    It's his lousy spelling has confused you. He meant Tellus of course. It's a sucky hover thing.

    Now that's more like it!
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Anyone want a day trip to the moon. At 12,000Kph it's a 1.33 day trip. So it's weekend trip if anyones interested.

    Mars is 9.03 months but that's one for when I retire. For you young'uns at 12,000kph it's 386000 years to our closest star (Proxima Centauri) so you had better take a female pillion if you want your decendents to arrive. If you want to get to the centre of our galaxy (Milky Way) it's 2.69 billion years so you had better shift up into top gear. At 12,000 kps it's 749000 years.
