Wow! It's carbon neutral! That´s quite visionary!

As for the Congolese guys, they´d better enjoy themselves while they can. What they´re doing is a bit like IT used to be; none of us really understood the point of it all, but it was a good laugh and people paid us for it. Some day the consultants will arrive with their ISO9001 protocols and their Lean Six Sigma and all the fun will be over.

I like the commentator's assessment; 'Troposphere cinq n'est pas partie dans la bonne direction'.

He could almost be a tester, n'est ce pas?

For a laugh, why else?

If I could get the government to pay me to do that kind of thing, I would.
