    Either is good. Re: the beard thing The quantity and quality of facial hair seems to rise and fall, possibly in conjuction with the phases of the moon. I believe this may hold the key to something very profound. If only we can understand the reasoning behind the removal and subsequent regrowth of beard, we may be much closer to understanding what exactly motivates the bearded treeman, or Homus arboreus beardyanus

    Ha, thats dedication for you! Personally, I eat my breakfast in the truck on the way to work. Much safer, although spreading jam on the croissants and changing gear simultaneously can be tricky.

  8. The answer to that question is long and complex, if you dare delve into the angry kid thread you may find what you seek.

    name that rope

    Well, when you own as many ropes as me, it is easy to get some of them mixed up. I'm sure you have much the same problem!

    Its worse than we feared. Temporal leaks are evident even at signature level, owing to particule matter leaks accelerating at infinite speed through a quantum quarkspace. Its all gone a bit pete tong.

    Hmm, further disruptions in the space time continuum seem to be evident. Further research is needed here methinks. I'll consult Hex, you light some dribbly candles!

    If this is the trousers of time, I think we have just reached the knees! Expect further cosmic chaos!

    Be careful in there Jason. Any slight disturbance in the balance of the matrix coupling and the very fabric of the universe will be torn apart, sucked into a black hole, and compressed into the size of a single woodlouse. Plus we would all end up with Mr Ed's arse.......

    name that rope

    Marlow military abseil rope, same stuff we used for the zipline at the last get together.
  22. Attached directly to an anchor, the load exerts force in one direction, down. Attached elswhere, and then run through a crotch, the leg of rope with the load attached to it exerts the same force, and the other leg of rope exerts an equal force on the anchor. (assuming there is no friction in the anchor point. If the force on either side becomes unequal the load moves. Imagine you are lowering a piece with a pulley. To lift it by pulling your end of the rope down requires the same effort as it would to lift the piece directly. The pulley at the top is effectively doing both jobs simultaneously, therefore the loading is twice that of the actual weight of the load.
  23. That should do it!
  24. Oh dear... .....Well, when a mummy doggy and a daddy doggy love each other very much...................................................................birds....................................bees............................blah.......................................flowers......................................reproductive..............................and then a little while later mummy doggy has lots of puppies! Hope that was helpful!
  25. The quadski is what you would buy if you had a quad, a jetski, and a lake, and still had enough loose change to buy one on a whim.
