Re . Is it any suprise that Facebook is more popular amoung those attending college, when its whole premise was for college students to communicate between each other, first Harvard but then any others too. Talk about a pointless study with meaningless findings!

Is anyone else saddened by the article about ? It suggests that the milk can be "transferred into reusable jugs". Imagine if, one day, the milk was put straight into the reusable jugs, and the jugs were distributed via a zero-emissions vehicle right to your front door? Wishful thinking I guess.

In the article about : "The machine detected it, then matched the cheque against a Pin number." No, no, no! PIN stands for Personal Identification Number so you don't need to add the word number again. At least the article didn't talk about ATM machines.

Did anybody notice in the , Hayley, Marie-Claire and Elspeth - all 17 - were happily clutching pints of Brothers Cider? Busted!

Re Quote for the day: "The quantity of wild horses has not yet been invented to drag us back to play in public again" - Mark Ellen, bassist in Tony Blair's old band Ugly Rumours. Shakespeare was here first, "The quantity of mareses is not strained"

In today's Quote of the Day, I would venture that Mark Ellen is wrong. Any quantity (or number) will run to infinity...and even if that is not enough horses, infinity + one (or any number for that matter, even infinity) is infinity. Thus it would take an infinite number of wild horses. Thankfully for us.

Re . I am reminded of a story from an equally muddy year (1997, I think) when the Dance Tent was flooded. Someone hit upon the idea that one of these lorries could be used to suck all of the rainwater up. However, what they hadn't bargained on was that the lorry had been set to blow! I believe Fatboy Slim performing that evening was heard to comment: "Is it me, or does it smell in here?"
Mark Faulkner, London

Given the merger between an , will the merged company be known as "Aye? Aye?".
