Can I just point out that even now, the No camp is leading in the polls.

Scots are deeply, horribly divided now and it's 100% the SNP's fault. Whoever wins, no one person or group speaks for "the Scots".

I don't think those in the rest of the UK have any understanding at all of just how unpleasant things are here at the moment. The anxiety and tension here are palpable. People are horribly worried.

Whatever happens I think its horrible and sad that half the country is going to lose out so badly here.

'Half' might be stretching it a bit.

Once the numbskulls who are considering a protest vote give their heads a wobble things will be fine.

Salmond will then do the honorable thing and this issue will die a death.

.scot, surely?

By convention all country domain names are two letters. ".sc" is already taken as are ".so", ".sl" and ".st" so it's hard to see what else is available. ".al" (for Alba) is Albania.

However, in the grand scheme of things, it is a fairly minor issue compared to the thousands of other matters which will need sorting out. Re-engineering the internal workings of this island is going to cost billions.

Billions that could have been used for constructive things such as schools, hospitals, sports facilities. It is terrible to see how a tiny minority can cause so much havoc to a country. I always thought we live in a democracy but what is happening right now is more akin to mob rule than democracy.

The Deputy First Minister's comments followed reports that Prime Minister David Cameron was now coordinating the No campaign from Downing Street. This week it has emerged that the Conservative leader has been behind moves to persuade retailers to publish statements warning about price increases in an independent Scotland.

If the Yes side scrape a win then I doubt that the other almost half of your country forced into a future they do not want and cannot reverse will forget that either.
