>Hey-hey, please..it started with a fart and ended with the new president. I
must say, your association views are widening violently. Personally, I have
to refer to the ancient sumerian expression 'a people get the leader that
mirrors their own status'. I leave this truly sensitive president issue and
go back to Brian (friend with John Cleese?)and his draining theory. Now,
Brian there is something wrong! Archimedes's overpressure valve opens, you
say, and gallons of CH4 is streaming out, and....he is smoking a Havanna! Oh
my...what will happen? I can see something like a submarine's underwater
missile firing start....and now you will understand why I said Sicily...he
frankly landed there. As a curiosum it's worth mentioning that on maximum of
his ballistic flight Archimedes met Ikaros, who trained a bit from his
homeland before the historic flight in his homeland.

>Actually, Ingemar, Archimedes (Greek, not Sicilian, so I believe) did not
get the whole story. You see, when he got in his bath and ruined the carpet,
he'd been eating Heinz beans and had a goodly dose of CH4 in his fat gut.
This was compressed by the hydrostatic pressure, so he did not spill as much
water as his corpulence dictated. Now, the warmth of the hot water increased
the peristaltic movement of his colon and, suddenly, all the CH4 was
released, producing an enormous series of large bubbles, ostensibly to
contribute to global
>warming. As he was relaxing, smoking a fat cigar, the CH4 suddenly became
CO2 + 2H2O, robbing a couple of molecules of oxygen from the air, producing
local, rather than global, warming that singed his beard and warmed the
water in his bath further, causing the said gentleman to expand, as well as
the water itself. What happened to the water level?

>> OK, Ron, straight and a little too straight answer. Now, you did not
explain this. When sicilian A. got into the basin the water rised and he
opened the window and cried : evreka. Which meant 'the water is overflowing
my basin and the floor carpet is destroyed'. Now my question: OK, light is
switched on and runs with e through blackness, pushing darkness aside. Then,
bright Ron, what way does the darkness take after being pushed away? If I
bang my right hand violently into the cake, the whole tarte will..well..get
somewhere else.
