Shullbitter?
First I tried Google [img]smile.gif[/img] - I am learning - but that returned no results. Then I thought if his last typo was one letter too far right, then what if I tried one letter too far left (hey, he is a devious Donut after all) - that gave me Agykkvurrwe - and that made even less sense. I tried the one letter to the right thing - and that gave me Djizznoyyrt. I tried rearranging those in various other forms - still a blank. Searched for Coay - got an Afghani settlement. Bitter sounds like lager or beer - and the Brits serve that warm - but in this case it could also just mean plain old bitterness. Shull is a guy that belatedly won a Nobel prize for developing a new way of looking at atoms (40 or so years before he won the prize). So I think Donut is saying that this scientist was so bitter about the lack of recognition by the Nobel guys during those 40 years - that he then went and invented something horrid - like warm beer :D - no wonder he has been convicted and sentenced to live on an island amongst parrots -what a galah :D |
There's a farmer not far away from where I live - he's got Emus! But that would be Bavaria and can't hardly be confused with Austria or Australia... [img]smile.gif[/img]

If We ever do get down there (Actually NewZealand is my first choice of places to go) I would be happy to go to dinner with you and yours, as long as you promise not to waylay us in an alley ;) Who knows, you might even get to like me.....well maybe not :D Edit: I just read some of your other posts and have to ask..."Where on earth did you get the idea that I had any intention of ever trying this product?" I have had nothing but disdain for the ads and now for the product. These kinds of deceptive ads are a personal pet peeve of mine which is why I posted here, knwoing that there were Intelligent and well informed Aussies here.</font> [ 01-17-2003, 11:03 AM: Message edited by: MagiK ] |

Oh I wouldn't know if it's properties are myth or not MagiK - all those oils like tee trea and lemon and rose et al all lay claim to some curative and medicinal properties, and while I openly scoff at the more grandoise claims, it is fair to say they are usually anti-bacterial, slippery and have a nice smell to them (not sure about your USA emu oil in that regard though - never seen any to smell). As a side-light, the thesis for my honours degree in Chem Eng was to try and arrive at an alternate (mechanical) means of extracting tea tree oil :D .
I did find it funny that the Emu oil industry is basically a US industry - if there are any "true blue" Australians in the market, then they are minority players indeed - I never found any but I am sure one or two must exist somewhere. Some of the claims I read were alomg the lines of "Australia shares it's generous bounty with America - come learn the Aussie secrets to ________ (insert desired message here - ie skin enhancer, pain remover, burns treatmen, anti aging cream, arthritis cure - you name it, and there seems to be an ad from those US farmers to say this stuff does it). |
