Prince Asks Scientists To Look Into "Grey Goo"

Daily Telegraph ^ | 5/06/2003 | Roger Highfield

[white rose]

And people wonder why I think England needs to become a republic.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Charlie has grey goo between his ample ears.

[Miss Marple]

I don't know about a republic, but they certainly need to seriously consider bypassing Charlie when the Queen passes on. He'd be happier mucking about on his eco-friendly farm with Camilla.

The young guy should be named the heir, and should get some friends who are normal folk. Charles is surrounded by cranks and nutcases.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

What'd you expect from this simple minded fool who has never held a real job ?

[Lee Heggy]

One of Prince Charlies other passions is collecting toilets. He has one of the largest such collections in the world...I suppose everyone needs a place to put their thoughts/ideas into.

[SquirrelKing]

"Pip, pip, lads! I just read this smashing Michael crichton book! You know, the chap who was all about those dinosaurs and whatnot? Well, it got the ol' bean in a whirr..."

[Tax-chick]

Prince Charles is proof the earth is moving closer to the sun.

[Tacis]

No, it's OK. Charlie was watching a Star Trek while his bimbo girl friend was doing him, he got distracted, and thought he was having an original thought. No harm done, you can all go home now.

[PeoplesRep_of_LA]

This has GOT to be a joke. I didn't think it was possible to lose respect for both royalty AND the evironmentalist movement at the same time. Where did this originally come from, the Onion?

[Tony Niar Brain]

I think the monarchy in England right now serves a great purpose; it reminds the world about the kind of people who end up as the monarchs.

[blackdog]

The next generation in the pipeline in all the "enlightened" countries of the world should be a real doozie. The havock that they will inflict upon our world should be signifigant.

Chelsea Clinton, the Prince's, Bill Gates offspring, Warren Buffet's grandkids, and The Donald's proginy should be a real hoot when they take the wheel.

[blackdog]

Tell Charlie not to worry. The gray goo is just Bill Clinton's trail, like an old snail.

[homeschool mama]

**Grey Goo**

Oh. I thought the article was about Grey Davis. ooops.

[NYFriend]

Didn't the Brits pass a law at some point to sepcificly reduce the likelyhood the Prince Charles would speak in pubilc?

[The_Media_never_lie]

If scientists can create these nasty little nanovarmits then surely, they can create some nanonanovarmits to feast upon them.

• Little fleas have tiny fleas
• Upon their backs to bite 'em
• And tiny fleas have tinier fleas
• And so ad infinitum

[Mike Fieschko]

Charlie was watching a Star Trek

I think it was the Doomwatch episode The Plastic Eaters.

[Gorzaloon]

Nanomachines: The Next Dot.Bomb hype?

[Weimdog]

Yes, and also what happens after generations of in-breeding.

[Lee Heggy]

Ah! Merry old England where cousins can marry and watch their children eat crayolas and chase dust motes in the dirty sunlight from palace windows.

[Wonder Warthog]

"Charlie has grey goo between his ample ears.

Nah--"Prince" Charles brain stem terminates at the upper end of his spinal column. The space above that (between the ears) is vacant.
