Same here. I saw the story at news.com.au ...
... so I followed it up at ThruVision's web site.
I believe this is the European patent that describes the technology:

He' ALLMAN now. No need for trains, he can get well and truly driven by walking across the road.

Phil moved? Darn, I was going to be social and pop over for a cup of tea and some toast.
Dave.
Yep he's now at 8 Tintern Rd, Ashfield. It's just around the corner from the old Prospect Rd bed-sit dump. see
BTW We aren't sure of the flat number *yet* but bassett the wonder dog was going for walkies there this weekend I believe so we should know soon enough.
Cheers TT
Sorry, there is no toast. The toaster is broken...

Ah, well there you go, I'm a bit behind the times obviously. He must love that area. First Lackey St, then Prospect Rd, now Tintern Rd, all within a cooee. No moving sale?
Isn't there still a case of beer up for grabs if he nabs a photo?
Dave.
Well yes but there is back up ;-) Philthy has (on loan) some Quad ESL57s. Now for the uninitiated these things look like old fashion toasters or open fireplace fire guards.
Now the instructions for use are as follows:
1) Place bread on ESL outer grates 2) Select heavy rock music (or Organ recital) with bass 3) Use near maximum power setting on any amp 4) The diaphragms will arc out on the stators causing an electrostatic discharge 5) Hey presto - zapped toast ;-)Tips: ACDC/Deep Purple for crispy - burnt. Phil Collins/Queen for light brown Beatles/Stones for warm bread The Wiggles for soft, room temp bread The Mormon Tabernacle Choir or The Osmonds for instant soft on ;-)
I hope this dispels any fears of not having toast at Philthy's ;-)
Cheers TT
PS Bring scones just in case. You know how Philthy likes to tinker with these things ;-)

Ahhhhh..... that fine establishment ;-) You do know why Philthy left there don't you? Well he had a neighbour that put up a security camera to monitor the"strange" comings and goings from Philthy's flat and it drove him insane (well, yeah it did). To the point where he was trying to work out how to monitor the EM radiation from the guy's computer to see what he was up to.
then Prospect Rd, now Tintern Rd, all within a cooee.
You mean walking distance? No car, no license so the options are limited ;-)
No moving sale?
Sale!!? Not on Council verge collection day!
BTW If you can recall the old dossers that used to push wheelbarrows around then you will get the idea of PA's idea of removalists ;-)
Isn't there still a case of beer up for grabs if he nabs a photo?
I wasn't aware of that. However, there would be extensive gratitude and probably a lot of alcohol to anyone that dropped by and convinced Philthy that his antisocial behaviour should cease ;-)
Dave.
So the big question now is "when's the hovel warming party"?

Well, that could only happen on 2 days out of a month... also a question of which day of week does mental disability payments fall on?
A bit like the Fu-Fme .

Dead right, when the Moon is full.
To save the poor fellow any undue expense I would have thought that everyone would bring a plate and their own drinks and not to mention their own personal media player (in case the big Quads are down again) ;-) Also since there is a park over the road a cricket or baseball bat for when the fun starts.
But OTOH if Philthy only invites friends then 1 packet of chips and a small Coke will be more than enough :-)
Cheers TT
What WILL he do with the leftovers?

In the older suburbs of Sydney the rats are the size of cats ;-)
Cheers TT
Is that how Phil gets his meat proteins? Toss out a few chips, and catch the rats for lunch?
-- aioe.org is home to cowards and terrorists Add this line to your news proxy nfilter.dat file
He's just moved, as he ran out of rats at his last address, An I bloody missed him by "that much"
Better luck next time. OTOH, who knows? If he gets hungry enough, he might chew that chip off his shoulder. Even better, he could eat all of his fingers, and won't be able to type anymore.

You didn't miss him by much. The little tosser moved just around the corner to Tintern Rd, Ashfield, near Allman Park. Bigger rats? Maybe not - just a lower class of rat. :P
Are you saying that Phil will fit right in, then?
