No... It works to make crap. Read the labels!

There once was a guy from MobilRead,
who road into town on a trusty stead,
the font was all wrong,
he had forgotten the song,
and damn it he'd spilled all his soup.

ahhh spring is here, the sun is out, the birds are singing, and the flowers are blooming, the air is also warmer which means that the POS air conditioning system in the building will turn the basement (where my office is) into a 55 degree meat locker that is unfit to work in without your fingers turning numb, oh and let's not forget the sound of the jet engine that comes from the duct work above my head now. Of course, if we turn it off, the upstairs offices rapidly reach 80 degrees.

Time to bring in the space heater again. That will be about 15 space heaters running for 8 - 9 hours a day, 5 days a week - I wonder what it would cost them to just fix the stupid AC in the first place.

When I was in grad school I worked summers in the research library on campus - 8 floors plus basement. They kept it SO cold (to keep the humidity down) that you could identify library employees on campus since they were wearing long pants and carrying heavy sweaters in July & August.
We tried using space heaters, but one morning apparently everyone turned their heater on at 8:00 simultaneously - and blew every circuit breaker. They were then forbidden. [Hidden under desks]

National election just been called in the UK for May 6th.

Democracy is great; the right to choose between being punched in the face, or kneed in the groin for the next five years.

Nope. There's a maximum term of five years, but the incumbent Prime Minister can choose to cut and run before the five years is up.

It's basically a case in the last year or two of waiting for something to happen that will make you look more electable than the other party, and hoping it comes along (or you can manipulate something in time) before your time runs out and you have to go to the country.
