      But perhaps he’s right. Maybe they were travelling beaker salespeople who organised parties in people’s villages to try and sell their beakers and of course attract new beaker salespeople into a massive pyramid scheme set up by their chums in Egypt.

        That’s one small slurp for a man, one giant leap forwards for mankind.

            I prefer the word Brontosaurus, but to remain correct whilst avoiding having to use the new classification, I say 'the animal that used to be called a Brontosaurus'. A win, win situation.

              I thought that older palaeontologists rebelled, and got Brontosaurus kept?

                "You can really do the Brontosaurus" - The Move.

                I think all the Beaker people migrated to Glasgow.

                    Can't we just ask Beaker? If anyone knows it must be him.

                    Mind you, he hasn't posted for a while, and I vaguely recall him being banned.
