Oh dear..

See, this is why all this eco rubbish is never going to take off.

In his valiant effort to save 3 characters and associated energy, wear & tear, processing demands and power (read: carbon impact), Simon uses "½" instead of the word "half". And generated a lot of extra post as a consequences.

It's a bit like an eco-loo. Even when you've just taken a piss you end up flushing twice - too much eco means the small flush doesn't get the job done.

I hope this has lead to comprehension. But lead is a polluter, so maybe not..

Yes, I'm drunk. Why?
