Drowned ants, even drowned in Coca Cola, will revive if dried out as well.
Roger Thomason 09 December 2008 00:03:55
No Tony, they crawled out from the salt and flew away..True story..see PM.
Tony Irwin 08 December 2008 21:46:42
I think Roger is suggesting that the flies are dead, and that the ashes or salt are simply producing an inanimate reaction in the dead tissues, causing the legs to move.
Roger Thomason 08 December 2008 19:57:57

Please note that the slowness of the site during the last few days was a result on a DDoS attack on the server (not necessarily directed at this site).
javanerkelens 03 December 2008 16:22:43
Fast again !! Grin Joke
Paul Beuk 03 December 2008 11:52:48
The slow site is apparently a network issue within the data center and not a server issue as such. They are working on it, so I am told.
