I spent the next 30 minutes calculating how many times you would have to do that for it to add up to 2000 miles and worked out he would need to be performing this manoeuvre about once every 2 seconds.
I then realized how sad I was being, screwed up my workings and never posted it.
I have written out big posts before to try and win an argument or make a point, sometimes hundreds of words long, then normally towards the end after I have vented most of what I wanted to say, I look at it think what the **** am I doing and delete it. It is a habit I am pretty happy with.
