[Apologies to any innocent alt.dur.testers who don't care, but this
seems the best way of getting to the spodsoc ng ;)]

Hello. Anyone want to buy a broken monitor? I've no idea what's wrong
with it, but it might be fixable and it seems such a waste just to
throw it away...

..unless SpodSoc want it for their box, or you can think of amusing
ways of disposing of it, of course.

Edwin doesn't hold out much hope really.

There are two possible answers to this:

i) Yes, I may have mentioned, my old one broke the other week...
ii) How the heck do you think I managed to post this? Guessing what
keys to press and when?

It might make an interesting fish tank...
