Re: Sir Patrick Moore. Gone.

Maybe my very keen interest in astronomy colours this but some ill chosen words from someone from another era, who fought for this country, who lost loved ones during the war may not be acceptable but perhaps not deserving the disgusting comments I have read hear. Sick of this in my humble opinion ...

Re: Sir Patrick Moore. Gone.

No I'm not I'm simply pointing out that the phrase "If you've got nothing nice to say then say nothing" is ridiculous. Everyone has a right to voice an opinion even if the opinion is not "nice", Moore voiced his and I said what I thought of it. Btw he regularly courted controver...

Re: Sir Patrick Moore. Gone.

You have a point of course, if you have suffered losses yourself then who are we, who get our history through books, to pontificate ? However I still believe that condemning an entire nation just because of such an incident, whilst understandable in the immediate aftermath, is ridiculous decades lat...

Haven't heard a decent new album by anybody including the Stranglers since "Once" by Nightwish in 2004. Most modern music is shite. Everything I've heard this year by anyone is crap.

Re: Sir Patrick Moore. Gone.

Ribery, you're being a little OTT - why comment on this thread if all your going to do is constantly go on about some stupid comment he made in his 89 years on this planet. Now you're tarring him with the same brush as Jimmy Saville Jim Sorry Ribery, but your comments hit a raw nerve with me. When ...

Re: Sir Patrick Moore. Gone.

Sorry Ribery, but your comments hit a raw nerve with me. When I was a kid, I remember my Mum saying to me 'If you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all' . With Sir Patrick Moore, I want to celebrate his life as a doyen of astronomy. I'm not interested in his views on things...
