Carantoc said... So, what is the best kite in 2012 ?
The one you don't have after having your first session on your new kite. lol
Hey is it true hot water will freeze faster than cold water put in the freezer?

... apparently yes but I don't get it, I need Dr Karl to explain it! No proof, just googled it! Interesting subject!
cheers,

Soooooo what I want to know is.. Has anyone figured out how long it takes to cook the elephant??? Using African swallows...
Well based on alverstone's work and wikipedia it would take the energy equivalent of 20,754,500 European swallows to cook an average African Elephant (7,750 kg). Of course the average Asian Elephant at 5,400kg would need 14,461,200 European swallows.
Regarding African Swallows, I assume you are referring to the South African Swallow 'Hirundo Spilodera'. They weigh in at an average of 20 grams where as the European swallow averages at 20.3 grams (5 ounces), giving us 20,447,783 African swallows for an African Elephant and 14,247,488 African swallows for the Asian Elephant.
Not sure why I had to bother writing this, it's obvious really. References

Wikipedia...
The African Elephant is the largest land animal, with males standing 3.2 metres or 10 ft to 4 metres or 13 ft at the shoulder. They weigh around 3,500 kilograms up to a reported 12,000 kilograms. The female is smaller, standing about 3 metres or 9.8 ft at the shoulder.
Asian Elephants are not as large as their African cousins but can weigh around 5,400 kg and stand over 3.4 m or 11 ft tall
My equation, plagarised from an Ethiopian mystic wearing boardshorts outside of his wetsuit, is based on the 'energy-equivilent', or the amount of potential carlories that are in all of a swallow - bones, feathers, organs and flesh. A lot of a bird's energy is going to be wasted as light and sparks when you burn it. On reflection, it is obvious that for this theory to work, and to have the lamb roast just right and 'pink' on the inside, the energy-equivilent has to be measured form swallows that are fat, pre-migration birds before long weeks of flight over any continent make them thin and tired enough to stumble around on their stumpy legs near waterholes or villages and become a quick Ethiopian snack with a mere snatch of the hand. You can use the beak as a toothpick afterwards, apparently.

But we're talking about cooking the elephant, not lamb, so how do I get the elephant pink on the inside?

Epic Doubter!
About the roasting of the elephant - anyone have any good ideas how to ensure the tusks are nice and soft, yet still a bit moist?

Steam them.
Thanks, I think I should be fine to use the bathtub at home to get that done.
I feel proud to be one of the many contributers to this wonderful example of bull****e!

Just a piece of brilliance here, nice work. You could consider Austral ships building you the biggest rotisserie in the world. Sure to cook to a nice medium pink and transfer consistent heat across the tusks. Some alfoil would help retain the heat.
I'm sure the graphic designer in someone here could prepare a picture of this...
