I've heard about this term but don't know quite well what does it mean? Men who are ugly but good persons? Miss Bono [hello, hello!] 17:26, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
Oh, and I started reading Cyrano. The only copy I could get was in English, so it is going to take longer until I finish it. Miss Bono [hello, hello!] 17:50, 7 October 2013 (UTC)
I was surprised that they don't sell breathing masks in shops for winter gear. Searching the net, I only found a few items, but if you buy online you run the risk that it won't fit well, or that there are problems (e.g. that your glasses will fog over). So, where can you buy breathing masks that allow you to breath warm humid air when it's below -20 C outside? I need to be able to do hard exercise outside, below -20 C you risk damaging your airways and lungs. Count Iblis (talk) 17:31, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
Thanks, the one from the Swedish webshop looks worthwhile to try out. Count Iblis (talk) 23:46, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

The articles on apartheid doesn't really cover this,so I thought I'd bring it here.How did apartheid practically work in the case of foreign visitors to S.Africa? For instance,a conference is being held in South Africa-would non-whites wishing to attend be refused or separated from other delegates-or for say a company that was sending a delegation to one of its South African offices-would they have to make sure the party was all-white or they would be split up? What about say for cruise ships docking at Cape Town-would someone be there to segregate people as they got off?I'm sure there are other similar examples that could be used Lemon martini (talk) 23:17, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
Ah thanks so much-the Honorary whites pretty much seems to cover it-I hadn't heard of them before. So the strategic solution would be that if the XYZ Mining Corporation were bringing their Board of Directors to visit their South African mine,and some of them happened to be non-white,the country would just treat them as if they were white. And everybody is...'satisfied'. That clears up a lot of scenarios. Lemon martini (talk) 22:57, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
