A conclusion

Aug 14, 2005 11:24

just read my last few entries. I don’t use this forum of communication as well as I should. I have learnt a great many things over the years and I should be sharing what i know with my friends in an attempt to enrich their lives and make the world a better place. I vow that each journal entry i write from now on will contain either a point of view on something important to a lot of people or some information of use. I will start with these two

1 - Parents and children
More and more recently i have been getting angry at how parents can treat their children. So many people i know think it is wrong to feel sad or depressed because thier parents have said so and I have had enough of it. If you feel the way you do then feel it. don’t feel guilty for the emotions you have, just accept them, feel them and move on. People do not need guilt added to the list of emotions that we have to deal with on a daily basis.

2 - Mobile phones in petrol stations
Have you ever been asked to stop using your phone in a petrol station by hysterical members of the public or station attendants?
What most people don’t realise is that there is NO WAY the signal from a mobile phone can ignite any flammable liquids. Do you honestly think that mobile phone companies would sell them if they did? if it was true they would come with a warning saying so right? but they don’t... in fact the only warnings you see are in the stations themselves. So why would the petrol stations tell you your phone is bad?...
And here it is
the majority of petrol pumps measure the fuel via cellular pulse. for all those who have not made the connection yet, this means that if your phone signal broadcasts or receives at a similar frequency then it could interfere with the pump and you would not be guaranteed an accurate measurement of fuel. maybe you pay more? maybe less. which is the more likely. So rather than be unsure that hundreds of thousands of people are getting away with a few pence extra petrol, the fuel companies will tell you that it is "DANGEROUS".
next time you are getting fuel/gas whatever you want to call it. think about that.
