Lovely. Unfortunately the system won't let me give you any more karma right now. Perhaps there's a deep philosophical meaning to that....

Patricia could write a whole sequence, and call them "Item Not Found".

I'll karma her for you, Neko (well, actually, I'm doing it for myself, but I'll merge the thought ).

Cheers,
Marc

add my thought to that as well. i gave her karma for something else too recently and was a bit frustrated not to be able to for this. that often happens. perhaps i should just make a habit of giving patricia karma once a day on the first post i see, as a sort of blanket coverage.

patricia, i would love to read the series "item not found". you could make it into an ebook.

Marc, please stop tinkering with the settings.

Family are now buying books full of pictures of cute pandas, and the guy in front of me at one of the Book Festival Events asked about the use of images to mis-lead people include in his list the use of "photos of cute pandas".

No. (What are settings for, if not to tinker with? You should see all the buttons, lights, switches and dials on this thing!)

I would give you some cough sweets, but actually the llamas stole them. They told me that some evil "similar to a rat doing base-jumping without parachute" things forced them to, but I dont believe llamas or lemmas.

Lemmas are meant to be questioned. Llamas can be questioned, but they tend to spit in reply.

Would you trust somebody who is spitting at you?
You ask them some simple questions like e.g. the rotational speed of the moon in relation to Jupiter or the question to 42 or stuff like that and they spit in response.
Perhaps I should learn the spitting language?

Depends. Does it have anything to do with maths?
How do we feel about lemurs? Or has that been covered already?

I think that was the BASE jumping rats reference, although we haven't tried tossing psockpuppet off a cliff, yet. Not that I haven't thought of it...

Hmm ... I should get some lemurs to do base jumping and see wether they use a parachute. This needs to be seriously researched!

Rule #1 in safe logic: Never ask a llama to "just spit it out" when questioning them.
