I take that back. According to Wikipedia...

The world's first sheep dip was invented and produced by George Wilson of Coldstream, Scotland in 1830.


Was it like Houmous or tararsmal... tarasala ... those other dips?


No. More like Tsatziki :D

Talattouree :wink:

I spoke to the Capt and he gave me permission to use Ottomania and Ottoman Remnant etc etc. Max sends his regards. Both are busy fighting Hellenic Otoman Kaos although the Capt lost his boat again. :roll:

They send you their regards. :D

:lol:

Let me ask you whose universities have superior rankings? Australian or Hellenic Ottoman? I thought education was important for Greeks but obviously not important enough! :lol:

Laser eye surgery first performed in Greece. First successful use of artificial hearts and stem cells pioneered in Greece.

What have the Aussies invented other than the sheep dip?


Many things! You not seriously going to compare Greece with Australia in Medical Science and technology?

Everything from Ballistic Missiles, Satellites, scamjets, over the horizon radar, night vision, Flight Data Recorders known as black box, pacemakers and the list goes on and on.

That would be a laugh! :lol:

This is in danger of turning in to a scene from one of my most fav films ... Life of Brian ... "What have the Romans ever done for us?"



You got to laugh! :lol:

Yes the Greek Ottomans are always claiming credit for everything. :lol:

They even tell us natives that they came to our island and bought us civilization when the fact of the matter is, we had our own script when they were stil swinging from tree to tree! :lol:

Actually, you would be surprised. Their are something like 100 different native languages from as many tribes. But they did not have a text as far as we know. And their artwork dates back some 40,000 years.

Also, the boomerang should be viewed as an amazing hunting implement/instrument. It is a precision instrument that functions by the laws of Physics, namely aerodynamics. It is basically a flying wing.

So if the aborigines were Hellenic, they would claim to have invented the first flying wing 40,000 years ago thus laying the foundation of modern day aviation. But the aborigines are humble creatures unlike the Greek Ottomans that frequent this forum. :lol:
