    Yes very - one of the best books I've read in a while. Wasn't sure what to expect but it's really funny

    "The Complex" by Nick Turse.

    That being the Military Industrial Complex or How I stopped worrying and learned to love the bomb.

    Robot Check
    Finished at last.

    Now reading "Scared to death: From BSE to global warming: why scares are costing us the earth" by Christopher Booker and Richard North.

    I see from the receipt that I bought this on the 4th July 2009.

    So far, in the first 100 pages we've covered Eggwina, listeria, BSE, the insane replacement of wooden butcher's blocks with plastic blocks and the subsequent finding that wood was better & more hygenic anyway so the wooden blocks were destroyed for nothing.

    And, of course, the gold plating of each & every EU directive by the numpties in Whitehall.

    Based on the state of her Lady-Garden, I doubt it...
