I don't think it's even an open question anymore, maybe that's what he meant? :unsure:

He works for a law firm as a lawyer and has a degree. That is why we don't question his lawtalkerness.

You must have several posters blocked somehow.

No, there is a difference between questioning his skill and questioning his right to appear before a judge.

Plus, if I'm ignoring anything it's grumbler and martinus' attention whoring threads.

Edit: except for the bit where I show up to mock him for one post.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Viking, some people think Marti is a Trucker who watches movies about being a gay lawyer.

Get back to me when you have something better than "some people think".

I think it is a long running commentary that Marti isn't actually a lawyer. :huh:

I don't frequent Mary's attention whoreing threads, so I am unaware of that specific conspiracy theory.

They have TV in Poland?  :huh:
From what I've seen in movies, everyone there lives in dirt huts with no water or electricity, and the only warmth comes from burning Jews.

When I was in Poland about 10 or so years ago, I remember watching TV in the hotel. It was M*A*S*H* dubbed in Polish. But the cool thing was that they had the same guy do all the voices. Even Houlahan's.
I was in Krakow a couple of days ago. They still do that. It's not completely dubbed, you can sort of still hear the orginal actors. They seem (not knowing Polish) more like a sort of voice-over/translator but it is pretty bizarre.

I found this article about it:

Just saw the first episode. Interesting setup.

That was pretty common in Soviet Union, at least 20 years ago.  There is no pretense of dubbing, you just show the film in original language, and the same one guy will be doing what looks like a running translation.  The original language is not muted, but it is mostly voiced over. 

Incidentally, back then, there was just one guy doing all the characters for all the foreign movies, series, or soap operas.  I wonder how he managed to not lose his voice eventually, or even find enough time during his day to do all that.

Yeah. To be honest, I kinda hate the "normal" dubbing - it just seems contrived. I guess it's a matter of getting used to something from an early age.

He probably did the recording at double speed in a high pitched voice.
