Your scholarship at finding and cataloguing the crazy world of theism reminded me of ''Bernard Quatermass'' who ran a similar spot on the BBC religion and Ethics board.

Not everyone remember s the Teevision 'Quatermass', my mum said she was terrified for years! i've since seen Quatermass & the Pit and udnerstant!.

Lots of people would look at the picture in NS's link and not recognise or understant the meaning. You can do anything with Lego and Legoland is marvellous place to visit!

Lego is clever & versatile.. Electric Technic Lego is wonderful too, bought that for kids (me and spouse loved it too).

I too remember the Quatermass serials. The first, The Quatermass Experiment, involved British astronauts returning from space and turning into vegetables in Westminster Abbey. Oh, the symbolism ...

Bur Vlad was not talking about the TV programmes but a contributor to the predecessor of this formum who called himself Bernard Quatermass.
Does Magna Carta mean nothing to you? Did she die in vain?
