Read the report. I'm not spoon feeding you the numbers which are in it.

I never claimed to have designed one.

Not something I ever claimed. Perhaps you are becoming like some others, who when they appear to have no better arguments invent something their opponent did not type and then attack that invention. This distraction tactic may fool some, it is a popular tactic in some circles, but those able to think for themselves are not fooled.

What I did calculate was that the supplied equipment will maintain the temperatures on a stalled train of Mark IV coaches so that people can still breathe. The equipment obviously has to be deployed early enough and conditions inside the coaches will be abnormal. At no time did I claim that the equipment would maintain normal temperatures within the train, despite the repeated attempts of some to assert otherwise.

We bought a small chapel which has been renovated some time ago. The roof has very little insulation, but has a tiny loftspace with big overhang, ie, nowhere to get much loft insulation. Sempatap has been recommended by EST, but there's no grant for that.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember The Natural Philosopher saying something like:

I'm watching you, laddie.

On a related note. Thank f*ck for the Global Recession. It seems to have neatly nipped in the bud the Ultrafools' ambitions to be an independent country, at least for the meantime.
