And possibly other countries to follow.

Makes me wondering how much energy these lasers use. Somewhere between battleship-sinking and deathstar-like?

 

nice try.. April 1st

 

Spoiling it this fast...? Partypooper!

 

Whoops. Sorry

 

HAHA. I got a particularly rude and misguided PM today - I guess that must have been a seasonal joke too

 

The thing is, we don't know how much damage laser scanning is doing to track surfaces....it might be funny/ludicrous today, but in 16 years time? Who really knows?

Spoiler: Facts not opinion.

So don't laugh yet.

 

I think we're safe.....

 

Is it just me that finds all the April fool bandwagoning these days extremely lame? It's not that I don't like a bit of fun.. It's just crap! And it's supposed to last for the morning, not all bloody day. Moan mutter grumble
