I know how MB must be feeling, shades of me own "Recursive, geared-down, chopsticks" notion being pirated out somewhere in Shenzen province.. |
|
|
What do I see on Tech Times.." Using laser tweezers, a team of Harvard University scientist nudges one sodium and one caesium together to form a molecule." |
|
|
Lazer tweezers? Oh yeah, and that sonic screwdriver you got for Xmas. |

Rentisham's legal department will be in touch shortly, [poc].
His name is Angus. |
|
|
He never mentioned it when I saw him this morning. Though in his defense, he was incredibly drunk, even though it was before breakfast. I told him last night that he should probably not start a 10 hour pub crawl at midnight. He said he had enjoyed the one he was just finishing so much, that he thought a second would be a nice finish to a nice day. |
|
|
Ah good. That'll be the "lulling into a false sense of
security" part done, then. |
|
|
Is this the same "flamethrower" Angus whos breath caught fire
at the Samhain Bonfire ? |
|
|
We thought he had spontaneously combusted months ago
|
|
|
He had. But he's not one to let things like that interfere
with the job. |
|
|
"Rentisham's - does what it says on the completely blank tin" |
|
|
Ahem. May I refer you to the illustration in <link>? Our
packaging has always been soothingly uncluttered, but
never "blank". Is it possible that you have been sold an
inferior product by an unscrupulous vendor? |
|
|
//an inferior product by an unscrupulous vendor// I'm not convinced such a thing exists. |
|
|
You've obviously never driven a Citroen 2CV then. |
|
|
//May I refer you to the illustration in <link>?// - ah yes, I must have been thinking of the short-lived "Rentisham's Lite" product. |
|
|
Possibly. That one was an attempt by our marketing
department to capture the American market. It never took
off, mainly because Rentisham's is not allowed to be sold
outside the UK. |

I was under the impression that the head gamekeeper's assistant,Yoshihara-san, the one who always wearing black pyjamas, and the off-putting habit of bisecting flying insects with a blade - was the one who dealt with those trifling matters of intellectual property rights? |
|
|
Oddly enough on the Beeb website, "The European stone stacking championship is coming to Dunbar." Can it be a bit of a slow news day? |
|
|
Yoshi does handle most IP disputes, but at the moment he's
still on his way back from Dunbar. |
