Jack, I think Lawrence is just being an anarchist. His, ahem,
personal preferences are really no concern of ours.


Reminds me of an anecdotal Air Traffic Control conversation.

ATC: "Air France 1234. What are your flight conditions?"
Air France: "In and out of ze bottoms." (meaning at cloud base)
Qantas (in richest Australian accent): "Vive le sport!"

However, I actually heard the following at Charles de Gaulle airport, Paris
"You 'ave a Yumbo up your backside. When 'e 'as pulled out, you are
cleared to taxi"
