    Now this quote has been translated from Welsh in to English and was originally made by one of my anscestors who was a trusted lieutenant of Owain Glyndwr and he went by the name of Cadwaladr ap Gryfydd ap Mabonjack circa 1390.

    Here's one of my favourites:

    "Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say that there is more stupidity than hydrogen, so it's clear that stupidity is a basic building block of the universe."

    Logic according to the great Frank Zappa. <applause>
