Off-topic - stories that may interest you:

What with Creationism breaking out all over, it's almost a relief to see a different branch of science under attack from superstitious whackdoodles.

Spider of Destiny -- Frank Zappa

Listen carefully, spider of destiny
You must heed the call of cosmo-biology
Listen to me

If you eat the earthlings now
things will all be fine and then
we'll repair our love somehow
and resume the busy schedule of our ruthless conquest once again

Where do I place the order?

I have thousands. I'm selling them at £79 each. I only have the Woodlouse model though.

I can't guarentee that they won't be damaged in transit though.
