The length of a piece of string will be settled after the store is running smoothly.

And don’t forget after they get avatars working again in the forum. I’m just a bit more concerned with that then the nature of string

Ah but debating the nature of string does serve to keep people amused while we wait for them to start working on the forums.

Well now if you really want amusing then we need to discuss the nature of that laser thingie that makes the red dot.

good point. but I don’t have a laser pointer, do have a lot of string, and my cats are quite happy chasing string, while we debate it’s propertites

or cat will come up and claw your arm up until you grab the laser pointer. I guess she’s letting us know its time to play.

It does indeed Pam, I’m absolutely riveted to this whole “nature of string” debate!

- Can women really drive?

- Is it wise to pick your nose using chopsticks?

These are questions that have puzzled mankind for, well, at lest a few weeks now, and some things may never be answered.  But thanks to sheer brain capacity, it is the British that have found the answer to the question ...

Alan Davis hosts Horizon?  Is this a spoof?  I remember Horizon from the 70’s - when I had a TV - and it used to cover serious scientific topics.  This is madness, it’s no wonder today’s generation of scrotes and wasters, don’t learn anything while they are pretending to be sick.

Are you suggesting the nature of string is not a serious scientific subject?

Scientists are serious about all their work, but not all the work is as serious as the scientists who work on it.

In cosmology, the existence of Strings is now doubted.

After disparaging it, turns out the Horizon was moderately entertaining and did in fact come up with a definitive answer at the end.
 
Edit:  If the numbers are not clear, it reads 319.442 mm - so that’s settled.
