As the unwilling star of my local hostelry's appearance on BBC Radio Humberside's Sunday Pub Quiz (at the unearthly hour of 11am), we suffered some depressing bias from the part of the DJ, who gave us all the hardest questions:
"How are aborigines helping Australian forecasters predict the weather?"
Well, that baffled us, and lost us the quiz, despite me having comprehensive knowledge of Cornish cheese and The Simpsons.
The answer, for anyone who cares, is 'with the flight of fruit bats', which left us no more enlightened, frankly. Although, the DJ did originally render the questions as:
"How are aubergines helping Australian forecasters predict the weather?"
...which gave all and sundry a good laugh.

Not as good as my quoting on usenet. 
I'm in Glasgow at the moment - I'll talk to you about jobs when I get back next Tuesday.

Okey dokey. Not sure usenet qualifies as fame, does it?

I dunno. It could be that our phone-answerer was really boring.
