Here is what I had
Refreshment COLA
Science room LAB

Fail!

I'd never come across the dismal science reference until a couple of years ago 29th March this year[^] ... when it was used in a CCC by Peter_in_2780
Having seen that it was clearly econom... something or other it was just trying to stretch it out to 12 letters. It took me a while after econometrics to suss the refreshment = T bit, nice!

Ok. Now the whole thing begins to make sense. May the duct tape be with you!
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Its tape surrounds us and binds us. Adhesive beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Duct Tape around you; here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere, yes. Even between the land and the ship.

If it moves and it ain't supposed to: Duct Tape.
If it doesn't move and it's supposed to: WD40
The less you need, the more you have.

So never use force on ducts?
That might make them hard to install!
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

I really don't want to hijack the lounge, but I cannot find the elephanting path to starting a poll in contrast to starting a raging argument in here.
Help me

You can't... you can only suggest a topic.
Go to the survey, upper right corner, next to "Watch" there is "suggest a survey"

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Are you sure that's thought to be "public"?
I have been clicking here and there for a while and I can't find the way to come there without direct link

Well, Chris posted about it in the Lounge quite a few years back, so it can't be that secret.
And it can only be used by Codeproject users if I recall correctly.

@Chris-Maunder I think you should think about this topic a bit.

Not sure what time period "back then" entails but I doubt that statement is true. Which doesn't mean that similar problem doesn't exist now but rather that any difference is trivial.

Well we'll probably find out soon enough.
Survey Results - Should the edit survey page be available to regular users
You have to change the polls page filter to "all types" to find it, so the abuse potential is somewhat limited anyway.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Yeah, but my (stolen) halo sits the perfect jaunty angle as it rests on my horns.
