Mate HAD to sell it at a way deflated price as I was in a dire financial situation, what do you know 2 months later everything has changed back the other way. :D

Thats investing for you. :roll: However new 2006 12R's are going out so cheap now it is hardly worth buying a 2nd hand one. 8)

Ya, turbo 12 has been well thought about but mefinks wetshot Nos is the wtg to kill off any ZX14 or Busa challenge. :wink:

Dr Stereo,
I've just finished reading all 16 pages of this post (slow day at the orifice.) but unfortunately could not find the answers i'm so desperately seeking.
I do have a number of them so i will put them in a list format for you to answer and to easily allow us to keep track of them.

1. If a train is traveling from Sydney to melbourne at 120mph and at the same time one leave Melbourne for Sydney at 220kmph, after how much time will they pass each other?
2. why is the sky blue?
3. why is my bottom itchy?
4. why did they build the great wall of china?
5. what is the fifty thousands decimal place of PI? and will this help me to work out the circumference of the rear tyre of my bike?
6. will i ever amount to anything?

I eagerly await your wisdom to be enshrined upon us all.

Regards
wisc

Answers (in order)
1. Never. A train going at 220kmph will crash within a few kilometers.... The resulting wreckage will span both tracks and the other train will not be able to pass.
2. The sky is blue because of Rayleigh scattering. To simplify, as sunlight comes through the atmosphere the lightwaves are shattered by the molecules in the air.... leaving mostly blue lightwaves.... Thats why as the sun is going down and you are on a different angle to the sun we get hues of orange and red... (and to preempt your question: YES that is the same Dr Raleigh who invented the modern bicycle....Hey, everyone needs a hobby).
3. You have worms.
4. Some people say its because of the rabbits.... But its not.... You dont need a wall that large to keep out rabbits, unless they were mutant robotic rabbits with eye lasers.... But they didnt exist until recently... No... The chinese built that wall to keep out the mongoloids...
5a. 7
5b. <b>Ofcourse</b> you need that decimal to accurately work out the circumference of your tire... If you want to be accurate that is..... Ofcourse most people only go to the first 5 decimal places... But thats not even close to accurate.
6. Ofcourse you will. One day you will make a great doorstop...

Dear Doc Stereo,

some things in life are so very complex and usually we/I just accept it to be so and move on...

However after dropping my toast on the floor this morning it seems it always lands buttered side down thus picking up all matter of filth in the butter, not a good thing so I have to do a new piece as that is easier than cleaning the floor and interupting my time schedule for the day, now what would happen if both sides of the toast were buttered would that make it land on its side on the crust??

How can one stop said toast from falling in the first place or should I get a cat to study this phenomenon??

Also is this a simular phenomenon as why birds, ninja warriors and cats always land on their feet??

Should I give up on toast and try cereal instead??

Adjust my busy timetable to accomodate falling pieces of toast??

Thankyou and I am waiting with interest for you answer Doctor.. 8)

Or alternatively if you staple a piece of toast, buttered side up, to a cats back, which way will it land... ?

Hope this isn't a bit too deep for ya Dr Stereo but are humans the only mammals that wipe their arse and if so why?

Aliens on distant planets already discovered this a long time ago...

Staple a piece of toast, butter side up to a cat and you have a crude anti-gravity device... because both refuse to land wrong way up.... Add more cats and more toast to make a stronger machine...

You have to freeze the cats ofcourse to stop them trying to lick the butter off the toast....

But to answer your question..... Stop dropping your toast is probably the place to start...
