I was referring to the whale tweet, of course. I haven't read AAT,
yet.

Aw, I missed the whale tweet. I had the probes on my twitterfeed but
wasn't having their tweets sent to my phone. That is pretty zarking
cool though.

Well, you are certainly hip to what the kids are saying nowadays!
Welcome to afda. Tea?

I was afraid of that. I don't mean you, personally, of course. I was
afraid that most people would miss the HHGG reference. Not 'afraid',
really, too. I am not waking up in the middle of a night in a cold
sweat mumbling "whale... notice the whale".
NASA crashing stuff into a rock, voluntary or involuntary, is not
really news by itself.

I'm not sure if that is a good thing.
>Welcome to afda. Tea?
Oh, I'm not that new here. I just have been sitting silently in the corner
for a while with my towel over my head.
But yes, thanks, I'll have a cup.

Take heart in the fact that Zaphod was so hip he had trouble seeing
over his pelvis.

Finally. Yes, please - but the tea is cold by now, can I have a fresh cup?
Maybe somthing that's almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea. Or a
beer. And peanuts.

I think we can probably manage some peanuts, and something almost, but
not quite, entirely unlike tea. Not certain we've any beer left,
however.

No beer? Is it the end of the world already?

No. If it were the end of the world, we'd have six pints of beer to
get through by lunchtime.

Not here either. Though ostly boring standard pilsner (that's lager to
you british people :-)
Also, I'm trying to catch up after being lost for some time. Not really
lost, just a bit away from afda.
I was astonished to see the the fit progressing! I haven't even dared
reading it yet...
Anyway, I brought some tea...
