It's an awesome series just from a science point of view let alone an English one.
But yes, it's kinda unashamedly fun ;p

Prove it, you wouldn't be posting now if we hadn't invented the computer for you!  :P


And it's British, not English. Lets not forget the Scottish, Irish and Welsh contributions here. (Although i am still very proud of the North West of England's contribution?)

I can no longer sit back and allow communist infiltration, communist indoctrination, communist subversion, and the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

Yeah, well we invented the television as part of an insidious plot to rot the world's minds.  Unfortunately, it proved just as effective on our own populace. :p

Didn't think I'd need to, I was talking about posting on the net with a computer, you can't do that with an abacus! I was talking about a modern computer, and advanced calculator yes, but light years from an abacus!

You do realize there were mechanical computers before electronic computers, right? I don't mean simple counting devices like the abacus either.
