    The one and only Google result for "symposionic conversation"[^] I found that actually amusing, that the only hit is the very event that I'm coordinating. Marc

    Congratulations! That (was) a Googlewhack[^] It's not going to be for long - because Google will catch up with this conversation - but it's fun when you first get one! There is a book on 'em as well: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dave-Gormans-Googlewhack-Adventure-Gorman/dp/0091897424[^] and a DVD: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dave-Gormans-Googlewhack-Adventure-DVD/dp/B0002CTZS4[^] (If you haven't read / seen it, I recommend it!)

    You looking for sympathy? You'll find it in the dictionary, between sympathomimetic and sympatric (Page 1788, if it helps)

          You may already have have won one! The Bulgarian government is running a competition all year. All you need to do is get a large denomination note out and check if it's a winning one: if so you can exchange it for a pizza at any branch of Dominos. Winning notes have a unique number printed on them...

              Just been listening to an interview with Dave Gorman on the wireless. Second series of Modern Life Is Goodish starts tomorrow on Dave if anyone is interested. I enjoyed the first.

                        One of the reason why I hate men is : they can eat like pigs and still lose weight. If I eat something even a cookie and its immediately on my bottom. So that competition is off limits. One quick note : The Bulgarian government is indeed running competition all year, but gathering one. The winning prices are higher taxes, higher bills, higher prices of items or if you are lucky all of the above ;)

                            The UK government has been running that one for the last five years... :sigh: Sadly, I can't eat all I wish and lose weight, not any more. When I rode motorcycles every day, drank like a fish and smoked like a chimney, yes. But...I hardly ride at all, gave up drinking 7 or so years ago, gave up smoking ten years ago, and gained 20kg... :-O

                                    Curves on a woman are like pockets on jeans. It gives you somewhere to put your hands.

                                      The UK government has been running that one for the last five years... :sigh: Sadly, I can't eat all I wish and lose weight, not any more. When I rode motorcycles every day, drank like a fish and smoked like a chimney, yes. But...I hardly ride at all, gave up drinking 7 or so years ago, gave up smoking ten years ago, and gained 20kg... :-O

                                      You looking for sympathy? You'll find it in the dictionary, between sympathomimetic and sympatric (Page 1788, if it helps)

                                      When I gave up t'tabs I gained around 10kg, but I have now lost it all over the last two years.

                                          The one and only Google result for "symposionic conversation"[^] I found that actually amusing, that the only hit is the very event that I'm coordinating. Marc
