My bad. I think M_i_J once said that you were a bit of a physics expert or something so I got totally the wrong impression.AndrewGPaul wrote:No, I'm not; process and customer technical support in a steel rolling mill.

Coincidentally, I used to work in a steel rolling mill myself. (in the HR department). I spent one year at the British Steel/Corus Skinninggrove works down near to my hometown of Middlesbrough. They rolled 'special sections' which means 'all the crap the regular mills couldnt be bothered with' such as caterpillar treads for diggers and so forth.

Re: What did you do today.
bit of a leap from that to nuclear power station staff. Mightve gotten wires crossed with me talking about another mate of mine, Gordon, who does work in a power station. (Now in Spain, btw, for those who care.) Anyway, it matters notM_i_J once said that you were a bit of a physics expert or something

Re: What did you do today.
I've got about eight squads of Terminators, not including the RT-era ones. It comes of buying two copies of Space Hulk, Assault on Black Reach and then buying enough Wolf Guard Terminators to duplicate the Blood Angels. Admittedly only one squad is actually painted, but that's not quite the point.
