Or is it, after all it is on Wikipedia!

I should have just laughed it off though, rather than provoking it.
Anyway all done now, and a legendary internet thread is born.
We'll be telling our grandkids about it, when they as what was the origin of the term "Whale-Oil"

"the alternatives. Imperil Japan, Hitler's Germany, Stalin's Soviet Union or Tiannmen Square China"

I was on a work for the Dole scheme in the 90's. We built a fence.

The next group's first job was to tear it down, they were tasked with building a wall.
