"If you thought you were going to make it through a week without hearing about how the wily hosts of Top Gear ruffled someone's feathers, think again. According to WhatsOnTv, James May, Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond have begun receiving death threats after making disparaging comments about Wales in a recent program.
The BBC program hosts reportedly remarked that fast cars should be test-driven on Welsh roads because no one wants to live there.
That latest bit of bashing was apparently the last straw. The trio has taken turns giving the Welsh a hard time in the past, with May calling their language "baffling and dangerous" among other offenses.
The death threats are only the latest in a series of cultural mishaps that have befallen the show. Last year, Top Gear riled Muslims by donning the traditional headwear of women, and it irked Christians by portraying a baby Stig in the traditional role of the newborn Jesus. Most recently, the show invoked the ire of the Mexican ambassador to the UK by unleashing a rash of stereotypes about his countrymen.

These guys are just funsters being deliberately provocative. But humor is dangerous these days. Whining is now praised -- where once it was despised. It was particularly despised in Britain as a matter of fact. But the Left have eroded the national character with THEIR constant moans about "racism' etc.

It seems to me that if the Top Gear hosts haven't ever insulted you, it's simply because they haven't gotten to you yet. They insult everyone. At the top of their list: The hosts of Top Gear. So I don't take their insults seriously, even when it's my ox getting gored.
That said, the show is least enjoyable when they're being insulting; even their self-inflicted insults bug me. IMHO, if they would stop the insults and keep everything else, the show would be much more enjoyable.
Zeno states that for motion to occur, an object must change the position which it occupies. He gives an example of an arrow in flight. He states that in any one instant of time, for the arrow to be moving it must either move to where it is, or it must move to where it is not. However, it cannot move to where it is not, because this is a single instant, and it cannot move to where it is because it is already there. In other words, in any instant of time there is no motion occurring, because an instant is a snapshot. Therefore, if it cannot move in a single instant it cannot move in any instant, making any motion impossible.
I fail to see what Zeno's paradox has to do with it but I will leave the comment up
Zeno's paradox shows that the show Top Gear is wasting everybody's time since motion by an automobile is impossible.
The welsh are pretty rugged people thhey certialy dont need to use threats
