"I'm ignorant about politics in this country. Since when does Democratic Alliance = Solidarity Union?" - Ramon Thomas
Re: [iAfrica] 'Star Trek Into Darkness' - http://entertainment.iafrica.com/movies...
"No problem. I hated the casting of 2009 film because I'm also hardcore Trekkie (I go to conventions). Anyway the theatre projector broke, so I could not watch it." - Ramon Thomas
Re: Joburg plans to be Africa’s ‘New York” - http://www.iol.co.za/news...
"You must admit that Joburg would not be half as much fun without these sleazy foreign nationals who so easily cross our borders on a daily basis." - Ramon Thomas
Re: [iAfrica] 'Star Trek Into Darkness' - http://entertainment.iafrica.com/movies...
"Hey Jake why do you feel so strongly about this? I was not convinced about JJ Abrams remake and new actors. The continuity is an import aspect but having no Trekkie series is a big vacuum." - Ramon Thomas
Re: Xoliswa Ayanda Bambiso from Port Elizabeth on NYDA Board - http://mype.co.za/new...
"Congratulations to Xoliswa. We need more people like her to lead by example. NYDA has assisted me on several occasion and I highly recommend the organisation to young people starting businesses." - Ramon Thomas
Re: TV presenter Vuyo Mbuli dies - http://www.iol.co.za/tonight...
"Famous quotes by Vuyo Mbuli "sharp sharp", "Goeie genade!" and full pronunciation Jacob "Gedleyihlekisa" Zuma. May your soul rest in peace and condolences to your family." - Ramon Thomas
Re: Daily Maverick - KZN University: A storm in a (Zulu) teacup - http://www.dailymaverick.co.za/opinion...
"For the longest time I've said that each province should have a compulsory indigenous language taught in primary school and optional in high school. The language should be the other than English the dominant language in the area. Zulu for KZN, Xhosa for Eastern Cape and Afrikaans for Western Cape is a good start. Do we really need two languages in grade 12 to complete matric? I don't think so." - Ramon Thomas

Re: ‘Companies need social media policies’ - http://www.techcentral.co.za/compani...
"Companies can also benefit in terms of productivity and privacy. The biggest challenge with allowing social media in the workplace is keeping private information confidential." - Ramon Thomas
Re: Jet Li opens T’ai Chi school - http://www.iol.co.za/news...
"Wow! I will go to visit this school when I go back to China this year. They should have mentioned one of Jet Li's earlier movies, Tai Chi Master (1993)." - Ramon Thomas
Re: Joburg plan to cut down on car usage - http://www.iol.co.za/motorin...
"Who are getting these tenders? If I'm not mistaken R30 billion can pay off the highway expansion and avoid eTolls all in one fail swoop. Government is the most inefficient mechanism for economic growth in Gauteng and anywhere else. Especially a government influenced by Communists." - Ramon Thomas
Re: Richard Stallman To Launch His Own Fashion Line - http://techlaze.com/2012...
"This is hilarious. And it's so cool for RMS to link to it from his own website." - Ramon Thomas
Re: Infographic: A Day In The Life Of The Internet - http://blog.hostgator.com/2013...
"How can Baidu have such a small market share with 444 million people using the Internet in China?" - Ramon Thomas
Re: [iAfrica] 'Youth disillusioned by politics' - http://news.iafrica.com/sa...
"Education is valuable, our school system failure is the problem. No politician understands the full extent of the problem, and they will never be able to remedy the situation. Parents and families are the foundation that is broken here. If parents do not teach children how to be participate in the political process, nobody will do that. In my experience the more education you are in South Africa, the less interested you are in politics. For me I stopped voting in national elections, period." - Ramon Thomas

"Where in the Console do I paste the code? I've tried pasting it but nothing happens." - Ramon Thomas
Re: Amazon awakens to advertising potential - http://businesstech.co.za/news...
"Wow! I'm surprised Amazon has not evaluated these options. Retailers in South Africa like Edgars Group is notorious for selling on customer information to 3rd parties. What people have already spent money on is more valuable than what they're thinking about at any given moment." - Ramon Thomas
Re: IT Salaries in SA revealed - http://businesstech.co.za/news...
"Who the hell is ActiveTechPros? I've never heard of them. The ITWeb Salary Survey is the definitive measuring stick for IT industry professionals. Computer Society should really be involved with the ITA if any organisations still matter." - Ramon Thomas

Re: Mxit apps: how much do developers make? - http://businesstech.co.za/news...
"This is fantastic news for local mobile app development. MXit user base was always loyal and will likely remain loyal over the medium term. It does help if you are using MXit yourself before you begin throwing around concepts for app development." - Ramon Thomas
Re: Lowest mobile broadband prices ever in SA - Technology news | Moneyweb - http://www.moneyweb.co.za/moneywe...
"This may not be obvious to most people. Please clarify whether this article refers to pre-paid or contract data bundles." - Ramon Thomas
Re: 25 000 teachers to down chalk - http://www.iol.co.za/news...
"For me I could live without unions and allow the free market to dictate. Milton Friedman's Free To Choose 10-part tv series shows clearly how inept government regulation is to the economies where they exert too much power. In South Africa the marriage of unions to ANC is double trouble." - Ramon Thomas
Re: Google ‘to buy WhatsApp for $1bn’ - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technol...
"So Google is buying Whatsapp for $1 billion. Will they still charge after the first year like they do now?" - Ramon Thomas
