oh i totally know what you mean i think about stuff like that allllllll the time.

[Console]

Unless you specialise in either nuclear physics or a very narrow area of cancer research then I'd find it odd that you think about alpha particles/radiation all the time.

[natfatbat]

that's the point. it allows for the spark to make the metal combust in a controlled way, rather than all over the place.

Ah thats what I'm doing wrong!

[Vivienne]

Viv, is that where you get all your thread ideas from? Just copy them from UM? It would explain some things, definitely!

No, it isn't! I do sometimes "steal" from UM, but topics come from: 1. my own thoughts! 2. things on TV 3. Edith Bowman's show 4. Chris' show (obviously) 5. Newspapers 6. Conversations on buses, etc., etc.

[MK Chris]

As a solution to this problem, I would suggest:

1. Not thinking
2. Don't watch telly
3. Don't listen to Edith Bowman
4. Don't think about starting threads while listening to Moyles
5. Don't read newspapers
6. Don't talk to strangers on buses

[Vivienne]

Topher!!!! Watch out! I have (potentially) 2 more topics for ramble this morning! Observe and learn!

[foot-loose]

Tophers points 3, 5 and 6 are very important for day to day life.

[Vivienne]

You should be grateful, because it brings about a "unique" blend of topics.

[foot-loose]

I can think of another word that I would use.

[Bonanzoid]

The best use of helium is perfectly portrayed by Peter Kay.

[Vivienne]

Right, I'm going to create 2 more topics. time to research before posting. Back shortly.

[foot-loose]

The best use of helium is perfectly portrayed by Peter Kay.

That was blatantly a special effect put on the mic.

[Bonanzoid]

Maybe so, still funny.

[Yudster]

Kendra you really are the fount of all knowledge!

Ahem. Thats because she is a librarian, and they are concerned with information, rather than just books!

*hides*

[foot-loose]

Maybe so, still funny.

...but not a use of helium?

[MK Chris]

Haha. Well played Yudwuk.

[kendra k]

yudster, you made me chuckle to my brekkie.

i know about helium and welding because mr kendra k took a welding class and has since cursed every helium balloon he sees.

[S4B]

Yudster I will hunt you down! Which will be fairly easy as I have your address!!!

[Yudster]

*moves house*

[S4B]

Ha not soon enough!

[kendra k]

s4b, you need to chillax. you seem really worked up about this book mongering stuff.
