@roryprior Fair point…but in that case camcorder manufacturers should produce 720p camcorders! Interlacing is so 90s.

Why does stupid 1080i exist? Can you even get an HD CRT TV?!

Save time and money by reading a summary of Blair’s book. Possibly cherry-picked, but seems comprehensive…especially on what he neglects to mention!

I didn’t realise quite how comically-if-it-weren’t-so-serious baseless the slurs of the IPCC chairman were.

@suziesheehy Maybe that’s it. And if so, we beat it! I only noticed the report’s appendectomy when trying to work out what I’d said wrong…

Minor amendment! With apologies to The Big Bang Fair for confusion! :)

@bigbangfair Er, but it says in the paragraph I quote that Braniac Live only got 14.70? Sorry if I’ve misunderstood? :)

Our physics show Accelerate! was the highest-rated at The Big Bang Fair! Woo!
Quoting from the final evaluation:
Overall, the highest total scores were for Accelerate!, and BP which both achieved a maximum mark of 15. These were followed Brainiac Live! (14.70), Build your own jet engine (13.57), and Hydraulics for frolics (13.34). For interest, the top 5 were Accelerate!, BP, Brainiac Live!, Power to the people (each scoring 5) and Journey of a fuel rod(4.83). All scores, including busyness and engagement are given in appendix 15.

Oxford Mail in slightly uncomfortable but funny photo caption screw-up.

The moral of this evening? If you’re making a deal not to catch hepatitis, don’t sign it in blood.

@roryprior Ta! I’m glad I rushed on ahead of everyone then, because another thirty seconds and I’d’ve missed it!
