June 15, 201015 yr Anyone ever heard of the Rhinoceros Party of Canada. These crazies did some funny stuff. Building one nuclear power plant per household, including monthly distributions of lead underwear to Canadians. Indoor lighting would then be provided by radioactive citizens. Adopting the British system of driving on the left; this was to be gradually phased in over five years with large trucks and tractors first, then buses, eventually including small cars and bicycles last. Repealing the law of gravity Providing higher education by building taller schools Abolishing the environment because it's too hard to keep clean and it takes up so much space Declaring war on Belgium because a Belgian cartoon character, Tintin, killed a rhinoceros in one of the cartoons Counting the Thousand Islands to see if the Americans have stolen any http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhinoceros_Party_of_Canada There's a lot more crazy stuff in the wikipedia article. I know it's a wikipedia reference, but it's down right hilarious.

I actually thought about this recently. I wondered why the "star key" had a name (asterisk), but the pound key didn't. I obviously didn't look into it.

"Please press the octothorpe to skip this message" I like it, and since one of the things I work on is phone systems like that, I'd laugh if they let me put a message like that in place. Maybe in our development environment... "To continue, please press octothorpe"
