h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Who remembers the ever so fantastic "Tiswas" and of course the legendary "Spit the Dog"?
When is came to gobbing he was the King!

May I remind you of:

Thank you for applying to become a field researcher for the Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

At the end of this email are a set of rules which you must read and accept before you can complete the registration
process. ( Right. Rules. The lawyers said we had to have some. They asked us what rules we wanted.
We said we didn't really know much about rules and couldn't we just have the same rules that everyone else has because they seem to be getting along all right so therefore they must be quite good rules, quite effective. The lawyers said that wasn't a problem and we could have exactly the same rules that everyone else used but if we thought that would make their bill any
smaller then we had another think coming. We said fair enough we'll have exactly the same rules as everybody else then and since we're paying through the nose for it we'll have one extra rule while we're at it. And they said all right, we suppose so, if you really must. So here they are:

3. No spitting.

Or are you a member of ARSE?

I am a member of ARSE, and I wrote this page.
It was -because- h2g2 had Rule 3 that I wrote it.
However, disemmation of phlematic material is not against the rules - only actually hocking it up and leaving a horrible mess is.
So, is it against h2g2 rules to spit away from the computer? It seems pretty simple (when you've got lawyers, however, little is simple...)

Okay, as you are both a member of ARSE and not *actually* spitting, but merely examining it, I'll let you off!

I like the descriptive title 'ever green oyster' but I'm not sure which catagory it comes under.

Ever Green Oyster? Perhaps that's the variety found growing under desks, next to the more normal white ones [chuddy,aka Chewing Gum]??
