Found the Book. After I get a couple hours sleep, I'll scan the images. Found 2 that might be what everyone is looking for. One is basically a flattened double cone,

I'd really like to see this one.

...what?

Nothing.

In the movie version of "The Hunt For Red October", Captain Ramius and his Executive Officer, Borodin are discussing their hopes for what they will find in America when they escape the Communist Dictatorship of the Soviet Union. It's a touching scene where Borodin is timid, shy, afraid and yet hope...

While waiting at the Airport yesterday for a friend flying up from Sydney, I amused myself by imagining a tilt rotor (with me at the controls, of course!) landing vertically on the runway and taxiing up to the gates. I thought "That would be so cool!" battyden whuppawhuppawhuppawhuppawhuppawhuppawhu...

Poor Galore looks so stressed and confused in the last panel! A male carrying the female's things? That just goes against... EVERYTHING! :o I wonder though, in the world of 2066, would the British culture be so predominant as it is in ours. We have British culture with local variations (Australian, ...

I never did see Danger Mouse growing up, looks like I've missed out on some good pop culture

Mate did you miss out! I saw DM and instantly fell in love with the show. Puns and rediculousness. Super Heros and Supervillans.

Get is if you can.

It would annoy my neighbours.

NASA and Stanford University have developed and tested a new parrafin-based rocket fuel. The by-broducts of combustion are water and CO2.

going to grow up to be a female kangaroo...?

uh... no.

She's less than a year old so I think she's one of the Last Spring batch. That means she's only just get her flying license.

Tangent's Rant reminded me of Petey's in Under The Lemon Tree/Schlock Mercenary episode http://utlt.keenspace.com/d/20021118.html

Hmm... I can't see if Scott added any new stations to Mr Beck's map of the Underground.

Batty, By chance, are you a Caver? I used to be one for a number of years, but I'm not the slot-stuffer I used to be... No, never really got into it except on guided tours. I know a lot about bats due to my work as a rescuer/rehabber of injured bats. Most of them around here are tree-hollow dweller...

Always go to the experts if you want something done properly

It's good to hear your Dad is doing well.

I'm looking around for Harry Potter, myself. :o But that was a Mainline train, not an Underground. :) I'm pretty certain it wasn't British Rail, though. :D Besides, batty den, the station's at Heathrow. No one's going to be looking for Blackfriars. At least I hope not! :D :) I just noticed in the H...

Mm? Do they have the same signs in Australia? :o No, I was being silly. But I've been to the UK a few times, back when I had a job that paid money. Oh, and just in case you're wondering: http://straylight.dhs.org/rocket/images/spaar/sp25.jpg I noticed the "piggy-back" configuration in the strip. Wh...

I think the underground sign would have the station name instead of "Underground" there.

I mean, everyone knows what a tube station sign looks like.

That made the /. news some 3 months ago +-, and it hit the main news wires here this past week as well. Cool stuff, I don't see it happening here any time soon due to land use issues.

Looks like Enviromission http://www.enviromission.com.au/index1.htm (flash req.) will be building a 1000m high tower in the outback of this state.

Besides, we're even! It's a lot easier for you to render the cablework on the Kenedy tower than it is for me to draw 'em!
