Pidgeons smarter than SA telephone company workers and many American CWA union members. CWA = Communications Workers of America.

Remember when South Africa was a modern city, before it was turned over to people who have never been able to run anything well?

This depends a lot on what the pigeon carried. As the saying goes: never underestimate the bandwidth of a stationwagon loaded with tapes hurtling down the highway.

Networking 101: Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes.
But the latency is a killer.

Creepy. Here I am talking stupid people and I spell Pigeon with a D in it. I thought there was a d in pigeon.
Is there two ways to spell it or was I thinking of Walter Pidgeon the actor?

LOL.
This thread could become the source of really cheep cheep jokes with people pecking away at what would have been a good story that JoeProBono was trying to put to seed out here for discussion and instead we have to resort to baud puns.
