Given that the primary sources support the overarm pose and that, unlike the creators of some of the primary source material, the author of the underarm usage theorem has never fought in a hoplite battle line, I suggest we stick with the overarm pose and burn the author of the alternate theory on a pyre of his own works.

How's that for a solution? :)

My thoughts exactly.

Alternatively, Just have a good selection of chaps with upright spears...

Has anyone else read the book? If, in future years, they judge us by our magazines, then they will assume all women are slim and gorgeous.

You didn't take Peter's advice to blunt the pins. Ouch!
Nah! Where's the fun in that?

The answer's simple: Techno carries on with what he's doing and everybody else goes out and gets himself a life.  :P :P :P
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

As a German I am inclined to abstain from casting a vote which results in the incineration of literary works. Having done business with Mr Techno I am convinced he either works to specifications or - lacking detailled orders - approaches each "job" with the necessary research. Having said that I do wonder if authors do burn well  :-\

Depends on the type of alcohol they drink. Phil being Welsh doesn't drink, the are all god fearing Methodists who ban ANYTHING you might enjoy.

Phil, being Welsh, doesn't drink; they are all god-fearing Methodists who ban ANYTHING you might enjoy. They'd probably even ban 10mm Aztecs, which is why we're still waiting for them.


I wonder. You've heard of the rugby team in the van on their way home who decided the captain was too drunk to sing with the rest, and so insisted he drive instead?

Theoretically I'm a methodist (my mum didn't like the CofE baptism service)

Doing stuff I don't enjoy would explain figure painting and games against Sunjester.  "Oh, you've rolled above average. Again"
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.
