Extract;-
Jostling along is a most motley crowd.
Here, for example, comes the handsomely-decorated
chair of a mandarin who is engaged on state business.
Before him run two attendants armed with whips to
clear the way, and behind them are boys carrying
large painted boards on which is written,
"Stand aside!" or "Respectful silence, please!"
Big Bertha Thing Bertha
First Big Bertha posting was to first aid tent in OUSA
Classical Particle Conf., to provide aid and comfort to
victims, who had been set upon by unnamed e-mail thugs.
There was no way to make direct contact, with shell shocked
victim, so we tried Big Bertha. The trick worked and
first victim is well again, after saying, "At last, a normal man!"
Since then Big Bertha has developed a life of her own and actually
caught some thugs in the act.
First posting consisted of two anecdotes effort and repairs,
from Big Bertha Thing gamma and particle respectively.
Effort was also the last assault rifle shot fired.
Rollover and shotgun below, were the first Big Bertha sent
in anger, with reply to all sender and copy to conf.
Progress and anecdote forward was first cannon shot fired.
Spider and fact(newsletter and readership for astronomy)
was first landmine explosion,
which was not even deployed on OUSA Astronomy.
Big Bertha Thing apology(Rollover)
Please accept my apologies for troubling you. It will not
of course be repeated. However 3 net surfers have responded
to my call to help out on the Conf., by volunteering.
In emergency situations, needs must.
You and your fellow net surfers number 3, I see.
Net surfers have broad shoulders, thick skins and I trust,
compassion.
Big Bertha Thing shotgun
By way of light relief, a similar general apology, to the one above, would bring solace and comfort, to the victims of such well intentioned postings. Please put it in a Big Bertha and address to conf. That of course, would be the end of spam.
