Ayyyy, ma-a-ate, good one ay? And you're off out of the blocks with a roundup? Bonza!
On what to call them (see comments on prev thread) i like the word Furphy but it does mean a fable or fabrication. How about 'The Drum'? Makes sense to me with 'whats the drum?' a once common term of general enquiry.
On how to group the stories, i think its an arcane and subtle field of endevour with room for many views - so please yourself .
I just have to repost CarbonSinks catch of ..Kohler on telly in front of the peak oil graph.
I like the furphy story (I never knew that was how the word originated) but like you I think the word now means fabrication or suchlike, which doesn't give the right impression.
We'll put it to a popular vote and then make a dictatorial decision on the name I think. "The Drum" is a good option too.
Nice screenshot - I bet Alan would love to see that one !
