BS: Make uip your own mind

Not being treated as suspicious, only means that no third party appears to be directly involved.

Make up your own mind

Isn't there a limit of starting one thread per day?

I'm not against two threads. But two threads on the same topic is a bit much.

John! Chill out!!! Please!! Now you are making me agree with PDQ!!

The original thread is closed owing to malign influences ;)

The "one thread per day" policy is not mine. It's been here a long time.

Besides, I can't find "uip" in the English language dictionary.

I guess "uip your own mind" is something people did a lot back in the 1960s.

So you want this thread closed too Jack. RIP common decency, and Nurse Jacintha Saldanha.
BTW PDQ, my old woodwork master used to say. "The man who never made a mistake, never made anything"

I think you made your point in the last thread. As I recall in that thread, I called for decency for Nurse Jacintha Saldanha.

Cheers mate... and chill... please.

Yeah OK Jack, but it just upsets me that some idiot who shares a brain cell on a part time basis, disrespects the death of any other person.
PARTICULARLY someone following such an essential and worthwhile carrer, as that of a nurse. Most nurses are worth 10 of your average Joe, or Josephine.

Certainly true. I have nurses in my family.

But are you not a little to blame for this disrespect for assuming that she had killed herself when the article was taking pains NOT to say that? (I'm not saying she didn't. I am simply saying that we do not yet know that she did.) Krinkle appeared to jump to his conclusions by responding to what you had said rather than reading the article for himself. But give him time. He is a relatively new member albeit a slow learner. Perhaps at some point he will learn to think before he argues.

I don't mean any disrespect.
I don't blame the DJ's.
Let's get a death cause.
Then we can speculate.

pdq... "one thread per day"... where did you get that shit?

pdq... "I guess "uip your own mind" is something people did a lot back in the 1960s."... WTF are YOU on if you can't figure out a simple typo?

Re nursing... HARDEST job there is short of combat. First hand knowledge and just common sense for anyone with much life experience.

Hank the Crank... could you just TRY to be a logical, thinking, compassionate person for ONCE?

Your speculation is unlikely to be productive or informative, "Krinkle." Just a waste of space on the page.

The number of threads a day is open to interpretation - depending on subject matter and intent. And if they are above or below the line.

SRS

Whatever the facts behind this, nobody, including a pair of inane DJs, could reasonably expect that a childish prank like that might result, even indirectly, in anyone's death.

All the poor woman did was to answer the phone and transfer the call to the nurse who actually gave out the information.

"Southern Cross Austereo (SCA) and 2Day FM are deeply saddened by the tragic news of the death of nurse Jacintha Saldanha from King Edward VII's Hospital and we extend our deepest sympathies to her family and all that have been affected by this situation around the world.

Chief Executive Officer Rhys Holleran has spoken with the presenters, they are both deeply shocked and at this time we have agreed that they not comment about the circumstances. SCA and the hosts have decided that they will not return to their radio show until further notice out of respect for what can only be described as a tragedy."

Just got this off a link in a National Post (Canada) article.

So far we have only a timeline and the information that she took the phone call.

"Two notes were found in Mrs Saldanha's room and another among her possessions, the court was also told."

Unless those notes indicate motive and are released, it is useless to speculate about why she took such drastic action.

"The mother of two's family has been given typed copies of the three handwritten notes by the police and has read the contents, the Guardian claimed."
Typed copies...yeah right!
Too much hassle to run a photocopy?
WTF?

Said notes/letters are evidence in a police inquiry. In order to avoid over handling, and/or possible contamination of evidence. I can understand why it might be the best way to proceed.
