'Up' on a map is a fiction that is agreed upon.  I read that the reason 'North'='up' was to make sure Rome was higher than Jerusalem (ie Christianity>Judaism)

Okay - I have a new Olympic hero: Haley Nemra of the Marshall Islands, did really well in her 800m heat with a PB, but didn't qualify in her heat (despite the heat after her she would have won comfortably as there were only 5 participants, all the good guys pulled out)!
All the others applauded her!  :D

I don't get religeous persuaders any more.  I always argue science with them.  I think I might be on a blacklist somewhere
