... so we are told, when they stubbed their toe it would be a week before the signal reached their brain and they experienced pain.

20 December 2002, you will remember, as if it were only yesterday, is when the BBC reported Phone firms 'flooded' by crime checks:

Almost half a million inquiries are made to the firms every year by police and customs officers, the BBC has learned.

That's about one inquiry per minute. 14½ years later, the "worrywarts" have got the number wrong and they've forgotten about HMRC.

Not all the dinosaurs were wiped out when that comet landed in the Gulf of Mexico.
