    Why did Wednesdays Daily News have an article titled "Gartner identifies top ten disruptive technologies for 2008 to 2012" which is by-lined "MELBOURNE, Australia, May 28, 2008". I assume Gartner must pay CP to publish this stuff - not only is it rubbish but its ancient almost fossilised, rubbish - prefer my rubbish to be fresh rubbish. Wednesday wasn't a slow news day as I recall, I think there was a meltdown on Wall Street when Bloomberg dropped his ice cream, Angela Merkel was seen to swoon when she heard Gordon Brown's dulcet brogue echoing along the halls of Versailles and India scrambled a draw in the cricket, and the English beat someone at tiddlywinks or was it football.

      I will have you know that it is the Best Start to a world cup campaign EVER. Four Games, Four Wins, Top of the Group! Only Spain has done that this year, and they have scored a lot less goals!

        I'm old to enough to remember '66 and unfortunately every year since, so I'll not yet count the chickens home.
