That reminds me of the tests (allegedly) that were carried out when a new
aeroplane was developed.   The Americans wanted to know how the British
tested the breaking strain of the windscreen, and were told that the British
used frozen chickens to simulate the birds flying into the screen.   The
Americans were distraught, as each time they hurled a chicken at the
windscreen, the screen broke.   In despair, they sent messages to Britain,
and were told   "Firstly, you have to defrost the chickens....."

Carol, in East Anglia, UK - where it has been a horribly wet couple of days,
and I do hope the next fortnight will beb better, as I am off to Wales for a
fortnight, and calling in on our daughter on the way back home!
