Hiya Dmitri smiley - hug

I started subbing A87894472 but then my laptop blew up so it's taken longer than I thought to get back to work! I am still reading it through but I don't anticipate any problems as I was involved in the PR conversation, but I'll be back when I'm done.smiley - cheers

I heard about the computer problem from Elektra. smiley - hug Sorry about that.

>>a +200kg arm fell<<

What I meant was (and I probably wrote it wrong) '200 kg-plus'. In other words, it was at least 200 kg. I don't recognise this '+200'.

If we can't say '200-plus-kilogram' or '200kg+', could we just go for mild inaccuracy and say '200-kilogram arm'?

I'm sure nobody weighed it. smiley - winkeye

It was probably me tweaking that which made my laptop blow up, I must have been having a brainstorm because it doesn't look right to me either. I think I'll put it back to how it was originallysmiley - run

Ah!smiley - eureka

It was your "200+-kg arm" which caused me to change it. The +- bit.

How's about 200kg+ arm?

I have categorised it in the "Misanthropy" section - do you think this is just weird enough to go in the "Stranger than Fiction" category too?
I mean - death by cactus which was only defending itself - if I'd been the judge in cactus court, I'd have let it off... (smiley - laughsmiley - run)
