My apologies LYM, it was India not China that changed the names of provinces to be called states.

Re: Future energy sources?

As I said, very little difference between states and provinces. China as an example renamed provinces and called them states....same, same. You are going way off topic again Khun Whistler. For your information, you are incorrect. China has Provinces, not states. Hope this helps, China has 33 admini...

I trust the following helps: What is the difference between Province and State? There is a difference between the power s...

On every public space, every cemetery plot and village green, the daffodils are in bloom. These flowers are cultivars but in a handful of places, the rare wild daffodils can still be seen growing in plenty. The wild plant, Narcissus pseudonarcissus, is smaller than most cultivated types. Two-toned, ...

You also have to ask the question of how these squatters first gained entry into the the house since they were not born in it and were not invited into the house, by the Owner or another Authorized person, that first time.

Astrange music rang out over the Howardian Hills. Sounding like the tooting of bugles, it was the cries of a flock of whooper swans starting their long migration home.
