Emergency Banana Productions

Heh, as you can see, I also went for the post option rather than the comment option, in order to respond to McPieGod’s response to mua comment on – well, scroll down the page a bit and see.

1. Freezing, eh? That sounds like February last year. Note: I never denied the climate is changing; for Pie’s sake, it’s always changing. (Before any of you greenies pipe up – no, the last phrase is not a quote from the The Great Global Warming Swindle.)

2. It doesn’t just stop at the eucalypts. Some other plants depend on fire to flower properly – such as the grasstrees Xanthorrhoea and Kingia, and the rare Melaleuca deanei. Others still are killed by fires but have seeds that only germinate reliably after a fire, so require intermittent burns at regular intervals. So the trick with biodiversity is to not burn too frequently nor too rarely. Mnyeh.

3&4. I think you missed my point a bit. The houses I was talking about would scarcely do better in Britain (if only because they are useless for keeping you warm even in the Australian, let alone British, winter). And therefore, they are not the sort of houses that had existed in mother England in colonial times. As you correctly point out, though, these cereal-box houses are a cheap modern invention, to be purchased by the poorer middle and bottom classes. Well, you see, that’s the problem with capitalism. By contrast, the housing in the former Soviet Union, while far from luxury, was actually built properly to keep out the elements, and a lot more egalitarian besides (even though there was that privileged bureaucracy). Some people are indeed more equal than others, I should guess.

5.I’m not sure that what you’re referring to should be termed “common sense” – not as how I understand it, anyway. Terminological differences, damn ‘em. As for the bit about the anti-robot revolution – you do hate sport a lot, don’t you?

6.Get some exercise, like I did on me bike in Frankston yesterday!!!

Respectfully yours (but only to a point),

*Oh My Non Existent God (abbrev).

One agreement which I had with Azarov and Mechlord (well maybe not mechlord) about this site was that when we did our first thing which would offend religious people, I would post the following video. The video is not much chop by modern standards, but the song itself is AMAZING. Ever since Azarov used the phrase “OMNEG” (which I taught him by the way), I feel that our religious reader (Neurophagus Archaedes is a non-practicing Christian) might have been offended…

XTC AWAY!

XTC “Dear God”

I know that there is a way to embed that, but I have yet to find it.

Mercury’s cool. We could use it as such.

“Hey God of Pie, I got the new Spyro game!”

“Mercury”

1) Seriously, have you ever touched mercury? It has the weight and surface tension of a tank in a bottle. Imagine the liquid metal terminator from terminator 2 but better, bottlable and less likely to violently slaughter you. (Less, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it managed to mould itself into some sort of robot death machine)

2) Stick your fingers in it and it pushes back, pull them out and they’re dry.

3) Bioaccumulation. When there’s mercury in a harbour and the food chain causes big fish to have a lot of it. Which then posions people. I told you the fish were trying to kill us.

4) Ball bearings float on it! Elements do not get any better than this!
