Still need to track the non PEAR version of Validate_ZA down. powertrip.co.za/PEAR/Validate_ZA/ is the PEAR Validate_ZA I worked on quite some time ago. Need to figure out from which project I extracte Validate_ZA.

Know, I agree Est, he was a total bastard. Just irritates me when people go on and speak about how he should “burn in hell for eternity!!!!”. I just think to myself, WTF is the use of make statements of that kind. Nothing productive will ever come out of that.

Yeah, I’d seen the LIve posters and all…just meant I’d succesfully avoided hearing about how awesome it was…
Talking about how evil PW was isn’t making his name worse, as far as I’m concerned Laertes…it’s just not glibly slipping into all-round eulogising, which seems to be the order of the day, which I think is dishonest, especially to the memory of the people who not only suffered, but died, because of or exacerbated by his decisions/’reign’. Sure, let the man ‘rest in peace’ (not that I’m sure there’s some cosmic come-uppance due), but let’s not all of a sudden start talking about him being a ’steadfast leader who stood by his principles’…
Okay. Ranted out.

I hated the apartheid as much as the next person, but the man has past, what good can come out of him making his name even worse. The only people who it will effect are his family. Nay to state funeral, but also nay to making his family name even worse than it already is. It’s all up to the higher powers now.

Mmm sorry you missed the concert Est, it was truly awesome (I’m still drunk!). Posters were lining the streets, how did you miss them? :(

I wonder if those Woolies attendants spoeged in his milk, and stuff.

Oh – just another thing…
What’s so surprising about a wobbly 90-year-old kicking the bucket? Apparently (the source is my mother so fairly reliable) he’d gotten so doddery that when he went shopping at the Woolies in George he stayed in his huge Merc in the parking lot and Woolies attendants brought stuff out to him to yay or nay…
