcrabs.
I never knew being a mudcrab was punishable by death.

« on: January 21, 2012, 12:56:55 PM »Most of it still works but RTB Mod Mannager and IRC don't because of RTB 4Oh. So I guess it needs an update.
But, can't you access those in-game anyway? So it wouldn't break anything, it just kinda looses the effect.
