Most of the 9th Fleet UK pilots are in the north of the UK so we are out of the way, the only pilot that we have not heard from should have been at school at the time and safe (hopefully). Thanks for the concern gents it is greatly appreciated.

My condolences go out for the families that have lost loved ones today, and hope the injured have a speedy recovery. I'm depressed by the recent attack, even if so far away from me. I just hope things like this won't happen again. Although the optimism there might break apart at a future attack, you can't hurt being optimistic.

I hope the party responsible for the attacks is found, captured, and tried, if not found and killed.

To Mackie,

I hear you, man and I share a lot of your concerns. I'd like to see our immigration laws looked at real hard and changed. Please understand though that this is the work of a few, for personal gains, in the name of religion. Just as the Spanish Inquisition or the Salem witch hunt (in our own country), etc. were.

Smiley · « **Reply #20 on:** July 08, 2005, 02:26:06 am »

Many of us here in the UK can't get hold of friends in London because access to the mobile phone (cell phones guys!) networks has been prioritised for the emergency services etc.

Even though I live & work 30 miles from London, we still feel the effects out here. Our London office has been closed, several of my colleagues were missing at one point yesterday (all accounted for now) & just funny little things that you think about that you might not Normally...
27 dead... i guess it doesn't sound a huge number when you try to put that into context by comparison, but human life is inmeasurable.

MajorRacal · « **Reply #22 on:** July 08, 2005, 05:12:31 am »

I was working up in Dundee in a social vacuum yesterday (trapped in a room with a succession of petrified applicants with scared bunny eyes) and missed most of the immedaite impact of what happened until I got home to Glasgow late last night.

As for the events of yesterday, words can't convey how abhorrant I find the wanton destruction of human life at the hands of another human. I'm not a religious person by any stretch of the imagination, but I can scarcely believe that people can still kill in the name of a God (no less the same God), simply because their religious and social practices are different. I suppose that's part of the problem. I don't think many people from western cultures can understand it (although people in Northern Ireland, probably have a better incling). My personal point of view on the so-called war on terror, is that there is no way forward until some form of rational common ground can be established, or one side concedes. I think most folk from the UK are well aware of just how difficult that is, particularly where (irrational) extremes of belief are involved. As Helldweller said, it will only get worse before it gets better, and as things stand, that's going to be a long way off, particularly while both sides of the idealogical argument continue to aggravate one another.

I'm happy to say that no-one I know was directly harmed or killed yesterday, and in that I can take some comfort - but I wish I could say the same for everyone else.

OlBuzzard · « **Reply #24 on:** July 08, 2005, 07:38:49 am »

Without getting into a debate over religion ( as that belongs in the "hot -n-spicy" area) let me interject this ...

The "god" that these people are promoting is NOT the same as the "God" of the Bible. The philosophies toward human life are totally different. One sent His son to die for us .. so we could have eternal life: the other expects his followers to give their sons life so their movement can simply stay alive.

Again .. there are litterally hours of debate here that would accomplish little. If one of you wish to argue that please open a theread accordingly.

I do agree that this needless slaughter of life in order to conquer others ( which is the essence of this movement at the command of extremest OBL himself) must be stopped. We can no longer sit idly by and just hope it will go away on its own. I'm not sure what the appropriate answer is. Nor do I pretend to be wise enough to offer a solution that would resolve the worlds differences in this matter.

What IS unquestionably clear is that the murder of innocents needs to be stopped.

On this matter we need to stand side by side .. and support one another. We can not let these low life thugs begin to dictate our freedoms ( or to take them away ).

thanks

i would like this thread to be kept on page one so all british members can come in and say they are cool and that they have or havent been affected so we can make sure no one has been injured.

The purpose of this topic is not to discuss religion or anything else other than the topic. It's only because religion is too interwined into some people's lives that this whole situation has developed.
Hello? Hasn't anyone ever heard of normalisation? You keep things that are meant to be separate, separate. Nothing is duplicated or involved in something unless it has a reason or need for it, and then it is only linked.

Anyway - this thread should not become a flame room for people's beliefs, it's for the UK board members to say that they are ok.
There are threads set up in other areas for you to rave all that you like. This is a modeling forum.

Sochin has put forth a good idea here, let's work on this. We're modellers, and we respect human life. We're a community, which is why this thread was started... to check on members of the community that may have been affected by this. These people are also members of other communities that were affected, and for those people affected, we should show support. I agree with the hospital ship idea, and will start a kitbash on this post haste. Loss of human life is never right in my opinion... I firmly believe in "I Shall Do No Harm."

S33K100 · « **Reply #40 on:** July 08, 2005, 04:01:27 pm »

Right I don't give a flying f**k about all the politicking going on in this thread, particularly from certain elements of the political spectrum, but as a Londoner (well, Essex, but my town is connected to the central line of the tube so...) I offer my tribute to the emergency services and those people just passing by kind enough to help out all the victims yesterday, it is a sickening act and the perpetrators will probably never be found but it shows that we are united as one people regardless of race or religion, I'm sure many of the police and hospital workers, not to mention victims were Muslims, Jews, Sikhs, Arabs, Africans and so on, as well as white Christians.

In any case, I've taken Sochin's suggestion, or a slight modification of it and made a hospital ship:

Sorry about the small size of the pics, they were taken in MODViewer, anyway, I've had the hospital ship sitting around for a few weeks actually, RogueNine inspired me to do it, but hadn't thought of a good name to use. I based the colour scheme on the HMHS Brittanic during WWI but took some creative liberty with the crosses. The model is a kitbash of the Elohim class Fire Support Cruiser I made a while back, that itself being a kitbash of parts from Wicked Zombie's Constitution, Mars and Saladin, plus some alterations to the saucer shape to give it a more TOS Constitution shape on top, I stripped the Elohim of all weapons except the saucer phasers and whited up the hull and greened up the blue bits, as I said inspired by the colours of the tragic Brittanic.

P.S. my dad was in London at the time but fortunately his tube ride ended a few minutes before the bombs went off and he was at Victoria station which was not one of the locations attacked.

P.P.S. I'll have this sent to RogueNine ASAP as he hosts all my kitbashes, hopefully will have this up for d/l soon, just have to notify WZ and get his permission first...

As many of our British friends are thinking now...My first thought after 9/11/01 was to let the Minutemen 3's out of the silo's towards the entire Middle East and eliminate that terrorist breeding ground forever..but over time..saner thoughts prevaled... I know that the Terrorists are the minority (even Hamas stood with the USA after 9/11) and usually never get what they want...but initial reactions do need to be vented...

I defended the UK back in the 80s when I was in USAFE...I spent 3 yrs there and got to know the British while I was there..

Their Government will act swiftly..and without mercy towards these criminals...(The SAS does have quite a reputation!!)

Good. By yielding to terror, you let them win. Personally, I'd never let plans change for a bombing. My wife and I are here in Edmonton, and here, we have the world's largest shopping mall, a perfect target for someone. If someone bombed it, we'd be back the first day it was opened again. Bombs don't just kill people, they disrupt their lives. Terror makes people afraid to leave their houses, and to blow anyone away who tries to enter it to tell them that it's over. You fight terrorism internally. *You* make the decision to go out. You make the decision to go back to a normal routine. You put things back to how they were before it all started, and the terrorists (no matter who they are) have lost. No terror means they have lost their goals with you. Spread it out across your town, and the terrorists have lost your town. Spread it out across your country, and terrorists have lost your country. That's what Churchill was saying more than anything during the bombings of London during the air raids... pick up the pieces, put them back on the shelves, and go back to your normal life. Enjoy family and friends, and terror will have no place in your heart. And we will win. And the British did just that, and they did.

That's the thing our modern world needs to hear more of. We have no place in our hearts for terror, and it will not win. And we will not yield to it as we go about our normal lives.

My first of two shps are almost done... just have to build the color illuminations for it.

The first one is a late TMP to TNG medical ship... I've called it the USS Britannia NCC -42270 and it's a retexture of Mackie's Chesterfield class. It's the perfect platform for a TMP-TNG era medical transport/fast evac/fast onsite mobile hospital. I'll upload it just as soon as I finish the color illuminations later tonight/tomorrow.

The second ship will be a TOS era kitbash...

Hope to see more ships as well soon...

All right, my Britannia is complete. As you may have noticed, all phasers and offensive weapons have been removed. Starforce, if you're reading this thread, can you port this ship to BC and keep the credit file intact so that they can maybe also get involved with this type of project over there as well? It'd be nice to generate a bit of support for this idea over there in that community as well..

Looking forward to see what comes next.. for me, it's the TOS kitbash to add to this thread.

Awesome start..

My second kitbash, the TOS one is almost complete as well. I used the Franz Jospeh idea of the tug from the old tech manual as a basis.. I remembered in that that he'd mentioned that the tug could be used to transport medical modules. I decided to beef up that idea a bit and make a dedicated medical transport/mobile medical hospital concept. Started with Mackie's Alamo as a basis because it was good, flat and wide, which is what I needed. Then added the hanger/tube attach points from Lord Schtupp's TOS Ptolemy tug, cloned it, and cloned it again to get this... a ship I've temporarily named the Bethune.

More texture work is needed, I need to work on the tubes to add medical insignia, plus also change the name to something permanent, add Starfleet Medical to the tubes etc.. but the base kitbash is complete.

Almost done... next it's generating the color illuminations...

(edit: and completed. This is the TOS era Hope Class USS Bethune hospital ship... I decided to keep the name the same after all. Made sense in the long run.)

We're deeply sorry to hear that Makie !

This truly is a trying time for all of you in the UK.

please accept my condolences.

My condolences go out to you and your family Mackie.

welll thanks... its not like im British or anything but with 9 aunts we kind of tend to spread out.
the cousin i spoke of was originally born in Sweden but lived the past few years in UK and had a wife (i dont know if they had any children) there so apparently whats left of him will also be buried there aswell... the remains were found from the worst subway wreckage and then later identified. I wasnt told much so i dont even remember the name of the damn place >:/
and well, how did i know him? every few year our family and relatives around the globe hold a bit of a get together here where I live (Finland, South-Savo) since this is where most of us came from.
I quess the next time we get together there will one less and one more to remember.

I dont even know why im spilling the details but it feels kind of awkward. while it may be sad for me its my mother whos taking it really hard.... :/

My condolences Mackie to you and your family, even if you didn't know the guy, family is family.

Hey Mackie, sorry to hear about your cousin. May he rest in peace. May God grant peace to your mother... and you.

Mackie · « **Reply #66 on:** July 12, 2005, 12:29:08 pm »

yer... i been thinking. Life just now was strangely and cruelly ironic (?) to me. I mean im one with specially loud anti-war views (even if for different reasons than say a "generic liberal") and then i seem to be the only one in this thread who managed to loose a relative. if that makes any sense at all. ;/

and well... thats about that.

Are you guys over there ok? I heard of just one Injury, but thought I better ask you all to check in again.

The bombers are home grown supposedly 'British'. The UK has been too accepting of their ways to the point that they live here and take advantage of our great state benifits yet slag off our way of life to the point they think they can justify slaughtering dozens of innocents. Im all for acceptance but it needs to go both ways. Makes me sick, and I offer my condolences to you mackie. I just missed todays attacks, I was meant to go see my gf who lives in Kent, and to do so I have to travel through London. In the end we decided to wait until saturday. Im just so glad she was no where near them this time and 2weeks ago. Im just glad that they didnt set off their weapons as they had intended.

Those who engage in such cowardly acts are British in name only. They have shown themselves to be enemies of the state and should have their citizenship revoked.

One of my FPS-clan buddies lives a half mile from one of the stations that got hit today...he said he still had no problems getting home...and of course only one person was injured...

If you guys will excuse this old man for being so grumpy ...

I would personally like to give those idiots a birds eye view of a daisy cutter ! Like a mail man delivering bad news !
