    sbs in general, and the change happend apruptly... years ago, sbs had the 7.30 time slot, reserved for good docus, but than it changed to: instead of high grade docus (docus with real footage of artefacts) - semi sientific docus, produced with a style like aim and shoot pc games (computer animated pyramids and so on) i dislike docus which show 70% of the time, the "presenter" 20% animation, and only 10% the buildings or artefacts. often , if the presenter visits the artefact, it's hardly shown in good focus, but the presenter fills most of the screen, talking for minutes, and than the artefact is only shown for seconds. sbs, promotes with this, hate against germans. they show movies about holocaust deniers, and the next film, is ABOUT THE TOWER OF LONDON, AND HENRY THE 8, and it portrays those in a very good light. the tower of london, was a concentration camp, many innocent people lost ther lives there. victoria was the biggest drug dealer in history, the chinese say'd we don't want your opium, it cause suffering and death, to our people, so the brits went to war with them, with superior weapons, so the could force opium onto them. but sbs glorifies those people who comited those mass murders. let's make a thought experiment, let's kill hitler, maybe somebody else would have followed the ideas of eugenics, even in another country? you would have to go back and kill galton and darwin, but maybe the vacum would have produced a worse case scenario. like killing sadam hussain and gadafi, and you get islamic state instead. even darwinism, is very problamatic how it's portrayed, i hate it when david attenborough say's, THE MOST AGGRESSIVE MALE, GETS ALL THE FEMALES. this statement, all most a line in every nature movie, is wrong and needs to be re addressed. i wonder, how much LESS VIOLENCE WOULD BE ON THE PLANET, if this statement would not be advertised so often. the most agressive wins, this sentence, is for me a leftover from the core of EUGENICS AND DARWINISM. AND PEOPLE WHO LIKE SAYING IT ARE A BIT LIKE NAZIS!!

    The IDLH ( immediately dangerous to life or health) for Xylene is 900 ppm. The IDLH for toluene is 500 ppm, and 1100 n-hexane naphtha isn't much better. So yeah i agree inhaling solvents is bad. However xylene and toulene are aromatic hydrocarbon consisting of a methyl group and a benzene ring, basically they are metabolized from a benzyl alcohol to benzoic acid in the body and then hippuric acid for urine excretion. n-Hexane is eventually metabolised in 2,5-hexanedione, which is neurotoxic causing polyneuropathy. Of course large amounts of just about any solvent in the system will cause health issues from organ damage to CNS issues etc but theses are different compounds that are metabolized differently and therefore have different/ more severe health effects than one another. Which is why n-hexane should be treated with extra caution, especially it's vapours as it is metabolized directly into a neurotoxin. I think from a safety POV the amount of n-hexane in shellite and the potential neurotoxic effects should be more widespread and known.

    I think we're *all* liable to totalitarian thought and behaviour, the products of internalised oppression. I'll leave it at that.
