Aww that's lovely. He'll be OK. One of my cats lost a leg when she was a kitten. She adjusted very quickly and now she gets around like Speedy Gonzalez. She leaves everyone in her dust!

And wow look at this little jigger that is about to revolutionise washing clothes
To use it, a person drops the Dolfi into a sink full of water, dirty clothes and laundry detergent.
Powerful ultrasonic soundwaves are emitted by a transducer which travel through the water, forming tiny, high pressure bubbles which implode to create strong jets of water that remove dirt.\
The device can be used on any fabric - including cotton, silk, lace and even cashmere - and uses 80 times less energy than a standard washing machine.
No SCRUBBING.
Better for your clothes, the environment and power bills - looks like a little winner.
$89 & available sometime this year.

I found the pandas. 
Thanks kxk, that was a good one. I got a Where's the Wookiee? book in my Christmas stocking and I also have Where's Osama? and the old classic Where's Wally? Love those find 'em games.
Here are some interesting advances in technology over the years ...

DRUGS & ALCOHOL
World drug survey
http://www.globaldrugsurvey.com/
Take the survey, anon.
So, young are drinking less, middle aged are becoming alcoholics.
From a fascinating article -
http://www.smh.com.au/national/youn...rows--often-on-the-quiet-20150821-gj4y9d.html
Looks like our horrible boozing culture actually can change.
And I am facing a lot of my friends turning into acquaintances simply because I don't drink, and they are sliding into alcoholism.
It seems to be an epidemic - at least 7 over the past 10 years are fully drinking in the morning and all day long.
Anyone else noticing this?
And it can be quite horrible, with different people now in combat with each other, or in drunk exile. And you try and organise anything social, nightmare.

Or, the alcoholics are becoming middle aged.
There's been a long, long decline in consumption since the 1970s. Hopefully binge drinking is a dying fad too. One of the ugliest things about our scoiety.
Seems the opposite with (middle-aged) me, I wouldn't know who to call nowadays who would be up for more than one or two. A lot of my female friends don't drink at all. Probably because they've all got active kids on their hands.

There are some very nice variations of this here, including mathematical/implementation details:I'll post some in the Caturday thread when I have the time.
