If we buy someone an Ipod over here, will it work in Ireland/England...and I don't mean the electrical power source.
-
Only if an Americanng shows you savages how to use it properly...

Yes.
Just make sure they have a firewire equipped computer....
I am not sure if the power supply is multiple voltage, but you can charge via computer or car attachment adaptor anyhow.

And we'll show you Americanngs how to build a washer/dryer in a single unit that's the size of a Americanng undercounter automatic dishwasher, we'll never teach you how to build well crafted automobiles that look and handle beautifully though....maybe the Japanese will do that for you.

perhaps we should all watch this tonight on pbs:
Rebels and Redcoats: How Britain Lost America
With vivid dramatizations of battles, eyewitness accounts, original documents and paintings, REBELS AND REDCOATS: HOW BRITAIN LOST AMERICA tells the story of the American Revolution from an unusual point of view - that of the British losers. Presented by renowned British military historian Richard Holmes, this four-part series airs on PBS Wednesdays, June 23-30, 2004, 9:00 p.m. ET in two-hour segments.
REBELS AND REDCOATS focuses on the military struggle - the soldiers, the leaders, the tactics and the strategy of this grand conflict, but it also explores the painful conflicts within the American people themselves. It tells of the bitter disappointments of black slaves in the South, promised freedom by the British, and takes viewers inside the vicious struggles of brothers, friends and families forced to choose sides between loyalists and rebels.
The series traces the ups and downs of this drama from the beginning of the insurrection in Boston to the surrender of the British forces to Washington in Yorktown. REBELS AND REDCOATS puts the war in the context of the world events that so affected its outcome, and that helped to put a powerful new player, the United States, on the world map.
Says executive producer Zvi Dor Ner, "Most Americans know only one story line when it comes to the American Revolution; I hope that REBELS AND REDCOATS will surprise and delight them by proposing a different one, a story of the War of Independence told from the point of view of the loser, viewing the events that separated America from Britain more as a civil war than a revolution."

it's pbs, what do you expect when funding something blatantly un-american?
-
Britain was not really interested in fighting the pesky colonists so hired German mercenaries for the war. Settlers of the new world recruited the French to help them in their cause. Besides, the British and American settlers were one in the same so the British soldiers were not too enthusiastic about fighting their own.
Nobody was beaten or defeated, the British basically got tired of it so just sailed home to leave the American/French to claim victory.
In brief, it's the only war the French ever won, and they beat the Germans...GO FIGURE!
I was told this by an American tour guide at Gettysburg, which I found interesting, and pretty amusing.

In terms of natural resources, global economy and global positioning, I would have to say that getting bored and going home, if true, were about the biggest mistakes the Brits ever made.

USA ALL THE WAY!!! until somebitch is offended, then we lose...
damn that mel gibson....when someone says jesus or catholic i think passion....whenever someone says revolutionary war i think The Patriot.

"Police said no motive has been confirmed, although evidence suggested the murder was the result of a domestic dispute after Pulaski erased the contents of Mathersâ?? iPod."
I'd say I'd kill him too, but I'd have the songs backed up on my Mac...no harm, no foul. ;)

Yeah it'll work and it'll be better cuz the ones they sell in europe have some sort of volume limiting built into them due to some law somewhere.
