Well, I'm probably out of date again, but two letters of the string
were allocated to a town or region.  My home town had DC and XG
assigned, so you always knew where AXG 559E was originally registered.

The local office would hand out numbers using one of the 20-odd acceptable 
letters of the alphabet (I, O and a couple of others were not used)
and the 999 possible numbers.  The suffix letter above represented
the year (1967) and was superseded by a prefix letter scheme in the
early eighties.  Any oddball numbers like RAD 10 (some radio personality
had that one) are holdovers from an earlier time: depending on the
compliance of your Motor Vehicles office, you could buy numbers from
their owners and transfer them to your car.  To the best of my
knowledge, the UK has never called in numbers and reissued plates like
many US states did recently.  Numbers stayed with their vehicles and
occasionally outlived them.

The Grauniad today reports

> MINISTER HAILS RECORD PASSES IN A LEVELS

As I understood it, there is no quantifiable way to compare this
years exams with last years (they have to be different :-) ) so
the grading is done by assuming that there are enough candidates 
to make a statistically predictable set of results, taking the
number of brownie points allocated to each candidate, and plotting
them. Then the standard results curve is stuck on top and the 
thresholds are declared. If the proportions are different, surely
all the Minister is crowing about is that a different curve is now
being used?

If so, then it would be particularly interesting if Government
decides not to put any more funding into education 'as it is 
doing so well'.

Also in the same article,

> ...AS levels are at the same standard as A levels but involve
> roughly half the work.

What is this nonsense? Can I have some exams at the same standard
as A Levels but only involving 1% of the work please? 

We'll call them APhd Levels...

But notice the titles you cited.  All of them are either science
fiction, spy shows, or comedies.  The SF and spy shows appeal to a very
narrow and generally enlightened audience.  Not what I would call the
majority of Americans.  And all of these shows including the comedies
are show in the USA on public television.  Again, not something that
reaches into most American households.  I don't see a basis for your
claim that American television is any more Britonized than it has ever
been.  Public television has borrowed (almost depended) on the BBC for
as long as I can remember, and there is no trace of British TV on any
of the commercial stations.

Basically what utter one sided gob shite.

Both sides are guilty of of human rights abuses, though the publicly seen
ones all seems to be Serbian run (to quote the Serb army guy yesterday
"Don't picture me" - Mr Innocent eh !!!. To post this sort of one
sided crap does nothing to help solve the problems on Yugoslavia.

Final point. `"Ethnic Cleansing" against Bosnian-Serb villages and town'

Note the word BOSNIAN in Bosnian-Serbs. It ain't your country (as Croatia
wasn`t). Get out and leave people alone. If they choose to live there,
they should like it or lump it.

  Is it true that some American newspapers have reported widely accepted 
stories about Prince Edward being homosexual?  It would seem unlikely
that the UK papers would voluntarily refrain from publishing such a 
story.
Some of them seem to like royal stories, scandals and attacking 
homosexuals - this would allow them to do all three.

   Alternatively it could be false, just another of the 
 "he's not married, so he's obviously homosexual" type story/gossip.

   The reason I ask is not because I think there is anything wrong
with Prince Edward being homosexual (if he is), but because I am
curious as to whether a form of censorship is preventing a story being
known.     J F Kennedy, Lloyd George and Edward VII were known to 
be 'womanisers'
by the top people, but at that time the press refused to publish such
stories.

   Boney M and Don McLean both had songs using the "waters of Babylon" bit and 
surely you're referring to "Turn, Turn, Turn" by The Byrds which took its 
lyrics from Ecclesiastes. I don't know if it was a hit in Britain or not, but 
some nun had a hit with the Lord's Prayer set to a rather folksy tune in the
early 1970's and The Alan Parson's Project's first album was poetry by Edgar
Allan Poe set to music. 
   I, personally, don't agree with the statement that lyrics hardly ever sound
good 10 years later, but won't bother listing any pop songs I feel are still
relevant unless someone asks me to.

	There is an element of truth in this, but it is a much more
sophisticated operation than your description implied.  The examiners
are not idiots, and they know (a) that standards have to be maintained;
(b) which side their bread is buttered.  A *lot* of analysis is done,
both qualitative and quantitative to balance (a) and (b).  There are
too many different boards and different subjects involved, together with
evolving patterns of entries, for simply fitting a normal curve to be
the answer.

	The students do half the work because they cover half the syllabus
(but to the same standard);  those people who take any notice at all of
AS's count them as half an A-level.  Actually, from my point of view as a
selector, they are a confounded nuisance;  but it's going to get worse in
the next few years with GVQs, NGVQs, and zillions of other new scraps of
paper joining the existing A's, AS's, BTec, HND, Bacc, CSYS, etc, etc.

For me, those were the days. I started watching Dr. Who on Ch. 2 <PBS>
in Los Angeles, California, in about 1975. I moved a year later and it
was over 5 years before I saw it again. I still think Pertwee was the best.

Australians call it a "nature strip". You could also try "soft shoulder".
"Verge" just refers to the side of a country road, otherwise the phrase
"grass verge" wouldn't need to exist.

  As they only have 600,000 (?) people they had thought before

   HOW MANY OTHER candidates for independent statehood are there?

1. Eritrea is due this year or next to hold a referendum on leaving

2 Quebec - Does it still look as if Quebec is going to leave Canada?
3 Puerto Rico - Is this not supposed to be holding a referendum soon?

I don't know of any others who might gain independence in the short

Obvious long term candidates are
  Catalonia, Scotland, Wales, East Timor, New Caladonia.
