Giant Plug Found at Bottom of Pacific Ocean
The Spoof
March 26,2010 EXCERPT: Marine biologists have found a giant plug at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, in the Marianas Trench. The researchers, in their deep submersible, were not particularly surprised when they spotted an enormous chain snaking across the muddy bottom. 6,000 metres down.

RE: Giant Plug Found at Bottom of Pacific Ocean
![]() Oh, come on! I had to look up in the dictionary for a cryptic meaning of plug. This is from The Spoof!! Quote:He pointed to the recent fiasco of the BHITB (Big Hole In The Bottom) project off the coast of Florida. "They dug out 60 million tons of rock, only to realise they had nowhere to put it, and their solution of another BHITB only made the situation worse" Maybe it´s a bit too late here and I should go to bed

RE: Giant Plug Found at Bottom of Pacific Ocean
This business of dumping stuff into the oceans is not funny. It causes the sea level to rise and then they tax us plebs.
CO2 comes from coal, coal comes from fossilised trees, fossilised trees come from living trees, living trees growth comes from CO2 therefore coal is carbon neutral. ...from here |

The BBC will be making a documentary about this soon, mark my words...
The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary. H. L. Mencken. The hobgoblins have to be imaginary so that "they" can offer their solutions, not THE solutions. |
