I will be speaking in Christchurch NZ (IPENZ) about interesting highway
(lack of friction)al matters if anyone would like to see the 'Bullas
Roadshow', video of lots of people in labcoats with clipboards along with
more recent $120k road testers and you will actually learn something too!

I'm glad my slant on life did not generate a tirade of abuse, just another
slant on the fine line between individuals' research activities and the
cumulative end effect on Mother Earth.... (AA Milne and the Ice Albedo
Feedback Mechanism?)

I am usually quite a restrained literary type but have to defend the use of
outrageously expensive switchgear and direct measurement devices versus
straw polls for measuring stuff.

And who the hell
> is Eric Satie, do you have a sound byte for 'Les Trois Gymnopedies' that
> you can send me?

suggest you load up Kazaa Lite (not Kazaa sensu stricto - too much spyware)
to get soundbytes.... you will however know Eric Saties little ditty....
