Originally, this was an e-mail discussion between several of the people directly associated with 8 Russell Street. The matters discussed are of national interest. Past topics have included nuclear disarmament, hormone-mimicing environmental hazards, sustainable agriculture and the risk of high levels of scat production to our strained toxic transport systems. - - - - - - - - - -
1) God damn it! What's it take to get a constant flow of e-mails from you people?!
2) Who's fucking idea [to include a record on the Voyager spacecraft] was that any way!!!!
3) Are they dead? They should be!

[God damn it! What's it take to get a constant flow of e-mails from you people?!] I think we can attribute the lack of e-mail flow to lunar disturbances. Like the tides of the ocean, the ebb and flow of e-mail is subtly affected by the moon's gravitational pull. The moon was recently in its 'Beaver Moon' stage, as evidenced by the startling number of menstruel cycles womankind planetwide have experienced this week. This has induced a massive flux in e-mail communications. Thanks go to Josh for providing the explanation for this one.
[2) Who's fucking idea [to include a record on the Voyager spacecraft] was that any way!!!! ] Michael Jackson's. The multi-platinum success of his 'Thriller' album provided the impetus for launching a recorded copy into the far reaches of the Universe.
[3) Are they dead? They should be!] Michael Jackson is currently alive; he sleeps in a special anti-aging cryogenic chamber every evening and will not be dying for several of our normal human lifetimes.
