It seems that the U.S. National Intelligence Estimate released in December said Iran stopped its nuclear weapons program in 2003, so the US is none too bothered about blowing anything up this time around. Now why the hell Iran would continue its craptastic (read 50's technology) heavy water fission reactor when the US etc. are offering to help it build light/sweet modern reactors as long as it gives up any weapons ambitions is beyond me if they already dont have a program. To me, that would be they bluffed and won the bet. Instead, they are going to keep bluffing until the crazy Israeli guy across the table shoots them in the face. Its an interesting tactic...

I think it could be fun and informative while greatly reducing the number of accidents (especially fatal ones) on the roads every year. Right now, the driving exam is basically a joke, it means that you know what the pedals...
