Due on line 2013/14. Nobody else would touch that oil, contaminated with vanadium.

Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing,—
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.

Ha. Don't kid yourself. When it comes to trans-Atlantic insult wars you lot don't stand a chance. Of course you won't understand most of them, what with not getting irony.

A few years ago an acquaintance moved to the USA to get involved in the fantastically profitable Florida real estate boom. Overnight the average national IQ of both here and the USA was raised.

I don't understand them. For RGR, debate is just a game: he's neither open to influence by other people's opinions, nor, I suspect, very deeply committed what he claims are his own. He just enjoys seeing how long he can keep a futile volley going.

I never read RGR's posts, and I was barely aware of his continued presence on PS until he introduced his distracting and annoying new avatar.

The avatar is irritating (which is probably deliberate) but I find distinctive ones make posts easier to skip so there's more time to concentrate on important ones.
