It is indeed based on body maths. 1 yard is the distance from your finger tip of an arm streched out to one side to the tip of your nose.

Amen.

Lol, Orville m8. I've just given up ten minutes* of this precious bank holiday weekend to re-read this thread and I'm sorry but I fail to see any provocation in what Mr. Stern has had to say. In fact I rather agree with everything he's said here.
When all that brown ale has passed through your system and you've ceased being Biffa Bacon perhaps you should re-read it too.

it's not working for you then? I'm toying with the idea of reinstalling CoD now, but I also got scared by some of the screenshots that came out

Back to topic:
In 100 years a blatherer like Nigel Farage will be forgotten, but Winston will be remembered in a 1000 years.
Politics aside do you really think this guy fits the shoes of Winston Churchill?
I highly doubt that Farage could ever write something like "A History of the English-Speaking Peoples" or "Marlborough. His Life and Times"
You call Farage a formidable speaker? C'mon you gotta be kidding, you should listen to a speech of

Winston Churchill

If you haven't got CoD installed at the moment I don't think it's worth the effort in order to be disappointed by this Alpha patch. Not that much of a problem as RoF and squad coop's in IL2 are still keeping me amused but my first thought after trying out what is supposed to represent months of re-writing was "It's gonna end up like Microsoft combat flight simulator 3!"

Thanks Herr Otto for posting someting on-topic. I just wonder if you have any knowledge of Mr. Farage other than the short clip I posted?

Well i only know his (not all of course) speeches made in the EU Parliament and it's quite almost the same: "I'm against it, the bad EU, the bad this and the bad that.The Germans dominate the EU, the Germans here, the Germans there"
Actually quite a bore imho.
It is always easy to be against something, specially when you know you never have to show your voters how you would do it better as Prime Minister.

Ooops, sorry Baron back on topic;
As a Brit I would say Nigel Farage is an engaging and rather likeable man with an excellent public speaking style who's views do represent a fair proportion of British public opinion at the moment and it's quite likely his political party - UKIP will get the biggest share of the vote at the next elections to the European parliament.
Kongo Otto has put his finger on part of Mr. Farages success; It's always easier to knock things down rather than build things up. He's also very lucky to have survived a light aircraft accident during our last general election. I expect you can Wiki him.

Personally I disagree with about 95% of the things he has to say and whilst I accept his views and opinions as sincere and honourable I suspect, in a previous time, many of the members of his party would have been only too happy to have been handing out the towels at Auschwitz.
