On a vaguely related note, I would like to share the opening statement of the most painfully boring book I have ever been forced to read. I just spent the last two days off work studying for the meteorology component of my too-rapidly-approaching navigation exam. So, when they write the definitive guide to Blatant Utter Lies, right at the top of the list will be:

"The study of cloud forms, physics, structure and development can be both exciting and entertaining."
