Talk:London sewer system

message: Thames would want to raise the money involved through increased prices. The regulator Offwat is sceptical of their abilities as they fail to meet current repair targets.
The Mayor is happy to blame Thames Water for any shortcomings but also wants to avoid taking any for the massive disruption that installing a new sewer system would have on traffic.

If the gas is burning already, then there is hardly change for a gas explosion. Its nowadays "green energy".

replies: text: No, not correct. Please see :Sewer gas destructor lamp for the real story. However, even had it been true that would not have negated the possibility of an explosion in a poorly ventilated sewer. Explosions occur when the flammable gas and oxygen coexist within a critical concentration range and are then exposed to a source of ignition. A lamp of safety design could still potentially burn such gas without it causing an explosion. The best analogy is the :Davy lamp that could burn in a dangerous gas air mixture without igniting it, yet a stray spark outside of the lamp could cause a catastrophic explosion as regrettably sometimes happened - see :Parc Slip colliery.  Velella  Velella Talk   20:07, 1 June 2017 (UTC)

Talk:The Sum of All Fears (video game)

message: In the section on the gameplay, the first sentence states that The Sum of All Fears is simplified in relation to the Ghost Recon series. The next sentence remarks that there is no planning phase and that the player executes a preplanned scenario. To my recollection this is no different from Ghost Recon that does not have a planning phase. On the other hand I believe that Rainbow Six includes an opportunity to plan the mission. I guess my question is whether or not Ghost Recon in the first sentence of the gameplay section should be changed to Rainbow Six?--Henry Berthelsen (talk) 08:35, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Politics of Montenegro

message: "The Politics of Montenegro is the politics in Montenegro."
 What benefit does this sentence bring to the reader?
:Exactly what I was thinking, but I know nothing about Montenegro so can't do anything. Skinnyweed 16:56, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

message: 1) I understand from this and the Montenegro Article that the Legislative Branch is unicameral. In this article it is referred to as Parliament, consistant with the broader terminology as a Parliamentary Government, while it is also referred to as the Assembly. I believe this should be spelled out along the lines of "The Legislature of Montenegro consists of a single chamber called the Assembly, members of which are called Deputies, which operates within the Parliamentary structure of government to (s)elect the Prime Minister, Cabinet Members..."
2) This article states that "One Deputy is elected per 6,000 voters", yet this does not seem to be the case. Actual ballots cast in 2016 would result in about 65 deputies (388/6 = 64.66), while registered voters would result in 88 deputies (529/6 = 88.18). There must be some other factor affecting the number of deputies in the Assembly. The article doesn't state what this other factor or factors might be. To be honest, I had hoped that the number of deputies would have based upon the number of votes cast as that would provide some entertainment value in the quadrennial change in the size of the legislature and more importantly, provide a real incentive to increase voter turnout.
3) The article goes on to state that the number of Deputies has been reduced, which does not seem to be the case as the number of Deputies has been constant at 81 following both the 2016 and 2012 elections.

It seems (from the above) that they released OS/2 versions with their own version numbers, that is duplicating the numbers for their DOS products. As I don't have any of their original products, I can't verify what the packaging called it. Perhaps "Borland C++ OS/2 2.0"? That would have reduced the confusion.

Talk:Manthara

message: Manthra was the maid in the court of Kaikayi the queen of ayaodhya and is held responsible for convincing kaikayi to ask Dasrataha to send Rama into exile for 14 years. In reality it was Indra the king of gods who requested her to do so as this would give Rama a way to face Ravana and thus kill him. Although manthra agreed to perform Indra bidding but she cursed Indra that as he is forcing her to do a task that is not right he will never be prayed in any temple or hindu family. This is the reason that although Indra is the king of gods is never prayed in any Hindu temple.
