Thanks to Docc for saving us from taking ourselves too seriously. Had a good laugh over the ricer revisionist version of the Mad Max universe. "Yo, Max gots mad skillz, yo? Cough up the bling bling for a sweet ride! Nawzzz, yo? "

Is Parliment House down the street from the Halls of Justice?

ANKLECRANKER: Ooo! Ooo! Mista Cranka... I know! I know! The Egyptians built a little wall around where they wanted a base/foundation...then they filled it with water from the Nile. Wherever the water line was on the wall, that's where they put the foundation blocks...and Poof! You had a level foundation base floor.\

So what's the prize? lol.

You are partially correct. The Egyptians did use water to mark level lines, but they first cut trenches into the bedrock, then filled each with water, marked the level lines .and let the water out. Next the stone could be cut/lowered to the level mark, thus making a solid level foundation.

A partially correct answer grants you safe passage in the Wasteland. I give you my word.

I'm looking ofrward to meeting you, Brinze, in Dtown. Just dont kill my pride.

we Had a real bright green, now its a black-and-brown charred moonscape. There are heaps of good roads up this way though, all with minimal population and plenty good curves mmmmm

Halls of Justice lol this place is more like the Halls of Pious Bleating !!

Cranker - when were the pyramids built ? what is your take on the 'air passages' ?
