âoeJoe Pokaski and Martin Campbell have worked tirelessly with the Georgeville TV team to create an amazeballs reboot of this classic space opera"

AMAZEBALLS. In a press release. I was on the fence about it before I read that. Now I want this dead.

I live around the corner from GCHQ in Cheltenham. It has signs on it saying something like "This is a secret building under the official secrets act, and photography of it is forbidden."

And there's one of those signs every couple of meters. I can't remember the actual wording, because well - I can't photograph it.

Mind you, both bing and google earth have wonderful close ups of this totally secret building.

Yes, same Psion.

Grr! You changed the clock by observing it!

Damm kids!

incompletely illegal?

I can confirm that pseudoephedrine is legal here in the UK. I have some on my desk right now. You do have to ask for the correct sudafed as the good stuff is always behind the counter, but that's just modern life. ;)

sarcasm detection?

Oh, THAT'S useful...

Interesting stuff. Thanks for the clarification.

Now I've got a new phrase to google : "Morale Patches" brilliant!

I think my favourite thing about 2SOPS is their motto : "War to your door, +/- 16 Meters"

as seen on the patch here : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:2_SOPS_space_systems_operator_040205-F-0000C-001.jpg

That's odd. I saw Avatar in Real3D and got an eyestrain headache that lasted for 48 hours.

I saw Tron Legacy in IMAX3D as was A1, no after effects or weird eye spoogleyness at all.

I used an app called "downloadr" a while back. Seemed to work pretty well. Don't have a link to it here, but a quick google should find it.

Hmm... *buzzes* "Things made by Dow chemical"

Holy shit. I just wiki'd EPFCG :

An explosively pumped flux compression generator (EPFCG) is a device used to generate a high-power electromagnetic pulse by compressing magnetic flux using high explosive.

An EPFCG can be used only once as a pulsed power supply since the device is physically destroyed during operation. An EPFCG package that could be easily carried by a person can produce pulses in the millions of amperes and tens of terawatts, exceeding the power of a lightning strike by orders of magnitude. They require a starting current pulse to operate, usually supplied by capacitors.

Like I say, HOLY SHIT.

"Honey, are you playing Second life again?"

      "No sweetheart"

"So why does it smell like semen and cat hair in here?"

Mister Potato head, MISTER POTATO HEAD, Back doors are not secret!
