We Brits think of the Irish the way Americans think of Polacks, as in
"How many Irishmen does it take to change a light bulb?"
or more recently "How many MP's expense claims does changing a light
bulb
generate?"
One for the Irishman standing on the step ladder holding the bulb,
six for the Polacks turning the step ladder, one for the step ladder
and of course one for the bulb. That's err... twelve.
Check: 1+6+1+1 = 12... err... thousand.
I apologise unreservedly for my unforgivable accounting, but it is
within the rules that I and my conspiratorial accomplic.... err...
colleagues... wrote and that makes it ok.
"Irish physicist John Tyndall proved that some gases have a remarkable
capacity to hang onto heat, so demonstrating the physical basis of the
greenhouse effect. "
What Irish physicist John Tyndall failed to discover was the glass
that is the physical basis of greenhouses and light bulbs.
Glass has a remarkable capacity to hang onto heat, as anyone
changing a light bulb in a greenhouse would know.

Do not reply to this generic message, it was automatically generated;
you have been kill-filed, either for being boringly stupid, repetitive,
unfunny, ineducable, repeatedly posting politics, religion or off-topic
subjects to a sci. newsgroup, attempting cheapskate free advertising
for profit, because you are a troll, simply insane or any combination
or permutation of the aforementioned reasons; any reply will go unread.
Boringly stupid is the most common cause of kill-filing, but because
this message is generic the other reasons have been included. You are
left to decide which is most applicable to you.
There is no appeal, I have despotic power over whom I will electronically
admit into my home and you do not qualify as a reasonable person I would
wish to converse with or even poke fun at. Some weirdoes are not kill-
filed, they amuse me and I retain them for their entertainment value
as I would any chicken with two heads, either one of which enables the
dumb bird to scratch dirt, step back, look down, step forward to the
same spot and repeat the process eternally.
This should not trouble you, many of those plonked find it a blessing
that they are not required to think and can persist in their bigotry
or crackpot theories without challenge.
You have the right to free speech, I have the right not to listen. The
kill-file will be cleared annually with spring cleaning or whenever I
purchase a new computer or hard drive.
I hope you find this explanation is satisfactory but even if you don't,
damnly my frank, I don't give a dear. Have a nice day.
