Are there any Diogenes Clubs today?
(Men) from shyness, some from misanthropy, have no wish for the company of their fellows. Yet they are not averse to comfortable chairs and the latest periodicals... No member is permitted to take the least notice of any other one.
1 AnswerOther - Cultures & Groups9 years agoInvisible PIN number? What now?
Through the post I received my credit card PIN number letter. After removing the tab and scratching off the surface to reveal the number, there was in fact no number. It was invisible. I have informed them by phone and another one will come. But if that is also invisible, what then?

My current a/c developed from Giro into Alliance and Leicester into Santander ( a Spanish Bank, and Spanish banks are in difficulty). Money comes into my a/c and less money comes out, so I am always in credit. But is this bank going to be in difficulties, and will I lose all my money.

3 AnswersOther - General Health Care1 decade agoFish Odour Syndrome: are there any good treatments?
My body seems to smell of fish and other odours.
I keep very clean, dental Hygiene scrupulous, anti- perspirent, tea-tree etc. So I'm trying my best.
Problem is one cannot be sure how oneself really smells, until it becomes very strong.
However, I'm trying activated charcoal capsules and maybe they help.

13 AnswersJazz1 decade agoIs neo-paganism amongst the least damaging of religions?
I have been very impressed by a recent question and thread about paganism. The responses were considered and calm and full of wisdom IMHO.
This contrasted with the "hate and contradiction and cult-like behaviour of the christians" as one answerer put it.
Perhaps neo-pagans can further persuade us in the values of their religion.

Do you think that many people have lost their Christian Faith after being persecuted by Spirutual Abuse (.com and forum).
Preachers who use their social position and power, both in the pulpit and in the church's gossip groups, often do so to the advantage of themselves, their families, their close friends. This is hypocracy and corruption.
