That's what I love about Pistonheads. We never let a bit of a laugh get in the way of an opportunity to point out a spelling or grammar error.

Danger - Sense of humour failure alert.

It was a joke - maybe no one can understand a "funny" anymore without the requisite "smiley" - the computer equivalent of canned laughter.

A 'smiley' is actually an 'emoticon' (from emotion and icon I presume) and is a way of trying to make up for the lack of body language and tone which are necessary to indicate whether or not a person is joking or not. This is important because we are all from fairly diverse backgrounds here and don't all have the keenly developed sense of humour that accountants are well known for.

I'm thinking of setting up a Comedy Club in which the only performers will be accountants. Do you think it has reasonable prospects of success.

And by the way, I'M Spartacus.

If you are Spartacus and so is everyone else including me, Welcome to the Spartacus Family Reunion.

There must be a web site called "Spartacus reunited" ?
