jmoore: It has nothing to do with mobile phone.
EDITOR—The claim in the letter by Esprit et al, that mobile phones are a risk when used in a storm, is misleading. Although some people speculate that mobile phones pose a risk when used outdoors because lightning is attracted to metal, mobile phone handsets generally contain insignificant amounts of metal.
Following worldwide media interest in the letter, the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) responded, saying lightning is not attracted to people carrying mobile phones: “People are struck because they are in the wrong place at the wrong time. The wrong place is anywhere outside. The wrong time is anytime a thunderstorm is nearby.”
The medical profession is well aware of the misinformation on this topic as pointed out by Cooper. The types of injury observed in the letter are also well known and Cooper also points out that no lightning danger is inherent to mobile phones.
Although many reports of lightning injuries affect people who are using mobile phones, these reports represent the ubiquity of mobile phone usage and of their users' inattentiveness to weather conditions and have nothing to do with the phones themselves.
Furthermore, the claim that the Australian Lightning Protection Standard recommends mobile phones.should not be used during storms is incorrect. The standard (AS/NZS 1768-2003, not AS/170 as cited) does not make any such recommendation. It advises people to use mobile phones instead of conventional corded telephones during storms because conventional phones pose a well documented risk.

Tellwhat: No I don't think we should do away with it
What I think is that I have never seen a WHITE person in my life but I have seen Caucasians. Basically I'm saying that the so-called white people aren't really colour white as many look reddish,yellow,orange than actual white.
And then the fact that there are actual so called blacks that aren't black.
There can be yellow, chocolate, brown, black Africans. When I see a very fair Nigerian I don't see a black man despite he's a so called black man
Likewise I don't see Caucasians as white
I don't know if we're understanding each other. Anyways we can agree to disagree since we can't necessarily change things by simply debating on nairaland
The fact is the so called white try to attribute everything good and pure as white. While attributing evil and negativity to colour black. Even though they the Caucasians have commited more atrocities in human history.
If a fair or yellow complexioned Nigerian person tells you they're not black it will seem like inferiority complex whereas they aren't actually black in complexion
What about Asians why don't we call them pink, what about Arabs and Latinos. The world is not black and white. I see no reason we should be calling ourselves black race when we can either be Africans,afro etc which is more dignified. Not to say that black is entirely bad though LOL at bolded. You're repeating yourself over. Same thing the guy said. Good night. |

Tellwhat: Maybe I still don't get your actual point but regardless I just want to drive a point that one can as well decide to come to terms that most Caucasians are not actually white. Likewise if you aren't black you're free to not see yourself as one regardless of the classification. Who classified us as blacks if not the white and then classifies themselves as whites despite many of them look more reddish and orange than actual colour white . And yet always associate everything black with negativity and white with positive things like angel etc Yes, you don't. You, like the other poster, struggle with the concept of CLASSIFICATION. Start from there. You think we should do away with it because of its arbitrariness and stick to descriptive naming only. I can't even tell you the chaos that will ensue in academia and everyday communication if we follow your approach. |

seunmsg: He did little or nothing as governor of Anambra state. He was an unpopular and uninspiring governor like Ikpeazu, Okowa etc during his time. If we are to rank top 29 governors since 1999, he won’t even make it to the list.
After leaving office, he rebranded and started talking about China and giving fake statistics. There is a reason is campaign has never been about what he achieved as governor but what China did. He has no record to run on.  |

Tellwhat: How did you jump to this conclusion
Basically he's saying there isn't anybody that's colour white. Caucasians look more orange than actual white
The so called whitest person is said to even be an African or a so called black You, sir/ma, do not get it. At all. RACE is a CLASSIFICATION (Longman dic: the act or process of dividing things into GROUPS according to their TYPE). Ever heard the phrase "nominal realism"? Something is what everyone agrees to call it. I announce myself as black always but I know my skin colour is far from black. But my older brother's skin is actually close to the colour black. Yet, we both belong to the same GROUP: black. That is because "black" here is not actually a colour but a CLASSIFICATION, an IDENTITY. Note that saying "Caucasian", "Negroid", etc. is just another form of classification, the one preferred by anthropologists and sociologists. |
