    I don't mind that one as I usually respond with "Shame some of us are tone (optional expletive) deaf"

    I've been focusing "in that space" and I have also noticed some others that are working "in X space"
    Bert for example has been exclusively "in Y space" this week!

    WTF is "in that space" supposed to mean?

    Atomic meant something before atomic power

    Actually, before it makes less sense when used to refer to the "atom" seeing as how an atom is not the smallest unit!

    started a topic Tulip Phrase Of The Day

    Tulip Phrase Of The Day

    Just been in a meeting and they mentioned:

    "Getting down to the atomic level"

    If I worked at Fukishama I could agree with that type of language, but I don't so cut it out!

Working...
