Those following my recent spat with AOG over his persistant tendency to post loads of questions then not even have the courtesy to take part in the ensuing debate, may be amused to read to the very bottom of this thread.

At the bottom you will note one of AOG's 'rare' responses to one of his own questions, including anal statistics.
Not to be outdone and with time on my hands (rain forecast, so I can't go out for that walk that you recommended for me, Gromit), here are the unexpurgated stats on AOG's 17 questions over the last 12 days.
Risk - 6 responses, 0 replies from AOG
EU - 17, 0 Iraq/Afghanistan - 1, 0
Baron Martin - 3, 0 Animals - 19, 1
Burka - 77, 2 Civil war - 4, 0 Pirate Party - 3, 1
X factor - 11, 0 How dare he (Ed Balls) - 12, 2
Milliband - 8, 2 Mass murderer - 30, 3 (something to interest him, clearly)
Should they carry them - 17, 0 Daily Male - 21, 1
British inefficiency - 2, 1 Bureaucracy - 13, 3
A levels - 44, 0

So there we have it, ladies and gentlemen, only half the questions get double-figure quantities of answers, and less than one response per question from the originator.
I rest my case - bureaucracy gone mad or what?

Goodnight to all my regular customers, and see you back in 'Home & Garden' tomorrow.

Mmmmmmm!!!!! Home & Garden absolutely riveting.

Was it worth going back to answer just three questions out of the last twenty?

One on Chainsaws, one on the condensation of pipes, and one on the council tax of caravans.

Incidentally the one on Council Tax was one of only three questions, to received the maximum number of answers four, yes that's all four.

But still buildersmate, better to stay where you feel the least challenged.
the thing is, on Home and Garden, people actually ask questions and receive answers (including good ones from buildersmate). This desn't always seem to be the case in the News section.

The thing was intended to be tongue in cheek. If that isn't the way you see it, that's unfortunate. I bear you no other malice.
At it has got you out of your regular slot in the News section for a day.
No pistols at dawn then

How very dissapointing
A few days ago aog wrote

�And try as you may, no matter how much I may embarrass your individual feelings, no matter how much it makes your armpits sweat, thus causing your underarm, rolled up, Guardian to get wet, I will continue to upset you.�

To-day he wrote �I am merely trying to use the limited tools at my disposal to challenge the way the site develops.

Could you be referring to the limited number of Brain Cells that you possess?�

With such well-constructed, rapier-like responses such as that, is it any wonder wir oxters are sweaty?
