Their aim is to use your land, and once they have yours ours too, to make the world's largest variety of High-Definition nature programmes. These will be shown via the new atmosprojector. The Earth's Atmos Projection System (APES) will beam images from a constellation of satellites into the night skies of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres each night, as we rest in our green mud huts. The programmes, where we the people can watch a beflippered member of the English upper class ram a microphone up the left nostril of a slightly bemused Gorilla, will be paid for by a 100% tax on blissful days spent reversing the green archaeological damage caused by 10,000 years of human civilization.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24691627.post-84722458435335278322010-04-07T23:20:34.972+01:002010-04-07T23:20:34.972+01:00Sue
