The iPad has a similar problem, so maybe the fix is similar[^].

I said I would!
The answer is EDULCORATOR.
Anyone for the Solution?

Oh, go on then
obscure = cloud
dances = DULCO
muse = ERATO
holding obscure dances = EDULCORATO
run = R
EDULCORATOR = dropping bottle for sweet substance

So following up on Clickerty[^]
I can confidentally say that my brain is in full working order today and I am able to process tasks like the good code monkey I am. One thing though, I've had much less sleep today as I had to drop my father off at the coach station at 4am. Yesterday (blue brain of death day) I couldn't think yet I'd had a respectable amount of sleep.
Anyone up for debugging the human brain line by line?

I tried debugging my brain. It threw an "Object not initialised" exception.

Self modifying code in an unknown language not necessarily limited by logics, sounds fun.

No thanks. Last time I tried to debug the bottleneck the flow has reached breakpoint and there was no option to resume. Only cold boot next morning helped.

Given that it is the second most common element in the universe, why are we running out of it?
I understand that it is important that we have balloons at parties, but I would have thought using it for MRI scanners was slightly more important.
Perhaps there should be a ban on trivial helium use.
There are other gases available that can fill balloons.
(although none as much fun when inhaled).

I'm picking up 4 large helium filled balloons for my FIL's 65th birthday party this evening.
To be fair I think it is a stupid idea and haven't paid for them.

Do you 'pick up' Helium Balloons? Surely the phrase should be 'pulling down' or something similar.

If the bubbles in jiffy bags were filled with helium would postage costs be less?

Well, I think that avoiding ammonia, hydrogen, and carbon monoxide is probably a good idea, but nitrogen is reasonably plentiful.

Balloons filled with that would certainly be very useful for eradicating clowns.

Gasses with a molar mass of less then ten escapes the gravitational pull of the earth.
The tiny amount of Helium there is, has been trapped under a rock layer.
This tiny amount has mostly been used for party balloons.

One nice consequence of this is that, when you do the funny voice thing with helium, you breath effectively goes into space.
I heard this on the Home Service last week.

Sadly it's only the helium that escapes the earth, the methyl mercaptan, 3-mercapto-3-methylbutylformate and allyl methyl sulphide will remain in your vicinity.

Hydrogen is quite radical, especially if you have candles in the room.

If I think back to a thing with Dara O'Brien (apologies for poor spelling) when it is released it's mass is not enough to prevent it leaving the Earth and wander into outer space. Also as a noble gas its in air (is it not?) so is it a case of refining it from the air, or the source if the helium in the air is replaced? <<foot in="" mouth="">> I think the above poster covers it<>

And a few years in the future all the gasses usable for balloons Argon, eh?
You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colon."
